Mr. Speaker, I am tired of burying young black boys.

Then raise them better.

I have Googled reports which show that crime is still higher and school drop out rates higher in black families of higher socioeconomic status than in whites families of lower SES. Look up statistics on Prince George’s County which has a high number of affluent black families. Even amongst these families the drop out rates and crime rates are higher. They are higher than amongst poor whites in West Virginia. People are only just beginning to open their eyes, if they don’t snap them shut tight when the truth starts making them uncomfortable.

That would help. But it’s interesting that even black males raised in higher socioeconomic levels have higher rates of school drop out and crime than comparable white males.
