What he said sounds like something Bill Cosby might say.
I have heard Cosby tell the truth...even when you could see in his face that it hurt him to speak such a truth.

I have another truth to speak... the plight of African Americans can for the most part be laid at the foot of the democrat party.... The party of segregation and attempts to limit the freedom of blacks to vote.

They were afraid that the blacks in the south would vote for republicans.

I do marvel at how thoroughly the dems have hidden the truth from nearly all African Americans....

The republican party was founded to right the wrongs done to the blacks in this country, Lincoln was the first republican president, Martin Luther king was a republican...it was the republican party that firmly supported the civil rights legislation.... How many blacks know these facts?

"It is News 12's policy that reporters must be objective and not state personal opinions on-air," the station said in a statement Tuesday.

Well great! That means weather people rabbiting on about global warming causing hurricanes and rising sea levels will be silenced from now on! Good to know.

Better off being the TSA moron who didn’t know what or where the District of Columbia was.

Punch the clock, get paid, leave the thinking to others.

> Notice that he didn’t say anything, I repeat ANYTHING racist. He said that young men who grow up without fathers develop antisocial behavior. Strictly by the numbers, more African-Americans grow up without fathers than do children of other races. We could talk all day about why that is true, but the numbers back it up. Simple fact.

Go to ANY, i mean ANY police station with a large black population where they have to deal with black crime on a daily basis and ask them if this is true. If they’re off camera and off record they’ll tell you how exponentially worse their crime statistics are over any other race and provde their crime statistics to prove it. Their culture has created a lot of problems and until they get honest and real and man up nothing is going to change.

If you really want to annoy someone, point out something obvious that they are trying hard to ignore.

Yes, he committed a truth crime.

Meanwhile, no race baiting demagogue is too despicable for employment at MSDNC.

He committed the unforgiveable crime: saying the truth.

There is no question that children who grow up in fatherless homes have a much greater risk of major challenges in life than those who grow up with a father at home. These statistics are alarming and should give any father pause.
Incarceration Rates. “Young men who grow up in homes without fathers are twice as likely to end up in jail as those who come from traditional two-parent families...those boys whose fathers were absent from the household had double the odds of being incarcerated — even when other factors such as race, income, parent education and urban residence were held constant.” (Cynthia Harper of the University of Pennsylvania and Sara S. McLanahan of Princeton University cited in “Father Absence and Youth Incarceration.” Journal of Research on Adolescence 14 (September 2004): 369-397.)

Suicide. 63% of youth suicides are from fatherless homes (Source: What Can the Federal Government Do To Decrease Crime and Revitalize Communities? - see link below)

Behavioral Disorders. 85% of all children that exhibit behavioral disorders come from fatherless homes (Source: What Can the Federal Government Do To Decrease Crime and Revitalize Communities? - see link below)

High School Dropouts. 71% of all high school dropouts come from fatherless homes (Source: What Can the Federal Government Do To Decrease Crime and Revitalize Communities? - see link below)

Educational Attainment. Kids living in single-parent homes or in step-families report lower educational expectations on the part of their parents, less parental monitoring of school work, and less overall social supervision than children from intact families. (N.M. Astore and S. McLanahan, American Sociological Review, No. 56 (1991)

Juvenile Detention Rates. 70% of juveniles in state-operated institutions come from fatherless homes (Source: What Can the Federal Government Do To Decrease Crime and Revitalize Communities? - see link below)

Confused Identities. Boys who grow up in father-absent homes are more likely that those in father-present homes to have trouble establishing appropriate sex roles and gender identity.(P.L. Adams, J.R. Milner, and N.A. Schrepf, Fatherless Children, New York, Wiley Press, 1984).

Aggression. In a longitudinal study of 1,197 fourth-grade students, researchers observed “greater levels of aggression in boys from mother-only households than from boys in mother-father households.” (N. Vaden-Kierman, N. Ialongo, J. Pearson, and S. Kellam, “Household Family Structure and Children’s Aggressive Behavior: A Longitudinal Study of Urban Elementary School Children,” Journal of Abnormal Child Psychology 23, no. 5 (1995).

Achievement. Children from low-income, two-parent families outperform students from high-income, single-parent homes. Almost twice as many high achievers come from two-parent homes as one-parent homes. (One-Parent Families and Their Children, Charles F. Kettering Foundation, 1990).

Delinquency. Only 13 percent of juvenile delinquents come from families in which the biological mother and father are married to each other. By contract, 33 percent have parents who are either divorced or separated and 44 percent have parents who were never married. (Wisconsin Dept. of Health and Social Services, April 1994).

Criminal Activity. The likelihood that a young male will engage in criminal activity doubles if he is raised without a father and triples if he lives in a neighborhood with a high concentration of single-parent families. Source: A. Anne Hill, June O’Neill, Underclass Behaviors in the United States, CUNY, Baruch College. 1993

This cop was an unfortunate victim of circumstances; cops on the welfare reservations aren’t there to fight crime, but to pick up the pieces afterwards (they are no longer allowed to do their jobs because of racial sensitivities). The pro-active days of policing are done; now they fill out reports.

Cops have long since written these people off; they see the hopelessness up close, and know there is no solution but to wait them out (while minimizing the damage they do to People That Matter). The Dems’ plan of contracepting/aborting them out of existence is working, but slowly...

It’s pathetic that they claim to fire him for failing to be objective. When was the last time a left wing reporter (90% of all reporters) was objective?

How dare a white person express an opinion about the protected class.
Black people can even say the “N-Word” and nothing will ever happen. They can call white people ‘crackers’.

But you better know your place whitey!

“Um... news agencies and reporters stick their opinions into the news all the time.”.......

I’m not familiar with the TV way of presenting a story but are the reporters stories not reviewed by a news editor before being broadcast?

Frankly, I think the reporter has cause for legal retribution here. All he did was quote the victim...and that quote was in no way inflammatory.
