Exactly. Their lives only matter when another race is involved and in the US that race is usually white. Like I've said before, they need to admit certain truths about themselves as a race instead of expecting everyone else to fix all their problems. And other races need to stop sucking up to them, using them as comfort cushions when rejected by their own, and stop patronizing their destructive cultures.

Or how about the fact that the Blacks who do bring Black on Black violence:

1) Get shouted down
2) Don't like to talk about it publicly. Gets mentioned, but at the dinner table, in church,etc.

It is being mentioned, and it isn't like there aren't Blacks who don't care. There have been marches against the violence in Black areas. On a thread many months back, I posted videos about it. That doesn't make the news the way Ferguson does. Not that there aren't Blacks who care. More like many Blacks don't like to speak about it publicly, or when they do, many get shouted down. Or in some cases, there is a tendency to get used as a confirmation bias.

As a race? I as Black man, I'm doing my part. I'm not out there causing problems. Alot of Blacks are already doing their part. Why not go after the underclass segment of the Black population, instead of Blacks as a whole? How hard is that?

I searched Yahoo News, CNN and USA Today to see if there was any mention of this incident. I found nothing but you bet had it been a black shot by two whites this would be plastered all over the news. Why does the media love to bend over to appease blacks and cover up the problems going on with black culture. The media tries its best to make it seem everyone is against blacks when in fact blacks are their own worst enemies.

It's blacks who committed this terrible crime.
I swear this has o be the funniest post I've ever seen on CD.

'War' & Segregation. Aww man I'm in tears.

Don't feed into it. These are some of the same folks who get all sensitive when you make a generalized statement about police, but do the same and act like Blacks are a monolithic group of people who worship Jesse & AL. Lol.

was a Chow mix, very scary looking ...nor I have a big, 100% German Shepherd.
No more cuddly sweet medium sized dogs for me.

May his family find some sort of peace....

May his family find some sort of peace?

Man goes out to walk the dog and is murdered. How do you wrap your head around that?

No more father, no more husband, what happens to the family going forward?

Comments like yours remind me of a 911 widow who was told right after the attack, "every thing is going to be alright", she turned to the person and said "No, it isn't. That is the dumbest thing you could have said to me. It's never going to be alright ever again".

Well, it's easy to judge the whole rather than look at individuals.

And for anyone who thinks Blacks do not care about Black on Black violence.
