Tell all children to settle disputes with words, not fists.
If Treyvon had said when ask, “what are you doing here”? was reply, “I live here”. he would be alive today. Instead he used his fists and was killed in self defense. Who’s at fault?

They are no leaders...just a bunch of idiots posing.

Gosh, wouldn’t that risk their 501(c)3 status?

Manning absolutely nails it here: you haven’t got any Jesus in you! To have Jesus one must have come to the stark awareness of one’s own guilt before God Almighty. In light of that awareness racism disintegrates as the guilty party is ME!

Having Jesus enables one to first blame THEMSELVES and reject self pity. Race hustlers are doing the Devil’s work in encouraging black men and women to place blame on someone else. Some of them even masquerade as “reverends”.

The first thing the pastor can do is deal with this:

Comment from fenria14 2:56 PM CST

You know what, blacks, I’m going to be completely honest with you. As a white woman, I’m scared of you. Blacks have tried to carjack me four separate times, tried to rob me, have beaten me up, been unbelievably mean, racist, and cruel to me, been horrible to my friends, have attacked my friends physically, and have robbed my father right in front of me, and this is just the short list.

With my personal experiences and national crime statistics put together, yeah, you’re darn right I’m looking to live as far away from you guys as possible, as most whites are these days, but are too afraid to come out and say it. Yeah, I don’t want my white son to grow up around you guys. No, I don’t find your rap music and gangster culture to be enjoyable or enlightening. I find it to be absolutely disgusting and horrible. The very worst that society has to offer. In fact, a society destroyer.

I find you people to be violent, dangerous, always looking for a fight, sullen, angry, never courteous, quick to anger, and totally unable to accept even the mildest constructive criticism. The problem is yours, not mine. No one is looking to move away from me.

First of all, stop lying about what trayvon was carrying. It wasn’t tea. It was Watermelon Fruit Juice Cocktail.

“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it."

Unfortunately; even well-educated Freepers fall under this spell...

“What can we do as parents, what can we do as African Americans?”

This from an African American parent whose first call, the next morning, in an attempt to locate his missing son was to juvenile hall?

That alone tells you everything you need to know about this "parent" and especially his son.

My Hoodie doesn't mean that I am criminal

But when it's worn by a jewel thief casing a townhouse for another burglary it does.
