Black Lives Matter

It is indeed about the CDC numbers that placed young black men leading cause of deaths as other young black men and not as in all other groups accidents being the number one reason for deaths in that age group and next would be diseases and only then homicide.

How do you think you are aiding young black men by trying to hide that fact and or downplaying that fact?

You proved my point. Thanks.

An what point is that perhaps that you care far more for being PC then the lives of young black men?

I'm not PC: I happen to love all peoples, and have friends all around the world.
Some of the countries includes Malaysia, Canada, Mexico, Singapore, Russia, Africa, Germany, UK, and Cuba. I have been fortunate to have traveled to 77 countries.

That nice but you seem willing to place the PC view of young black men ahead of dealing with the challenges and risks they are facing when growing up.

Your subjective perception about me is off by about 100%.

I do not think so as you had been more then willing to overlook and cover up the mayor problems facing young black men in this society growing up if it is not connected to racist whites or racist police officers.

Anyone else see the coverup I've made about blacks? News to me, since I grew up and worked with blacks while growing up in Sacramento.

Since when is someone offering an opposing viewpoint an attempt to derail a thread? I don't think you started this thread to begin with, unless you are operating with multiple identities, but what is you preference, that this thread contain nothing but comments that accuse the police of racism and replies that read, "Brilliant!" and "Ain't that the truth?!"?

The only thing keeping this thread going is your dispute with Bill.

You men like gun happy racist cops?

So what are you and CI doing here, then? Go somewhere else.

Or other young black men who are killing their fellow black men in far greater numbers then cops or white racists.

Not to mention children who get into the line of fired as a young black boy who died in his own front yard a few weeks ago in Miami during a drive by shooting.

My how free you feel in ordering others around....Amazing

bobsal only made a suggestion. We can also tell him to "go somewhere else."

Ordered is a bit strong, don't you think? He said he felt this was only about you and me and I asked why he and another member still posted in response to your dismal ****. I suggested if he didn't like it all he had to do was go on another thread. Why don't you check into your misperceptions and inability to recognize situations for what they are? I'm sure your therapist might be able to prescribe you something new.

Thank you, that was my intention!

You are going to hurt my feelings.

But then I can not understand that placing being racially correct is more important to you then the need to understand the situations and conditions that are resulting in destroying our young black men in very large numbers so those conditions can be address.

It is now very PC to blame the cops and white racists in generate for what is happening but not that the main problems is black gangs who do most of the killings in the black communities not cops or racists.

The problems in the black communities will only be solved when we find means to reduce the large percent of children beginning born out of wedlock so those children do not turn to gangs to find needed male companionships.

Ending the so call war on drugs would also be a step in the right direction in my opinion.

Try to remember this, if that's at all possible: 84% of violent crimes are committed by whites. Your worries are misplaced.
Look at Table 5 from this link: http://www.bjs.gov/content/pub/pdf/to-wcc.pdf

The death ratio by homicide given by the CDC of young black men is the leading cause of deaths unlike any other group.

So all those thousands a year of young black men who do not get to grow up due to being killed at a rate far greater then any other group does not matter to you?

In fact I have never read a new story of a white child being killed in a drive by shooting but it is far too common in the black communities as just happen to a young boy a week or so ago in Miami.

So you are going to pretend that other then racist cops killing blacks for no good reason the black communities have no problems?

That unlike whites parents black parents need to fear their young children being killed by stay bullets hitting them.

By the way you can not read a table as the figure is 50 white to 47 blacks for violence crimes given by table 5.
