I understand your concern for black children. However, such bad behavior/parenting is an American thing, NOT a black thang. That was the purpose for the video - we need to stop self-flagellating, stop dumping on ourselves as "it's JUST US" for stuff that EVERY race does. It' not 'just us.'

The author of this thread nor I has ever stated or implied that this behavior is "just us."

However, the behavior in these videos IS from us.

And, comparing or highlighting this same behavior or worse in other races does not lessen nor excuse it in our own.

The lack of responsible parenting in these children's lives which shaped these behaviors will also be evident as these children age. It will also contribute to their behaviors and progress in school; their behaviors in their home environments/society; employment; possible criminal records; etc...
