[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not sure why the focus is only on black and Latino boys. [/quote]

Right.  They're doing just fine.[/quote]

There are many doing fine, while many white kids are at risk. This is stupid racial discrimination. Focus on the behavior, not the race.

There are also a lot of AA and Latino girls at risk. . .[/quote]

Yeah, and obese people are at risk. So are smokers and drug users. Women in unsafe domestic situations are at risk. And so are school teachers (maybe they should be allowed to carry guns to work). Nighttime cab drivers are at risk of crime. So are mail carriers it seems.

The point is that he selected a TARGET GROUP. That's not to say that others aren't at risk, only that he cannot take on every single risk in America. That is the specific group he targeted.

Maybe one day we'll ALL do our jobs as inhabitants on planet Earth and look out for one another. Then we can focus on the at-risk group we'd like.

So instead of whining about all the groups he's neglecting, why don't you get up off the couch and take on a group yourself.[/quote]
