speak really bad english.

Any time you point out that many inner city black people speak bad English, people call you racist. It doesn't matter if you differentiate between 'some' and 'all', and it certainly doesn't matter that it's true.

So I propose we change the name of AAVE, or African American Vernacular English, to CVE, or Caucasian Vernacular English.  Because it's not a black thing.  Ebonics will now be known as Whitonics and the racial stereotype of blacks speaking bad English will be a thing of the past.

Y'know what I'm saying, dawg?
