  1. He said the media will not cover a story that does not exist so he made one up. Doesn't take Sam to explain. These " news commentators" did not notice the shooting until today? Wow. MR is a joke. So conceited that they feel a need to explain the obvious. Failed Hollywood actors pretending to be a news organization.

  2. Racism is a mental illness. There is nothing logical or scientific that supports it. We need a DSM code for people who suffer from it; and a special recovery program to enable folks to release its toxic effects, both within themselves and on society.

  3. We need a revamp on our educational system from elementary school to college. Black-American history IS American history. The two are inextricably linked in terms of the creation of this country.
    There is no way a logical person could critically read and understand all of the intricacies of racist laws and developments in our history, and still hold the opinion that it has no current environmental, psychological and economic impact on outcomes for Black Americans in particular, and other non-white disenfranchised parties. Unless, of course, one is cognitively or psychologically ill.

  4. Americans who are comfortable accepting the disparities in health, wealth and education, which you can visibly see from neighborhood to neighborhood, will bear the burden of feeling increasingly unsafe in the world they are creating. You cannot thrive and move forward into a positive future as a country, when you don’t even consider everybody in your world an essential and contributing citizen. There is no amount of denial that will enable folks to carry that ideology on indefinitely. And, why would you want to create that for your children and their children’s children anyway?
