    I just don't get it.

    If I were to phonetically recount what Rodney King said, I would write it this way: "Can we, can we all get along?..."

    Somehow, that morphed into the popular saying: "Why can't we all just get along?"...which is the way I remember the viral phrase/punchline from my 20s.

    ....I don't think there is sufficient information to impugn someone over a dialect that he says come from one source and is assumed comes from somewhere else?

    In fact, the "caint" seems classic Ken Curtis to me.

    But geez, if we ever needed to heed the words of Rodney King before something goes sideways like:

    Worst case scenario is they somehow get Trump out, then go after the new President Pence, get him out and they have their dream of President Nancy.

    Granted, my ebonics is a little rusty, but I think it would've gone something like "Why we can't be gettin' along?", not "Why cain't we all get along?" The latter being more Festusesque... And Rodney King used neither.

    You are absolutely racist! Ebonics was sold to us as a legitimate "language" based on the ancestral languages of black Africans' native languages in linguistic structure. Apparently, in the tribal languages, for example, "Does he" translates to "Do he be". I'm serious.
