Morgan then invited Elder onto his show, where the two debated Jeantel and the importance of the Zimmerman trial to black America.
I was, because you werent doing her any favors by condescendingly trying to convince her that shes a victim, Elder said. This is a young lady who didnt apply herself, a 19-year-old who is still in high school. Instead of saying young lady, take this as an opportunity to take stock of your life, youre treating her like she was a victim. And thats how youre doing this whole thing about race and racism. Seven thousand murders last year, Piers, of black people. Almost all of those were committed by black people.
Since Trayvon Martin had his unfortunate death, there have been 480 blacks killed in Chicago alone. Seventy-five percent of those crimes have been unsolved, he continued. Where are the cameras? Where are the shows? Its outrageous to act as if black America should fear some non-black guy stalking some black kid at night. The likelihood of a black person being killed by a non-black person is extremely remote, which is why this is became a big national issue in the first place, Piers.
Morgan and Elder had several exchanges about the validity of the issue, with Morgan insisting that he had given just attention to violence elsewhere, including Chicago.
MORGAN: Right. Its perfectly possible, as we have shown on this show many times, to be just as exercised by what is happening in Chicago which is an absolute national disgrace to America, frankly in terms of the outlandish gun ELDER: But youre not but youre not, Piers. MORGAN: But I am, actually. ELDER: There are 7,000 murders last year.

A liberal's mind - the least permeable solid object known to man.
Well, he’s not “really” black, of course.....
It’s quite possible someone in her long past family was a slave seller or slave worker so she is owed full support for life by we taxpayers that had nothing to do with slavery. This is Holder’s America now. Keep working hard so these victims can enjoy their free ride through life.
LARRY ELDER; “ THE SAGE OF SOUTH CENTRAL “. Git’em Larry.
Piers Morgan is nothing but a transplanted English twit who knows absolutely nothing about this particular problem in the United States.
Larry Elder has been there and done that; up from nothing, other than having damn good parents and now a national name and brand of his own.
I always love it when brain dead liberals argue with conservative blacks and the liberals always think they have a clue.
Piers Morgan will never get. Puposefully obtuse.
Larry Elder was actually wrong about one thing. Piers Morgan does talk about the overall crime rate, and his solution is more gun control laws. I loved how he gave Piers his own medicine by constantly talking over him.
“spared”. that’s like saying the US ARMY spared with the iraqi army in gulf war 1
Sparred.
‘Spared’ is a whole other word.
“Twitter Explodes With Racial Epithets Towards Larry Elder: “
The visiting Englishman apPiers to be very stupid.
bump
Unlike Elder....too many Blacks apologize and rationalize Rachel Jeantel
Its like whites trying to justify Honey Boo Boo
And many have been raised on resentment and have no desire to assimilate.
There is a head-on collision coming down the road.
Another truth is that there was little racism in the country before Obama...his election proved it. It's gotten worse. Until blacks get real with the state of affairs in the US and stop playing victim, there will be trouble that changes the nature of life in this country. I resent that.
BullCRAP! There was a TON of black-against-white racism. Obuttwipe has merely given it license to expose and flaunt itself with immunity!
The only correction I have for Elders: That is not a lady.
