Future inmates.
And, this on the heals of that massive brawl after a high school golf match....wait, what?
“Teenagers” and “juveniles” are at it again. There seems to be a common thread regarding the “teenagers” and “juveniles” involved in these dust ups that the media just can’t seem to put their collective fingers on. What could it be? What COULD it be?
Mr. Mercat and I plan to spend two nights in Memphis on our way to Florida in mid Feb. We’re RVing. Any no go areas? We’ll be back in our camper by dark every night so not going out bar hopping.
Mostly black area.
LOL!
My wife and I graduated from WHS in 1962, married, started a family. Whitehaven was an unincorporated area of Shelby Co. with a population of about 50K it was generally considerd upscale. We built a house there and moved back in 1965-66 in an area 4 blocks from an elementary school that was planned and being built to expand to grades 1-12. The area was annexed by Memphis and around 1970 the court ordered school busing started, we had three children in elementary school and they were assigned to three different schools with three different starting times and none of them at the school four blocks from our house. We did as the board of education requested and gave it a week and then visited the schools to see how it was going, we already had an idea from our children. At each school we walked the halls observed, observed their classrooms and pulled each child out of the school. Sold the house for less than it cost me and left Whitehaven with thousands of others. It’s now one of the areas of Memphis I avoid unless I have to be on the Interstate.
Getting ready for Uncle George.
I meant re-occuring :)
No doubt.
My main man!
“before police officers swarmed the auditorium”
What? Those police officers are not very good at doing their jobs of killing “black youths” if they swarmed an auditoriam full and no one was killed!
When I read “massive brawl” I knew that this would be obama/holder’s kids. Don’t even have to look.
“White-haven? Sounds racist and exclusionary.”
I used to go to Memphis on business and had the same idea, but here’s the wiki:
“The community takes its name from a Colonel Francis White, who was an early settler and major property owner. White was influential in getting a rail line to run through what was first called White’s Station, later White Haven and then Whitehaven. This Mississippi and Tennessee Railroad was chartered in 1853, and the first trains ran in 1856. The first “White Haven” post office was opened in 1871. The roads and train tracks connected the cotton farms of the Mississippi Delta to Memphis markets, establishing strong commercial links.”
Also, Graceland is in Whitehaven and it’s not a particularly good part of town.
He post to be wookin puh nub.
Unce.....Tice.......Fee Dimes a Maby.
Memphrica. Don't need to read any further.
Refs should institute a moratorium on RE-calling fouls.!!!!..............
“A big elephant in the room is that young black men are much more prone to violence than others. It is considered racist to talk about. But it does seem to be part of a pattern in which these brawls involve blacks much more than other ethnicities.”
According to Justice Department published statistics, blacks commit murder at the rate of more than seven times the rate of whites.
