I'm now a minority, I live in Atlanta. The culture here is toxic. "Fathers" nowhere to be found. Violence, drug deals....but to speak out against these self-defeating behaviors automatically gives you the title of racist.
Nobody to blame but the evil white man, jut ask anybody on here.

While you're at it, could you explain what's Asian, Hispanic, and White culture too?
Of course there are immigrants that bring their own traditions and culture but I'm talking about mainstream American black culture. That doesn't discount the way a LOT of folks are around here. I would know, I live and work amongst them. There are exceptions, but a LOT flaunt money. A LOT have kids outside wedlock. A LOT of them don't push their kids towards academic excellence. Statistics don't lie for the sake of political correctness. There's truth to stereotypes whether you want to admit it or not. Why do YOU think most black children are born to single mothers? Do you think it's because those single mothers were raised to respect themselves, get good educations and work hard?

Slightly disagree. There are people who obey the law and raise well adjusted families that are apart of the "community", they just can't afford to live in a more affluent area. I consider myself in that category, but I'm working to change that starting with school later this year amongst other things.

That's why you need to be more specific with your posts instead of of categorizing everyone. Flaunting money ie materialism isn't just a Black thing, we live in a materialistic society. I won't argue the wedlock issue, but as far as academic excellence goes just like there are alot of parents who don't push for their kids to do well, there's also alot of parents who DO push for their kids to do well. Finances, the environment, as well as the lack of funding in many inner city schools get in the way. Your personal experiences don't confirm anything.

Why do I think "most" Black children are born to single mothers? Well, I think Black males need to step up their Sh*t as well as the Black females getting impregnated by lowlifes. People in general need to start taking responsibility for their actions.

"Do you think it's because those single mothers were raised to respect themselves, get good educations and work hard?" Maybe they were maybe they weren't, who knows? He could've lied to her and acted like he was going to be there, she could've been a loose woman, idk it takes two to tangle. Again, personal responsibility.

If there is a big issue between the police and Blacks, then it will have to be Blacks working within the system, instead of burning down towns, that will fix it. Everyone else has as much interest in it as they do a $250 pair of Air Jordans.
Agreed.

So you already know all the facts and have determined that the officer was wrong? That's pretty quick, you should offer your services to the Madison PD, I'm sure they would welcome it.

Why can't blacks raise their children to be good citizens? Maybe if the black illegitimate rate was not over 70% and black fathers were true men and raised their children instead of moving on to baby momma #4 this would not happen.
New rule: Recognizing those facts makes you a racist. You must no longer recognize them as facts.
