”- of course black teenagers are shot by police in disproportionate numbers, that’s because they commit most of the crime, which is because black people mostly live in drug infested ghettos created by democrats who want to keep them on ‘democrat/liberal plantations’”

I grew up with five black brothers, and none of them spent time in prison for committing any crime. I’m in my 60s, and what these tools don’t know is that I have never lived in a ghetto. Being black does not equal growing up in and/or living in a ghetto. It seems to me that these persons are somehow watching too many old episodes of “Good Times.” My family was nothing like that portrayed by the actors in that sitcom. I actually hated “Good Times” because it was heavy on black stereotypes. I didn’t know a single black family while I was growing up, including my own, in which siblings stood around and launched comedic potshots at each other. My parents would have blistered our butts for doing something like that. Except for the time between my birth and the age of five, my parents built and owned both of our suburban homes. Both homes are still in the family.
