I have tears in my eyes right now. I don't have words for how I feel. These two young men and their parents should be so proud!!! These two are a great example of how stereotypes can not be trusted. Absolutely wonderful.

I've seen Black Men on the news here several times risking their lives to save someone.. Just yesterday two tried to save two kids from a house fire but couldn't because of the bars on the windows, but they tried and their hands were burned...You could see the pain in their eyes because they could not save those two kids.
I'm not surprised at all by their response to the would be kidnapper. However, in real life they would have been on T.V. that night for attacking an innocent victim. I am mixed race. I've live in urban areas and prodominatly white affluent areas. I know there are a lot of problems in the urban areas, but there is also a lot of good in those areas. There could be 20 good acts in a day and 5 idiots making bad choices. Those 5 idiots are going to make the news everytime. I called the newspaper and T.V. stations before for things I thought was new worthy. A group of black guys saved this little girl that was stuck in one of the big drainage things. The reporter had the nerve to ask what color was the victim! Needless to say, they never showed up.
In the white areas I saw fights among preppie white boys. I saw things getting vandalized. However, mommy and daddy was always there to fix it. No news cameras no coverage. You can find drugs in the affluent areas. Unless it's something big you can't hide, you don't hear about any of it. So 20 stupid acts and one good deed. They'll milk the h#ll out of that one good deed for a week.
Like I always say run across the street from the big black guy to get help from Ted Bundy!
What a stereotype neutralizer..It took the two guys that would probably scare people to put their lives in jeopardy and try and save a little girl. This isn't uncommon just unknown by many in this country who beleive that rap videos are reality.
