To: Alberta's Child
When my younger brother was 6 a bully held his thumb to a lit match and gave it a painful nasty burn. The next day my older brother, who was 16, quietly and privately cornered the little thug. He threatened him with near death if he ever so much as approach me or my brother. This kid never came near to either my brother or me again the entire time we lived there.

Another time when my oldest brother was about 13 he was selling flowers at the elevated train station. ( My uncle owned green houses.) Two gay men made advances to my brother. When my uncle learned about it, he and another uncle had a talk with these guys. Again...The same story. These guys never approached my brother again.

When my oldest brother was married with a family, drug dealers set up shop on a neighborhood corner. The police did nothing. So...My brother and a neighbor had a quiet and friendly talk with the low level dealers. They pointed out the various roofs where a sniper could easily hide himself. They reminded the dealers that police wouldn't be very interested in investigating the death or injury of a dealer, and maybe they would be better off finding another neighborhood. The next day they were permanently gone.

I often wonder about these bullying stories. When are the men with balls in the family?

>>Unbelievable comments.

I bet there’s a lot of clean up on that tomorrow. Can’t have the truth of how many people really feel get out.

I was born in '44 and I do not recall any instances of the vilification of comic books. Who did it?

I did, in post 80.

“The comments certainly are ugly.

Some are very ugly.”

Some of the comments are also very, very STUPID.

Some nitwit just blamed Ronald Reagan for the desperate state of the inner city-we should give ‘em food and money so they can have the things white people have. Oy vay...

Far and away the most ignorant comments were those equating race with intelligence and equating race with propensity to violence.

Oh the joys of forced busing and integration in the public schools.

On the former, we have The Bell Curve and little else, since it is completely politically incorrect to scientifically study any linkage. Thus it is not done. You’ll never get before a tenure committee doing those studies, especially if you get the “wrong” answer.

On the latter, whether it is genetic or culture, it matters little to this kid nor to those who are the victims of black crime. And the numbers are out there. The sad part is that most of the victims are black as well, so the fact that we as a society don’t deal effectively with many crimes by blacks hurts those in the black community badly.

Damn right I do. Im not politically correct and I will call a spade a spade. PC sucks, seeing life through your PC glasses is not living in the real world.

And by the way, exactly how am I “hot headed and crazy”?

In your persistant attack on BykrBayb's simple and logical statement that the perps had been shaped by their childhood experiences. Violent video games do train for violent lives.

He won’t because he can’t.

Strawmen are so much easier to knock down than tackling the real issue.

You claimed that violent video games were at least in part responsible for the assault in the news story that began this thread. I requested that you back this assertion up with detail in the form of the video games that the assaulters supposedly played. You, being unable to substantiate your post, began to obfuscate the point as a form of defense, just as you've continued to do up through your most recent reply.

You are making an unconnected and unreasonable demand and you know it.

Her *failure* (for lack of a better term) to meet the unrealistic demands you make, that NOBODY could meet, is no evidence of anything but your petty, immature, don't have anything better to do than harass someone on the internet, mind games.

Why are YOU making such an issue of one random comment that some one made on an internet forum?

What's your connection to this issue that's leaving you so hypersensitive to it all?

There was no mention of race that means it was a black on white crime.

BTW, Im going to be way, way, way, way, over generous with these numbers, Black folk comprise about 18% of the country yet are responsible for about 80% of the violent crime....what conclusion do you draw from that... If youre Jessie Jackson or Al Sharpton you say the numbers only reflect the poor innocent blacks that are arrested by racist white cops, which drive up the number...bullshit.

Hmm. That's what I've been wondering.

Yip, yip, yelp.

Anyone that doesn’t have their heads stuck up their pseudo-intellectual progressive ass knows EXACTLY what was up in this story. It’s an all too common story the mainstream media ignores.

Hey Holder!! Is this the sort of discussion on race you want to have?

I thought not, you chickenshit political pawn.

Ouch. Based on the comments on a CBS TV website, I understand the ping. The fuse is burning ...
