“He didn’t even know his son had gone out that night.”

And whose fault is that? Our parents knew where we were every minute of the day — and night.

The city of Asbury Park, NJ is 20 miles north of me. About ten years ago a 12 year old black girl went missing. When the girls body was found, beaten and raped there was a big out cry from the black community about “Why did this happen?’’. “Where were the police?’’. Turns out the young girl had been killed by a black teenager who's attorney used the ‘’diminished mental capacity’’ defense. There was a big outcry in all the local media bout this poor kid and her murder and then it was over. And in all the hollering no one ever asked the question: Why was a 12 year old girl out at ten o'clock at night(on a school night, if that matters anymore) by herself in Asbury Park, NJ?
