@Humbletexan1: We are ALL suffering the consequences of slavery, imo.

@bbk: ...only if you allow it.

Was Michael Brown a slave? If not, why is slavery even an issue here? Let it go...........

@Humbletexan1: I was not talking about Michael Brown specifically but about our culture where we have already let too much go, imo - especially in our justice system.

What have we let go and please be specific?

@MooMaw:
I really do wish I could control some of what people say I really do ! One of my very best friends lives in Washington state. She & hubby flew to Houston & the next day we drove to La to see & spend the week end with 6 dear friends we grew up with . We learned that they were born there will die there & have no change of heart are of thought from when they were young .We both thank God our thoughts about our black Americans are not like our friends & I will not repeat what they said . Are there bad blacks of course there are just like there are bad whites All races have their share of bad eggs we all know that .What I see on A.com is most of the time most of the people are very willing to believe anything bad told to them about a black person & will not take a wait & see approach or get all the facts 1st .Why didn't the policeman turn in his gun for the investigation ? After all ( HE ) said MB's fingers were on the gun so why not prove it that they were ? Last night I heard the autopsie was ( NOT LEGAL ) because the guy who performed it was not a doctor he was the assistant to the doctor that should have performed it . And to top it all off they said Michael B was already embalmed when it was done & by the way the batteries in the camera were dead so there were no pictures taken . Now this doctor was hired by MB's parents , do you really believe that doctor didn't know ( HE ) HAD TO DO THIS AUTOPSIE & NOT HIS ASSISTANT ?

Bbk........are you kidding us right now?

MB committed suicide when he reached into the cop car - his demise had nothing to do with racism.Those that say it did - are racist. IMHO.Reality is. Reading the post of several here - it seems like some have a problem.What are those with the problem doing to resolve their problem?Being dependent on others is not the answer. Whining and blaming others it isn't the answer either.Maybe a better approach would be
1) Decide what you want
2) Determine what you have to do to get what you want
3) Do what is required to get what you wantFYI - wishing does not workFrom Fred: I cannot do this for them, and it isn’t my problem.

@Humbletexan1: No I am not , what are you questioning ? I saw this on CNN last night .

@bbk: Lol..... That's tge problem right there....Same network that was blaming the cops during the riots and looting......
