To U Thant: Please lady (I'm guessing you are female). No matter what link I give you, you will try to slam it, so that's why I say google it yourself and maybe you can find your answers. Chicago residents have been the recipients of billions of dollars in aid, grant, and entitlements. What would help this area is strong intact families who place a high value on education and are willing to work together to improve their communities. Like what I saw when I was a kid. But maybe they DO need outreach programs for some people. Programs on how to be a warm, nurturing parents, who spent the time necessary to raise independent productive citizens for their community.

The U.S. Media And Racism Media have divided the working class and stereotyped young African-American males as gangsters or drug dealers. As a result of such treatment, the media have crushed youths' prospects for future employment and advancement. The media have focused on the negative aspects of the black community (e.g. engaging in drug use, criminal activity, welfare abuse) while maintaining the cycle of poverty that the elite wants. There are no universally accepted and recorded codes or rules, which apply to journalists in news selection and production. The media have devoted too much time and space to "enumerating the wounded" and too little time to describing the background problems of African-Americans. For What is not a crisis is not usually reported and what is not or cannot be made visual is often not televised. The news media respond quickly and with keen interest to the conflicts and controversies of racial stories. For the most part, they disregard the problems that seep beneath the surface until they erupt in the hot steam that is the "live" news story. The Riots The media have not studied important events in the African-American community today. Issues such as urbanization, education, poverty, and other elements have a significant bearing on positions of the black community. A good example of this is the media portrayal of the Los Angeles riot in 1992. What we witnessed in Los Angeles was the consequence of a lethal linkage of economic decline, cultural decay, and political lethargy in American life. Race was the visible catalyst, not the underlying cause, as media portrayed it to be. 5 The portrayal of this individual event encouraged the perception that the black community was solely responsible for the riots and disturbances. According to reports, of those arrested, only 36% were black and of those arrested, more than a third had full-time jobs and most had no political affiliation. 6 Some 60% of the rioters and looters were made up of Hispanics and whites. Yet the media did not report this underlying fact. The media portrayal of this event along with other race riots has again inflicted negative charges and scorn on black awareness. Race riots in Miami in 1980 were similar to the later Los Angeles riots. Here the media also refused to search for the underlying cause behind the protest choosing instead only to depict African-American males engaged in violence and destruction. The underlying factors behind these problems were never researched or explained in prior stories. |

Your guesses, are then as accurate as your deluding to Zimmerman's culpability here ---amongst other Peculiarities--- which I'll continue to speak truth to, of course. So, cheers! |

It is easy to find a scapegoat, such as 'The Media'. But remember this is the same media that initially told the world and GZ was a white man, that doctored up his 911 call to the police so that it looked like he was a racist, etc. There are no quick and easy answers to some of the problems in our urban communities. There are plenty of people/programs/institutions you can blame. But it has to start with the people themselves who are willing to do what is necessary to stop the genocide. Cheers.

Crime has always been primarily intra-racial. A black criminal will most likely do harm to another black person. A white criminal will most likely do harm to another white person. Most crime occurs between people who know each other. |

No thanks lol! No kool-aid for me. I've lost a lot of respect for CNN and MSNBC this past year. It's no wonder their ratings are low. |
