Now this explains why I recently saw a video of Jett basically saying how he wanted to meet or was a fan of several black actors/artists and such.  It just did not feel right. It’s probably their way of trying to say he is not racist.  
Now I wonder even more if actually hurt his knee. I watched the video of him hurting his knee and could not understand how that foot dab hurt his knee.  Maybe someone told him to stay away from the sport for a bit. So maybe the injury was fake? 

Oh and there is no such thing as reverse racism here in America.  Black people do not have the power here in America to be racist.  Prejudice Yes but not Racist.

Don. You know me. You know I often joke about racial stuff. I love to laugh and make others laugh, even about my skin color. But this whole situation sucks.  The Lawrence’s should have kept the firing and lawsuit private. Especially knowing this video is out there. 
I would have thought Jett was even more amazing if he had offered an explanation and apology immediately.

Oh and my name is Craig. Not Andy.  Back in the 80s not many black guys rode motocross (except at Ascot raceway 😂) here in Los Angeles. So often times I would be the only black guy at the tracks or on the trails. 

So my white buddies would call me Brosho in reference to Andy also being pretty much the only black guy at the races.  I also have a couple of other black buddies who told me how their white riding friends would also refer to them as Brosho, because of Andy also being a rarity in the sport.  That’s why I have used “Brosho”.  My feelings are mine and not the feeling of Andy in any way.  So I hope no one confronts Andy about my comments here.  It’s also why I don’t post much here anymore.  I tried to change the name a bit to “CraigBrosho” but don’t know how.

Thanks for posting Craig, I'm glad you are sharing the perspective from a black man who loves and rides moto.  I hope the feelings you've shared specifically about Jett's N word video will make others here re-think their opinion about whether or not it's a nothing burger.  Most of us here are not black, so it's easy for people to brush it off like no big deal.  However, your opinion just goes to show everyone that the video is definitely offensive to blacks, and it should be dealt with in a professional manner.

Not everyone is going to agree with you about Jett's injury/racism/etc, but I hope everyone can agree that you deserve an apology.

Thanks.  My point about maybe a fake injury is because often times when scandals or drama similar to this comes out on celebs and athletes, their handlers tell them to lay low or stay out of the public’s eye for a while,  that is what my opinion is based on.  None of us really know much of anything except seeing an actual video of Jett using those words. Some here dismiss it due to his age at the time. But I guarantee you if I had done anything either criminal or abusive towards someone else at the age of 14 It would not have simply brushed away as a childish act.  I know for fact.  Because I have seen very harsh sentences towards other black friends who were 14 and younger doing “Childish things”.

Do your own actual research and don't listen to the "news" and what they told you racism is. It has nothing to do with "power" over anyone, that is a straight up lie to completely undermine thae actual issue.

Racism is prejudice because of race, period. End of story. You can be prejudiced and not racist, but you can't be racist and not prejudiced...it's just the further definition when it's based only on race. So yes, ANY nationality can be racist against any other nationality. Stop trying to make anyone other than the minority feel like they are the problem even if they aren't racist in the slightest bit.

"Reverse racism" isn't a thing. It's either racism or it's not. Doesn't matter what color you are.

You are absolutely wrong about it’s definition.  Especially it’s definition here in America.  The word Racism here in America involves a lot of power and control of people by race.  It’s not just “Pre Judgement” of others.

How come you didnt name yourself after a white motocross racer? It’s because you cant stand to look at white people.  I heard you ride dirt bikes because you can only be around white people with helmets on, as to hide their true identity.  I heard you eat chocolate cake because you’re so against the white cake.  Your hatred for all things white is showing through.  You even throw out the egg whites when you make eggs!!  Even though your eggs are scrambled.

Never really thought of it like that.

I thought it was pretty neat...Dennis even followed the sport. 

Good to see you posting again and hope you are doing well.

The dude was the agent of the biggest name in the sport and he absolutely fucked it. A one in a million opportunity and he throws it away. It's honestly embarrassing to see him desperately trying to bring Jett down after he ruined his own career. Having this footage on hand tells every single professional rider that if he becomes your agent he will be actively gathering dirt to blackmail you.
