RC is bad guys, I don't care who says what, it has lost it's spark, they are confused. Those Mamas talking about an aeroplane, I mean really, why are we dumbing down our black mamas like they are stupid and we call it drama, entertainment. It's just an insult to me. So many black characters there on RC are written like they are stupid, dumb people and we are supposed to be proud and say it represents us. I'd never accept that.

You can see it's a white team writing there.
