When will the leaders of the AA community speak up

[bodecea]

Typical liberal idiots. Make an issue out of the misguided use of AA for african-americans and dismiss the fact that two negro teens fatally shot an 87 year old WWII Navy veteran.

what does them being black have to do with anything? I wonder if the OP would be asking the white community to do the same thing if the roles were reversed?

You have 12 percent of the population (blacks) accounting for over 50 percent of violent crime, when and if the trend ever reverses and you have whites committing a proportionate amount of violent crime, then we'll address the white community.

You like history...at one time, whites were committing a proportionate amount of violent crimes...including lynchings. Was the white community addressed at that time?

No, because the blacks in the great city I love commit 99% of the murders in this city. So the white leaders don't have to speak out. But of course it would be racist to call some one a white leader

When Philadelphia's "Call to Action: 10,000 Men" movement debuted in the fall of 2007, it seemed almost predestined. That year was particularly deadly for the city, with the murder rate topping more than one per day. The enlistment of civilian men to patrol their own neighborhoods, intervene in disputes and talk young men -- especially young black men -- down from a life of crime was borne of desperation. The national media certainly noticed, and other cities dealing with their own spikes in violence cribbed notes.

But "10,000 Men" petered out rather quickly. Just months later, volunteers were grumbling that lack of organization, training and volunteers, and poor coordination with Philly police, were grounding the movement. By February 2008, the City Paper was jeering, "Can You Find the 10,000 Men?" Calls to its HQ are intermittently met by a busy signal or disconnection message. The last login to "10,000 Men"'s MySpace page was Dec. 15, 2007.

Earlier this week, an advocacy group called the Violence Policy Center announced that Pennsylvania led the nation in black homicide rates. The study, based on 2006 data from the FBI, found that 490 of the 7,425 black homicide victims nationally were killed in Pennsylvania. The state's rate of 36.86 per 100,000 was more than one and a half times the national average.

Once the camera's left and the news stories passed, so did the 10,000 men

The implication is that it's only "negroes" who do such dastardly deeds. Teen violence is happening all over the country, including right here in pristine 97% white Vermont.

The kids in the story are rotten. Period. The color of their skin is irrelevant.

(Took me a while to figure out what Alcoholics Anonymous had to do with the story, though.)

I think it really refers to American Airlines, not Alcoholics Anonymous.
