Quote:There sure are a lot of stereotypes being thrown around by a person who has probably been stereotyped his entire life. I guess that's just fine for some people though I imagine said poster would take umbrage should that be turned on him. 

 

"First they came for...."

 

I'm not throwing out stereotypes at all, I'm throwing out facts.  Until we all can come to a point where we can talk candidly about the problems in today's society the problems will never be fixed.  Throwing money and resources at the problem doesn't work, unless those resources happen to be from the very community in question.

 

Let me throw this out there without knowing all of the facts.  Why is it that the nightclub shooting in Ft. Meyers has pretty much disappeared from the media?  Is it because the perp(s) in this case were not Islamic?  Nope.  It's because it was another case of black-on-black crime.

 

From what I understand from the limited information out there, the shooting took place because of something to do with a rap performance or non-performance.

 

Now let's be honest and candid about it.  Is a rap performance common at a place frequented by whites and/or Hispanics?

 

Another thing that I saw was that there were people there that ranged in age from 12 - 27.  Would a responsible parent allow their 12 year old child to go to a club to interact with people in their 20's at 12:30 at night?

 

It's odd how we haven't seen pictures of the victims of the shooting.  It's odd that the story has disappeared from the media.  Do the black lives of the children killed matter?
