"In black boys' lives, what we know from developmental psychology is there are more situations that demand that they be adults than there are in the average white boys' lives," he said

The demand may be there ...

I say No.

I had no idea convenience stores had video cameras in the 1800s.

I could care less about what color Brown was. But if Libs want to play up some sort of “black brute” characature/stereotype for someone who did what Brown did to that Indian convienience store manager (caught on tape) they really need to examine whether THEY’RE decrying the stereotype, or promoting it.

NPR, where all the views of the government are above average and intelligent people’s aren’t.

Exactly. Gentle giant? Or 300 pound thug?

As for these mysterious views based on mindless racism, let us take a brief look at the FACTS:

Liberals see racism everywhere.

They always assume the worst of people.

They don’t want to be bothered by the facts because they already made their minds up.

The complete nonjournalists at npr are beyond redemption. They are so into their sick ideology that they deny and distort fact. What a bunch of losers.

“Wilson’s account of Brown reads a lot like 1800s stereotypes of the uncivilized, grunting brute black man. #Ferguson”

Stereotypes are based on REALITY.

I’m a 6’1”, 250 guy with a chl. When I went to the grocery store tonight in my middle class neighborhood, I wasn’t looking around for white guys, hispanicguy, or oriental guys that could possibly give me trouble. Why not? A little something called life experience has taught me that chances are, it is going to be a black guy who would be most likely to approach me with ill intentions. It has happened multiple times before, and the way that I handled each situation may not have been at all PC, but I went home each time with my health, my belongings, and without regrets. I refuse to be a victim, and will let a perceived threat know in no uncertain terms that trouble lies with me.

6’0”, 350lbs here. Don’t get much gruff from people unless they’re crazy, stoned or drunk and even then, not much. When I bounced, people would usually leave if I asked them to.
