He can show courage because his skin color places him beyond criticism.
When 3% of the population (young black males) is responsible for 55% of all crime, there is a problem.

The astonishing hypocrisy of the Delusional Lying Left continues to enable the basic dysfunction of black culture.
God bless Denzel for telling it like it is. Blacks need to face their issues and abandon this Lying Leftist “racist” enabling crap.
I work in publishing and received an email from his assistant one day saying, “Denzel wants to talk to you.” He was working on a foreword for a book. He called personally to ask that we use a different Bible translation (he wanted the KJV)than the one that was used to go along with his Foreword. I was impressed.
His message here is remarkable in the amount of inoffensive truth packed in.
Take responsibility. One of the things that saddens me the most about my people is fathers that don't take care of their sons and daughters. And you can't blame that on The Man or getting frisked. Take responsibility. Look in the mirror and say, "What can I do better?" There is opportunity; you can make it. ... Keep the body in tune – it's your temple. All things in moderation. Continue to search. That's the best part of life for me – continue to try to be the best man.
Unless and until the Black community grabs this message and takes it to heart their very real struggles will assuredly continue and even grow worse as in fact they have over the last 50 years. It has been 50 since the government subsidized the destruction of the Black family. They, and we, have been reaping the tragic consequences ever since, and things are getting even more violent.
God bless Denzel Washington!

An interesting aside:
If you search GOOGLE for “famous black actors”, you get pictures returned of famous black actors EXCEPT for Denzel Washington.
If the father is not in the home the boy will find a father in the streets.
I saw it in my generation and every generation before me, and every one since.
If the streets raise you, then the judge becomes your mother and prison becomes your home. - - Denzel Washington
Denzel Washington - PLEASE GO TALK TO NFL OWNERS... TELL THEM THE TRUTH...ASK THEM TO HELP THE BLACK COMMUNITY IN A WAY THAT REALLY WILL HELP... SUPPORT THE TWO-PARENT BLACK FAMILY....
Denzel has always been a fav. Good head on his shoulders.
He’s always been stand up. And he donates to building homes for veterans.
I always admired his work on-screen. Now I admire him all the more for his courage. I’m sure the libtards in Hollyweird and elsewhere will attempt to skewer him for speaking the naked truth. The libtard way is to excuse people from any responsibility for misbehavior and to then come up with justifications and excuses by the dozen for it. Then, they attempt to apply some technological solution to prevent that problem from happening again instead of changing the base human behavior causing it.
Dang, I’m gonna start watching some of Denzel’s movies!
More prominent blacks must start saying this if the situation is EVER going to change as nothing a whitey says will EVER be listened to by young black males.
Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, the Dems will NEVER fall into line because a downtrodden black person IS their power base and all of us with a brain know this!
The Plantation masters at the DNC will go after him in the same way they went after Bill Cosby.
Denzel Washington, epitomizes ‘class act’.
The sistahs are going to have a hard time with this one. After swooning over him for decades, they can’t turn on him now, can they?
Nice to hear this. His colleagues will not be happy.
