[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To answer op, look at crime rates. Look at the news. Most suspects are African Amercians and repeat offenders. I was shopping today and a group of African American teens came in and caused a raucous and then the alarm sensors starting going off as they fled the store. They obviously stole items. The nice African American employee helping me just looked at me and we had a moment of both being disgusted by the teens' behavior and it was clear the gentleman helping me felt discouraged. He is doing all he can and punks like this give him a bad name. Also, a white woman was murdered today by two African Americans and not a word of coverage in the news. What about the daily killings and murders committed by African Americans in DC and across the country? What about the drive by shooting in Baltimore yesterday that murdered an African American and then when they had a vigil for him today, someone went by and shot 4 people at the vigil. Why is this not all over the news? I say this as someone with African American relatives and also as someone with police enforcement as relatives. We won't heal as a nation until we root out the bad guys. It shouldn't be a black vs. white issue. It should be bad vs. good. The store clerk and I today were on the same side clearly in our feelings despite the color of our skin. We need more of that as a nation. [/quote]

It will always be a black and white issue. History will always dictate that. [/quote]
