Then the rest of us have to deal with the "baby" who ended up killing or stealing or whatever because in fact he didn't have a good home life. And so the door goes round and round and round. All because someone couldn't keep her legs closed or his penis to himself or otherwise engage in personal responsiblity like a normal human should. And then what? The kids run to gangs and other thugs for their father figures. And door goes round and round and round. Again.

That's the reality. Who gives a schit about who actually posted the picture. I don't give a damn if it's George Zimmermans brother or George Jeffersons wife.
What amazes me is the amount of blacks that actually support/defend this behavior or blame everyone else.

Is there something not clear about my post? Apparently you think that I blamed you for the actions of others. The reality is that I blame those who are responsible....which would be those who perpetuate the horrific side of black culture. And if that is in fact you, then yes, I am blaming you. If not, then what's your problem?

This post is dumber than the last. You talk about "black culture" and statistics then contradict yourself by saying you don't blame people like me. Now which one is it, are black people as a whole to blame for the actions of the poor, ignorant, and criminal minded or are those people responsible for their behavior, regardless of race? Don't back peddle now, we all know what you initially meant.

Emotion must be left out of this debate.

People need to quit acting as if blacks as a whole benefit the nation.

Are all blacks criminals? Of course not. Are all blacks bad people? Nope.

Your argument is to make a generalized statement about an entire population that you have no connection to what so ever.

You are basically doing the exact same thing you have had a problem with on this site.
He had a good home life?

His parents are divorced and he was staying with his dad who is shacking up with his girlfriend.

I suppose in some eyes, that's a 'good home life', lol.

When people make idiotic statements like "As a whole though, the group is detrimental to the nation." or "That ethnic group is ill as well.", what exactly are they expecting or insinuating needs to be done about it? Extermination, concentration camps? Makes one wonder what certain people, who think they are an honorary white person would do. Would they shout over and over again "I am not like those other *******!", and think that would save them? What allegedly happened with the baby is highly unlikely. It is much more likely that a White person is killed by another White person than a Black person and Trayvon Martin was killed, he wasn't the killer. Every time a White person does something sick and crazy, race is left out of the discussion. RACISTS ARE DETRIMENTAL TO THE NATION.

Yeah and living in a home with two parents who hate other or raise their kids to be hateful bigots is so much better? Way to judge a book by its cover.

As a whole poverty and racism are bad for the nation.
