[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 2740874, member: 5412"] Cops killing citizens of every ethnic group has been going on since cops were formed. That is not the issue at all. There has been relatively few issues with this considering the number of arrests overall. Its a minor issue in the overall reason the black community is what it is. Before anybody says it, I'm sure it was an issue for the ones that were shot and were innocent, so that is already out there. IMHO the blame lies on the community itself caused by their leadership. The race baiters (which have been around way before this century, or the last) have perpetuated the po' black man, beaten down by the man mentality. Kids only know what they are taught. Eventually that becomes a part of their thinking over generations and they think no matter what they do, it will never be anything different. The ones that have broken that cycle have gone on to become productive citizens. Watching the news tonight in Baltimore, black citizens that have broken that mold were in the crowd urging the protestors to go home. They were state Senators and State Congress people. Others have broken out of the mold by building businesses that get burnt down by their own people. How disturbing is that? Those legislators have learned by breaking out that they might be able to make a difference the right way. By the vote. [/QUOTE]
