Not trying to battle… Just a suggestion!
Honestly, I don't mind offending, I am just calling it how I see it. People are tired of this BS, sorry if I am not PC enough for your taste.

Sir, I mean no offense but you live in Southern Maryland so truthfully speaking, you've seen nothing. Talk to the residents of Baltimore & parts of DC and you'll know what "tired of the BS' is.

After opening your post I would have assumed that you were suggesting that this is the behavior of young black women... Me being one can promise you that not ALL black women act in this manner. This is the behavior of someone 1. With no home training.... 2. On drugs... or, 3. Has a mental problem....

I ride the METRO everyday and have seen something’s that were quite embarrassing but NEVER have I EVER seen anything or anyone act like this!

BTW...I'm sure you don't mind offending... However, when your judgment day comes I hope that you account for all of your actions because like it or not you will be held accountable. Again, I'm not trying to battle, I'm just telling it like it is!

I went to school in Charles County and I find it hard to believe "half the girls" in your school acted that way. I'm not sure if I would call it typical either.

However, I'm sorry if you went through that in school because no one should be treated that way (White, Black, Asian, Hispanic, etc.).

Nowhere in the video is a situation presented where deadly force would be prescribed. Responses like this serve as ammo for the anti gun loons.


NOW, a good taze would be in order.

Sorry if it is hard for you to believe. but, it's true.
I would most definitly call it typical.

To be blunt and completely honest, The african american girls in my school (most of them) resembled the girl in this video. not to the extreme she took it to, but it was not suprising.

I remember teachers, and students both getting harassed by them, for just walking into a room, or wearing a certain outfit.

I have seen a lot of girls getting in people's face's for absolutely no reason. Beating the hell out of eachother for giving eachother a wrong look.

I don't want to be stereotypical, but i have seen this kind of thing way to many times.

I’m not doubting that a lot of the “African American” girls at your school were “out of order” but to say “half’ is just a bit extreme.
Unfortunately, some people find this behavior to be acceptable. I don’t think this comes along with being a certain color but I believe it’s from lack of home training, anger, and dealing with ones own insecurities. I know I may sound crazy when saying this but some people really just know any better because they’ve never been taught otherwise. It’s sad but true.
I'm just not a fan of "stereotyping"!

I am glad you know me so well that you know where I have lived in my life and what experiences I have had.
