Don, I hate to break it to you. I really do. But this same thing happened to me when I was in the public housing section of our city.

But it was involving... I know, bare with me... WHITE PEOPLE!

They were cussing, dealing drugs in a parked car, and even using that very same word! I know, I know. We'll get through it together.

Hey kid life is not a rap song, it is not a video game. Drop the gun, pull up your pants and pick up a book.

Stupid and Sad.
I agree, the parents should be put in jail.

The thing is HOW MANY white people are doing that versus blacks? And more importantly how many young white kids and teens are doing that?

Everyone knows there are bad people among all races/ethnicities, but people like you whether purposefully or not CONTINUALLY leave out the fact that many more blacks are behaving badly than whites or any other ethnic group for that matter. Thanks to the proliferation of cameras, there are literally hundreds if not thousands of videos showing how black young adults, teens and even little kids are behaving these days. I challenge you or anyone else to find even a fraction of videos involving white kids that behave in the same manner.

And I don't know about you, but I haven't seen too many little white kids brandishing guns and other weapons and acting and speaking like a thug as I've seen so many little black kids doing. Seriously what will it take for people like you who constantly defend blacks to admit that many, MANY black people are HORRIBLE PARENTS and are often ruining their children's lives before they've even had a chance to live it.

That to me is the main reason why black communities everywhere are so violent and messed up, because so many black kids can't ever grow up to be a normal, healthy, intelligent person thanks to their parents doing a pi$$ poor job of raising them and all the ghetto thugs who are living in their neighborhoods who are constantly pulling these kids to the dark side. As I said many times before, this is a generational problem that could easily be fixed within a generation or two, but for some reason blacks are either too lazy and/or too incapable of taking the steps to fix their communities and hence many of them will always be eternally violent and ghetto.

Don't feel compelled to answer, but I am curious what type of job required you to do such a thing

I've said several times in various threads that black culture has taken a turn for the worse in recent decades, really since the feel good half baked liberal social programs of the 60's. That helped to make them dependent on government. Some of those same requirements gave men an excuse not to be stay at home dads (i.e. less money coming from the government if the dad lived at home). So when your role models are the street corner drug dealers, it sets the stage for bad outcomes. Listening to rap music doesn't help either, as it further immerses the kids into the thug lifestyle. Kids being raised with racial chips on their shoulders combined with an entitlement attitude is a recipe for disaster and perpetual cycle of crime and poverty.

We managed the property and had to live on premises. Did that for 3 years and it was an experience I will never do again. Both of my grown Sons were taught by their Mom that all people are created equal, and when I used to say something negative about blacks they would say "Dad, they are people just like us !" They were also in property management and after their tenure of living among them they no longer say that, and are almost as negative about blacks as I am.

The root problem in the black world is a complete lack of a family structure. That is where it all begins and ends. The parents evidently had horrible parents themselves, and, consequently, have no idea how to properly raise their own kids. Kids are brought into this world with only a mom and some guy who visits occasionally, if at all. The mom is on welfare, has no prospects of ever getting beyond that level, and the kids end up on the streets to fend for themselves, with little if any education. To them, moving up in the world is being able to buy a set of rims for their car or some gold teeth.

Are there really good black people out there ? Absolutely, but the ratio is so badly offset by the huge population who fit into the group I mentioned above. There are a lot more hood rats than college professors among blacks, and that is why we have the negative stereotypes we discuss so often on here.

Used to be kids having kids. Still is in some cases. But now you have thugs having thugs. These kids don't stand a chance. And the beat goes on...

If that kid and his friend keep posing with firearms with their fingers on the trigger there is going to be an AD and we will see some sob story about how guns cause accidents.

Soooo....have any of his legions of "concerned followers" or the newspaper quoted contacted authorities? I'm guessing not. Better to pass it around social media and fan the flames of impotent outrage than actually do anything about it.

"But he was such a good Boy who would never hurt nobody. He was getting his life straight and going to college next year".

From his momma after they find him dead in the street.
