that was absolutely rude. would you address another white guy as a "brotha"? I think not. you used a term that is generally regarded as one of "thier words". it has been my experience from observing blacks that they speak differently from white people and seem to take offense to white people addressing them in the manner they use to communiate amongst themselves. they feel it is disrespectful. just like the word 'nigga'; it is thier word

Uh, is that called stereotyping? Or racial profiling?

stereotyping/racism

so you honestly can say that you address both black AND white people with 'brotha'?

I use the title <font color="green"> 'sir or mister' </font> and talk to everybody the same way.
