The authoress.
Eighteen year old men, especially black men, don't like being referred to as "boys" Sally. You'd know that if you had anything more than a superficial relationship with a black person.

I don't feel awful about myself per se, but I do I feel sorry for myself that I have to share the continent with ignorant things like the writer of this article.

I don't know what signal this event sends about America.
I do know that this sort of "opinion" sends a clear message as to why nobody watches CNN anymore, much less read "CNN Opinion".

The signal it sends is there are an awful lot of ignorant gullible people out there who are easily incited to riot by the race/poverty pimps who make a damned good living cashing in on the fear of mostly poor and uneducated people living on the government plantation where the pimps intend to keep them.

She does have a point about the militarization of our nation's police forces.
Other than that, she's full of crap.

Dear Sally Kohn,
Today was out to run one quick errand. I was removing myself from my vehicle and then noticed a king black gentleman was holding the door for me open to the building was going into to conduct my errand. I literally ran to the door so could Thank the Gentleman. One example ms. kohn of my neighborhood. We respect each other which is something, I guess, you would not understand. By the way ms. kohn, I was not in a Police vehicle and am not known extremely well in my community. I did not know the gentleman holding the door open for my entry. Had never seen the individual before. Odd you want people to believe you but have you have ever held a door open for a black family or a black individual? I have.
Sincerely,
nti

In New York in 2011, 25% of the NYPD's stop and frisks targeted young black men, who make up less than 2% of the city's overall population....The cops should, of course, have given equal time to stopping and searching elderly Jewish women using a walker.
I would think that if I were a young black man, I'd blame any harassment I got from the cops on other young black men giving them excellent reason to be suspicious of my (our) demographic.
Possibly I wouldn't, but to my mind that's a much more logical target for anger.
To go with some actual facts, over 70% of violent crime in NYC is by black people, who are stop and frisked 53% of the time. So they're actually being under-stopped.<

Normally I’d be polite toward a lady, but this thing is no lady. Therefore, stick it up your hole where the sun don’t shine, you beeotch.

What I see watching a little of CNN is race baiting at it’s worst.
