Demario Bailey, 15, fatally shot during robbery attempt, police say suspects in custo

OK, have it your way. The black community recognizes that the massive number of black male youth on black male youth murder is a problem, but they've not bothered to do anything about it

Let's review

You started saying that black people "from seemingly every corner" repudiated Cosby and that proved that black people didn't think that black on black violence was a problem.

When I pointed out that he wasn't "repudiated from seemingly every corner", you admitted that you were wrong, but insisted that you were still right that black people didn't think that black on black violence was problem because black on black continued to increase.

Now that I've pointed out that black on black violence has *decreased*, you admit that you were wrong, but continue to insist that you are *still* right that black people don't think that black on black violence is a problem because "they've not bothered to do anything about it"

And of course, even though your claim that "they've not bothered to do anything about it" is just as wrong as your previous claims were, you will continue to insist that you are right that black people don't think that black on black violence is a problem. No matter how many times I prove you wrong, you will continue to insist that you are right even though every "fact" you argue is wrong.

As I said, there is no way I can make a bigot have the realization that they are bigots. It is something they have to do on their own. Maybe one day, they will come to the realization that the racist ideas they believe are the truth are actually nothing but a pile of lies. Maybe they will realize that the only reason they believed the lies is because they wanted the lies to be trueso they could continue to blame black people and their desire to attack black people is more important to them than the truth

But they will have to come to those realizations on their own. I can only lead a bigoted horse to water.

What do these communities say to the stop and frisk policy procedure? I've heard that this reduces gun violence, as it gets more of these weapons off of the street. Is this an acceptable policy to implement?

You've also heard that black people repudiated Bill Cosby, that black on black violence has been increasing, and that black people have done nothing but "blame Whitey" for it.

Funny how all these things you have heard are all things you would like to be true, but are not true.

Who the **** is "Uncle Sugar"?

Of course change has to come from the inside; that said, I'm curious as to how protests are going to keep more fathers in the home.

Uncle Sugar is the US government that bestows rewards for personal economic failure via about 80 different, means tested, "safety net" programs. Those programs generally require dependents to magically convert a poor person into a needy household.

Marches are generally done to make a point or take a stand on an issue that is maybe not as well known or is volatile. I think everyone knows absentee fathers are not a good thing - who is arguing that point? Who would they be marching against?

That is one of the more annoying fallacies. The Hornets wore "I can't breathe" t-shirts last night, and some lady was saying if they want to stand up for that issue, they "have to stand up for all controversial issues". That argument sucks, and it makes no sense at all.

I would say that the 72% of folks giving birth to out-of-wedlock children are supporting that idea, aided in large part by the "safety net" that declares poor folks to magically become needy households, deserving of public assistance, with the addition of a dependent (or two or three).

Not only does the "safety net" aid divert tax money away from needed infrastructure improvement and maintenance, those kids without daddies are a very large part of the crime problem - much larger than any police misconduct which seems to warrant the attention of the race hustling, poverty pimps and offers excuses to riot, loot and burn. It is odd that private funds are needed to help those that suffer damage from those riots (and other crime) yet the absence of that "baby daddy" allows for (requires?) use of public funds.

In reality, most of the money spent on safety net programs goes to people who are not poor.

Yep, but it does turn a McJob into something close to a middle class lifestyle if one plays their cards right.

Talk is cheap. What are you and your like doing about it? Nothing but sitting on the sidelines feigning concern.

Trying really hard to get people like you to actually engage in the discussions. But black lives only matter to you when it is a white guy (and preferably a cop) that takes it.

There's no controversy here. There is no state sanctioned injustice here, only a tragedy.

The only question is what led to these individuals callously robbing and killing a victim over a jacket? What is wrong with those persons that they would do such a thing? What can we do to prevent such crimes? What can we do to stop such people from behaving in such a manner?
Click to expand...

Well, no, it's leadership sanctioned injustice. It points squarely at those styled as Black leadership that the only time they show their "concern" is when a white person kills a black person. When the huge problem in the black community is black folks murdering other black folks.

Yet the so called black leadership fails to address, politicians black and white fail to address it.

Sharpton must be devestated that he can't blame a White cop for this.
 
Re: 15 yr. old Black Teen killed during attempted robbery

Asking the Sharptons of the world to look within is racist in itself. Or at least that's what he would say.
 
Re: 15 yr. old Black Teen killed during attempted robbery

Being racially profiled by the police is a real problem in the black community.

No it's not. Just ask any white person here and they will tell you.
 
Re: 15 yr. old Black Teen killed during attempted robbery

The blacks? I mean, it's their fault their black, right?

This whole thing seems like a ridiculous argument to me. Are we really arguing about which is a worse problem, white cops killing blacks, or blacks killing blacks? If you ask me, anyone killing anyone is a problem. Why can't we address both issues equally?

I find it hard to understand that a person reaction to Eric Garners death being one of "Oh yea, well, black people kill more black people a year than police!" It's a nonsensical argument.

The race hustlers can't get any political mileage out of this kid's death. Have you noticed that nary a Liberal has posted a single word of remorse about this kid's death? They to busy screaming racism, I guess.
