Well its about time I didnt get roasted for making that comment. Its ok to have the BET, Ebony, NAACP, Ntl Black Law Assoc. and yet thats pride. You have one White person making a factual comment about the level of violence amongst the black community, and you are labeled a racist. Ridiculous. And it fuels further anger and hatred. Stereotypes are created by those who maintain them, not those who label them.

The real kicker is that he will never be punished…he will be out of jail and back out committing violent crimes in no time.

You have people like this in all communities and you can’t keep on running from them,sooner or later you have to take a stand and fight back! And don’t expect to much help from the local police departments when you do. Me and the wife are now a two person community watch for our area,day and night. these kind of people don’t like to be watched by people in the community or the police and will generally move on if it continues, to more secluded parts. Apathy in the community is usually the reason these kind of people get a foot hold in a area. So far we are doing fine and seeing alot more of our neighbors and trying to build a closer knit community,but you could be reading about us in the obits ,because of one area we go through but we’re not going to cut and run and I’ll be here,GOD willing, till my untimely or other wise demise BOONDOCK.

I know exactly what you mean mremann83,  everyone turns a blind eye for some reason.  It’s so obvious.  There are no morals among them at all, it doesn’t matter what community they live in.  Give it time and they will ruin other communities, they are ruining mine.  At this rate I’ll be living close to the state line in about 5 years.

How many times do I have to get on this web site and see this? Everyday there is another man just like him doing these same things. Everyone reading knows what I mean by that comment. Its the dang truth and its covered up by claims of racism. There are no morals in that community.

Wow .. he looks like a fine one!!!!
