"Encouraging"
that is, as long as those same folks recognize...the

areas of poverty where drugs and gangs seem to be the only option
for so many young black people, because they've
lost hope
that they'll ever be...treated and given the same opportunities as whites.
So if your are truly aghast at this violence, hopefully you are as
equally outraged and speaking up
, about the disparities in income, opportunities and treatment...by our society as a whole.
Why do I have a strong hunch though...that isn't gong to happen?
If you were in this crowd, but fail to recognize the truth that Jane Elliott is saying (and
proved -
Brown Eyes-Blue Eyes
(Click Here)
) and wouldn't have stood up either...
then it's time to look inward
.
There you go again, showing empathy. Stop that it might be contagious.
