The chef who ran the “Across the Street Diner” in Corsicana, Texas, bought the diner and makes what are possibly the best hamburgers on Earth. Since it’s a diner, the fries are fresh cut.

There are plenty of good black people out there unfortunately there are many bad ones too. I see a lot of hard working black men who are usually good people. You get the ones with chips on their shoulders too. It’s the younger crowd who don’t work who cause most problems. From the age of 12 to 30 there are a lot of troublemakers who rob, steal and sell drugs. We use to lock them up but now we let them out to commit more crimes.

I think some blacks are consciously making an effort to improve the overall negative image.

Look at any current television commercial. No inner-city lifestyles shown.....

—”Surprised they haven’t pulled that one down.”

Notice that my reply appears to have vanished?
It was the top comment at the NYP site:

I think this would be a wonderful opportunity to pause for a moment and give
thanks for the great contributions of the black community to our society.
Their peaceful and generous nature makes them ideal neighbors, lending
testimony to their exceptional family values and parenting skills unrivaled
by any other culture. Their child-rearing practices and skills mixed with their
unparalleled work ethic are second to none. Their rational and logical thought
toward circumstances coupled with their innate capability to de-escalate
situations are to be envied and coveted...

All of those skinny fries taste horrid and they are always cold and hard.

If a person orders them, they won’t stay hot for 5 minutes. A diner near me has the best fries, seasoned well too, that I have had in ages. A Greek guy runs the place.

Most likely they were juvenile offenses, that is why they are sealed.

...I tend to believe her description of how rude and disrespectful the clerks were. All those clerks deserve to lose their jobs...
*****************************

The employees of McD should be held responsible by the owner of this store. There is such a shortage of workers that I bet nobody loses their jobs, except the cook who lost his life.

All that and acting out what they see on various screens, what some see on a screen becomes their reality.

Recall the once popular “side grip”, a virus that burned through the rapper class.

Like a super bowl commercial in a bizarro world.

“I talked to my son with the cops. My son is just saying that he gotta do what he gotta do and the [victim] came after him and whatever happened, happened,’’ she said.

Well, that certainly clears it up for me.

—”I have on occasion dealt with blacks and thought they were going above and beyond in being pleasant or accommodating,”

Most are no different than the rest of us trying to make a living and have a life.

What we see in the “news” shapes our perspective and “If it bleeds, it leads”

That said, the numbers also shape our perspective.

The researchers found that the percentage of black men with a felony conviction increased from 13% in 1980 to 33% in 2010 (compared to 5% and 13% for all adult men during these periods, respectively).

Especially the over 60 year olds who actually did spend part of their lives being unfairly discriminated against.

Raising children with the belief that their every failing is “somebody else’s fault” is a recipe for disaster. We now have two generations being told that by their “leaders” and by Dem politicians.

“Look at any current television commercial. No inner-city lifestyles shown.....”

TRUE.
But huge swaths of the vast wasteland glorify thug life.
And for some that becomes their reality.
