...every time they succeed in encouraging a young black to "stick it to the man." Millions of black adults have found such self-indulgence more important than facing the fact that they are pushing ever more young black men down the path to prison. Perhaps black adults feel that if they push hard enough, no blacks will be incarcerated, no matter what crimes they commit.

I don't buy this, not even slightly. The author is making a rather serious accusation, indicting millions of black parents of criminal misconduct without raising a single piece of damning evidence for the assertion - save the fact of a high black crime rate itself, with no explanation of a chain of causation or criminal mens rei.

You pinged M.H. King, rdb3, et al., as if you expected them to come and beat up on the writer. If you'd paid attention, you'd know that M.H. King had already pinged his entire black conservative list. And if you're going to be a pretentious blowhard ("mens rei") at least get it right. It's "mens rea," genius. But then, if you had a lick of sense, you wouldn't throw around such terms in the first place.

This, boys and girls, is bullshit. Who does this guy write for? The Arm, Sword, Word of Lord deckapes?

I guess it was too much trouble for you to check the top of the post, Lazybones, to see who publishes the writer. You were too busy with your "lawyer's" pig Latin.

Life must be nice in the suburbs. But here in NYC, I've personally experienced many incidents in which black children as young as eight years of age assaulted or harassed me, with the full encouragement of black adults.

Enjoy your ignorance, self-righteousness, and pretentions, because they're all you've got.

Actually, what I have is peace, reason, and a respect for the truth.
And the glee of having hit a nerve so well.
I enjoy them all thoroughly, and have done so when living in New York City, New Orleans, Philadelphia, Chicago, and Atlanta, as well as the sticks where I currently reside.
Suburbs are for pansies. You should consider moving there.
I pinged the others in the hopes of engaging in a rational analysis of the author's comments and -perhaps- the flaws in character which led you to post them here.
Your answer does not touch on the former, but provides ample evidence of the latter.
I believe your hood is too small for your fat head.
