Do you think it helps or hurts racism in this country when a powerful black man gets up and talks about how bad he had it too?

Poverty does not discriminate. It has nothing to do with culture.

Now that we recognize that, how do we get from where we're at to the desired result?

Diversity in law enforcement is a good start. It doesn't help that Ferguson 's police force was something like 95% white.

So now you want to select people for jobs based on their race?

It's turning in on itself.

It doesn't hurt to have black cops policing black neighborhoods. Does it? I thought you wanted segregation?

So choosing people based on race is cool with you.

Aren't you so progressive!

More often than not their economic situation is a direct result of their own culture.


When your culture embraces criminal and/or hooligan activity and eschews education and making positive contributions to society it has a direct effect on your economic situation.

Yes Fitbud, There are Black Policemen in St.Louis, Louisville, Chicago, Memphis, New York. Really all over the country. The problem is the diversity thing. Whether by choice or action committee Black officers seem to be assigned to the more affluent neighborhoods in most cities. Especially Newly hired Black officers. Most White recruits wind up patrolling the majority Black or Hispanic neighborhoods. Now once They have more seniority then They move on. There should be a requirement that regardless of race that the area of highest need should be in the neighborhoods that have the newer officers patrol in. They are both Younger and more physical in statute and can relate better with younger folks. They probably have a better understanding of the needs and lifestyle they younger folks have. Some higher ups fear that Young Black officers could face retaliation by arresting guys they might live near. I don't know the real answer but We are not currently going in the right direction .

We used to ride the public bus downtown. The Guards used to chase us off the bridge when we would spit on the boats.

So you are admitting that your open hatred of law enforcement is the result of the illogical culture you were raised in?
