    VIOLENCE AMONGST BLACK AMERICANS SEEMS TO BE AN ENTERPRISE. BLACK AMERICAN YOUTHS LEAD DEVIL-MAY-CARE LIVES STYLE AND MOSTLY DIE YOUNG. WHILE THEIR PEERS OF WHITE PARENTAGE ARE MORE CAUTIONS IN THEIR ATTITUDE TO LIFE.

    I WONDER THE LEVEL AND QUALITY OF PARENTAL CARE AND ROLE AMONGST BLACK COMMUNITIES IN AMERICA. AS A BLACK MAN IN NIGERIA I FEEL HORRIFIED THE WAY BLACK YOUTHS IN AMERICA DIE THROUGH VIOLENCE. THE BLACK COMMUNITY THERE SHOULD QUICKLY COME UP WITH A RE-EVALUATION OF THEIR VALUES.

      His death had nothing to do with his race. This death was brought on by reckless behavior, and reckless behavior knows no color. This was a preventable death brought on by the false notion of invincibility and that is a notion that is pervasive in his peer group.

        Musesofamom, YOUR POSITION, IS WITH RESPECT, TOO SIMPLISTIC. THE PREPONDERANCE OF DEATHS THROUGH “RECKLESS BEHAVIOUR” AS YOU PUT IT, IS ALARMINGLY HIGHER AMONGST BLACK YOUTHS IN AMERICA. AS BLACKS WE CANNOT HELP THE SITUATION BY EXPLAINING IT AWAY AS A GENERAL PHENOMENON THAT “KNOWS NO COLOUR”.

        FROM NIGERIA I READ AND FOLLOW YOUR NATIONAL STATICS: MORE BLACK YOUTHS ARE LIKELY TO DIE OF DRUG, VIOLENCE, ETC, BEFORE ATTAINING FORTY. MORE BLACK YOUTHS ARE LIKELY TO BE JAIL-BIRDS BEFORE ATTAINING FIFTY. WE WON’T BE HELPING THE SITUATION BY LIVING A LIE.

      No Okey my position is not simplistic it isn fact realistic. Driving while distracted is not a race issue. Too often young people believing in their invinciblity take dangerous chances that can often yield deadly consequences. That is what happened in this case.

        I UNDERSTAND THAT I TOUCHED AN AREA THAT IS TOO TOUCHY FOR BLACKS IN AMERICA. BUT I REPEAT, THE STATISTICS OF DEATH CAUSATIVE FACTORS AMONGST BLACKS IN AMERICA WHICH WE READ FROM AMERICAN SOURCES IS VERY DISTURBING. TAKE A LOOK AT THE STATISTICS, RATIO, PROPORTION, WE MUST COME TO THE UNCOMFORTABLE TRUTH THAT IT IS NOT JUST “GENERAL PHENOMENON THAT KNOWS NO RACIAL BOUNDS”.

    I wonder why this Okay person types in all caps. Hilarious. :)

    Reckless behavior like this knows no gender and does not discriminate based on income either. Just sad.
