If we as a nation, and if leaders as well, looked at behavior instead of race then I think it's likely poor behavior would not be subsidized through race baiting and other social apologies across all classes.
It is startling to me that Obama so clearly interjected race into the case and in effect focused on that single issue of a case dealing with so much more. Why didn't Obama speak about behavior?, why did he speak at all if it was only to interject race into a complex case? Gives you an idea of his prism, and why hes a failure as a leader.
A fundamental issue that faces the black community is not accepting responsibility for bad behavior and instead asking to be subsidized socially, financially, judicially, and academically due to the color of their skin. That's really certain black leaders fault, the individuals who excel are certainly doing so apart from the color of their skin and yes perhaps inspite of it certain circumstances. The subsidies have been the reason the bad behavior has not changed, it's not because the whole world is against the black community. It's a massive disservice to the capability of every individual to apologize for someone's bad behavior because of the color of ones skin. Rachel Jeantel comes to mind. We can call her stupid because frankly she is, apologizing or glossing over and forgiving her for her stupidity insults the black community. She's stupid and she's black, the important thing regarding her effect is the stupidity not the color of her skin. But by apologizing for her stupidity because of her color it insults black peoples equality of substance to everybody else. You don't have to set the bar low enough, based on skin color, that Jeantel is considered intelligent, that's absurd for christs sake. That's what Piers did and i'm sure a number of people ate it up. Larry Elder was spot on for calling out the hypocrisy and frankly racism of Peirs. I'm not sure why any black leader wouldn't be upset that Racheal isn't valued on the merit of her behavior and achievement, but instead is viewed through the color of her skin to somehow not admit that she's stupid relative to everybody else.
Some of these black leaders are simply insidious in their effect on the folks they claim to be getting paid massive amounts of dollars to help.
