Its difficult for me to understand why black folk tolerate this level of stupidity from their proported leaders.

Time after time we see self-serving black politicians ignoring the welfare of their constituancy in order to follow the party line. In this case,in dimmy lingo 'immagrant is good" and so they must ignore the facts right in front of them.

Its absolute insanity.

From a NJ Star Ledger blog: "Newark Mayor Corey Booker has gone on the offensive. That's a good thing, because his initial response to the weekend murder spree in New Jersey's largest city was downright abominable.

When asked by a television reporter about the fact that upon taking office he asked to be judged on crime in the city, one of America's most promising urban mayors said that he couldn't turn this [the crime situation] around overnight, "there were years of mismanagement of the police force by the previous administration."

Short of saying that "those kids had it coming," there is hardly a worse response Mayor Booker could have had.
