I Was So Hoping .....and Then %$#@

[Transformer]

Didn't know the guy that raped and murdered the Japanese lady on Okinawa was Black. Not with a name of Kenneth Shinzato. It turns out Shinzato is his WIFE's last name.

 

[CarefreeinChicago]

Yeah the name mislead me as well bastard

I've never met a non-black person named Kenneth. I thought that was one of the names that belonged to us like Andre

How about Kenny Chesney (country music) , Kenny G. That's all I got for now.

Then there's televangelist Kenneth Copeland and actor Kenneth Branagh.

Off topic:

I know a couple white "Kenneths", several Italian "Andres", and a few white men named Darius.

I've encountered white Kendras, Chantels, and Crystals.

Wonder if it's b/c I live down South?

Kenneth Cole

ETA:
The blackest male name ever has to be Tyrone... followed closely by Leroy

 

[sj10460]

yes, but Andres is different from Andre.

I know two white Chantels and a few white Crystals. Is Crystal a black name? I know a few non-black hispanics named Crystal.

 

[sj10460]

Kenneth Cole

****, well I guess it's not a black name

 

[tru4reele]

I always thought Darryl was a black name until working in customer service.

What about Ken 0f Ken and Barbie? That's about as white as you can get.

 

[jeanghrey]

Boy this thread took a sharp detour lol....on a s/n about names, I swear every "Willie" I ever met has been a black man while every "Bill" I ever met has been white...what up with that?

I've never met a black man with the name Kenneth.

 

[Bunnyhaslonghair]

y'all are humorously off topic in such a dark thread.

Jerome and Dwayne are tired for third place. I'm trying to think if I have encountered any white guys named Terrence.

 

[Bunnyhaslonghair]

Someone feel free to read me for ignorance, but why is this making international headlines? Women here and other places get raped and murdered often. Is there something special about this case?

Because of the U.S. military base in Okinawa. Marines and other people have raped local women and Okinawans were holding protests saying they want the U.S. out. This has been going on for a while.

 

[Bunnyhaslonghair]

Thanks @Farida !

My bff's dad is black. His name is Kenneth.

The three who raped a 12 year old there in 1995 were black too.

And dont forget that white actor from back in the day named Tyrone Power.

 

[cutiepiebabygirl]

yes, but Andres is different from Andre.

I meant like more than 1 Andre...lol...plural of Andre...not Andres.

I've met two Hispanic Kenneth's. That was unusual.

 

[Transformer]

It just so happens that while I was in command on Okinawa, my lead engineer was Kenneth Shapiro, a white guy.

I remember stuff like this.....the protests are very orderly and very peaceful. The U.S. will have to bring some ca-Ching but this is a bit of unusual since he's a contractor. I wonder which company. Not surprised that he's married to a Japanese lady....almost all the men that are permanently stationed are.

Only Leroy I know is white

Do they all take the wife's name too?

 

[gn1g]

I haven't heard this story so I googled his name and this dude shoved feces down the womans throat! that alone deserves a death sentence. I guess he was having a flash back from when the yt pepo use to do that to slaves.
