I have a twenty year old son. He is a student and a very hard worker. He does not mean anyone any harm what so ever. You cannot imagine the anxiety that I deal with when he is away. The violence is unbearable and causes PTSD on families. Most of these murders are expected based on lifestyle. There are other families that get caught up in this insanity and it is very concerning. The murder of the suburban black teen at the pumpkin patch remains unsolved. This was a child from a two parent middle class suburban home. If this can happen to him it can be any one of us.
Bingo.

Once again Family Guy, has the perfect clip for this situation. But this does kind of remind me over the media reaction to Gabby Petitto, AKA "The case of the missing pretty white girl".

Nobody said anyone is any better than another. As a matter of fact, all lives matter has been touted many times.

Considering you continually say there’s nothing to be worried about and folks make more out of crime than needs to be, especially in and around the city, and claim folks are being scared for no reason, there shouldn’t be anything to worry about, unless you don’t believe what you’re saying

I also considered that you are a idiot. You bring nothing to the conversation. Just shut up please......for once.

The truth is often unpopular, and I bring plenty, as it’s obvious that crime and violence is indeed a huge problem, and much needs to be done about it. Too many criminals/violent criminals on the streets.

This is the thread to show us then...cuz if there was, on a proportionate level then the problem can be diagnosed ELSEWHERE. but if it is going to remain lopsided then the question of 'why this and why not that' has to be answered FIRST.


BIIIIIG differences.

people here are very PC. no one here attacks YOUR viewpoint (even if it IS w/ tact), and will use language in their posts that smooths things over. it is because you are black.

if you do NOT get that, and are treated as an actual EQUAL, you seem to panic.

GG's concern for a white kid who got shot seems to have triggered you. you ignore, of course, the multitudinous posts he's had about this type of urban crime, where in none of those his concern was for the human life, and not the person of a categorized race or ethnicity.

erieguy, you quoted me, and that quote SHOULD have had the bold removed:
