I agree, but it gives them something else to focus on besides what happens in their own community. They have their fair share of bottom feeders, but much of it is well hidden particularly in small to mid-size cities and rural areas. Crytal meth is taking over and the fallout has the potential to change the image (albeit false) they like portraying.
Spoken like a true scholar who walks HIS talk, jxsilicon. You said it all my friend. I get bored and sick of all the back-and-forth blame game bullshit that many blacks are guilty of whenever addressing a social issue. A lot of black people in this nation: are too stupid to stop blaming themselves and each other for everything that's wrong with their communities and the rest of the world, without realizing that all the other ethnic groups are doing the same thing, and yet, black people continue to feed into it like clockwork are too defeatist and insecure to actually do anything to better themselves and their lives in order to rise and overcome anything and, are too busy worrying about what all the other ethnic groups will think about this and that such as if it's a black person in the news and NOT a white person that committed 'this crime and that crime', along with everything else under the sun and, lastly, keep falling for the song and dance of these so-called leaders, who don't even interact with these supposedly lost black male youth, but instead, preach a bunch of fairy-tales about 'we need to change this and that' but can ONLY preach and then cash their checks and then go home and giggle to themselves about it all afterwards (Cosby is no better anymore) Yup, you, flaminghetero, ChosenOne, and malachi know the score. Anyone else who denies all of this just playing dumb.
