    My father criticizes blacks all the time. He and my mother have done very well

    Sent three kids to UT

    They wont say **** publicly. Too much heat. So no one learns anything

    You black guys who think youre far removed, Missouri city turned from a black suburb to a ghetto overnight

    So, tell me how Trump is planning to address these other issues?

    Oh wait, he doesn't care either.

    ???

    Having birth out of wedlock is a bigger issue then police brutality? One isn't a problem at all, and one is a big problem.

    He'll save the black community by signing a healthcare bill that will slash their Medicare funds.

    Less coverage means they have to worry more about healthcare. That's a good thing right?

    As a 40-something married black man with one daughter in college and hopefully the other soon to be; a mortgage, two car notes and a decent level of security, let me be one (if not the first) to say.....You are clueless. Go f.u.c.k yourself.
    And if that's ban worthy then so be it. It's been a good 13 years.

    I dont care about there being a permanent working class. People are well taken care of in this country. Its really not a big deal, no one is gonna starve.

    But if you are gonna keep harping on it then you have to be honest about all issues.

    Broken homes being number one People take offense. First response, i dont come from a broken home. Its like well we are obviously not talking about you.

    Thus topic always go down that road. Its a waste a time

    I could on and on and on.

    And really its not a big deal. And really thats the main point

    One thing black people have to reconcile ourselves with is we are never gonna be on a whole as wealthy as whites. Cause really that the biggest source of the anger.

    You should consider doing some research if you are truly interested in knowing more about black people's plight in this country, and apparently in your opinion their apathy for. I am sure are concerned. Perhaps even read a book or two.

    Otherwise this thread should be deleted. This is an area for debate and discussion.

    This is pathetic though. Perhaps also learn to phrase things in a intelligent and more thoughtful manner.

    Police brutality happens so infrequently as to be statistically insignificant, whereas being born to a single parent bears a strong correlation to a dark future. You are correct that one isn't really a problem at all and the other is a big problem, but I'm not sure you know which is which.

    When in the hell did out of wedlock become "single parent"?

    I was born out of wedlock, my child was born out of wedlock, most of my family was born out of wedlock, no missing fathers, nearly all relationships have lasted (much higher then the avg % of successful marriages). A lot of people also have kids out of wedlock while still getting married later on.

    Marriage is a cultural/religious thing that has little to do with relationships and parenting.

    This thread is like conservative virtue signaling.

    If you really care let's talk about your actions rather than how much you care.

    You"re correct that single parent homes are not that abnormal or as much of an obstacle as they once were but its still a major problem for poor blacks.
