Reminds me of the Bill Mahr show where he quoted Michelle Obama when she talked about black kids having the wrong role models (rappers, etc.) but he worded it so that the guests assumed it was Mitt Romney (IIRC) that said it. Of course the black guest was outraged until he found out it was MO. He then proceeded to laugh, agree with her statement and put forth the notion that only certain people can criticize the black community.

He's right in that it is a problem.
I'd say the cop killing is more a problem of the pervasive "frick the police!" sentiment in the black community.
Also, IIRC, this is the case where the cop killer's wife or mother is bitching about all the sympathy for the slain officer and how no one is thinking about their loss.

And nothing White guys on a message board can't solve?
That number is thrown around without context when black birthrates are the lowest ever documented.
Plus 60% of ALL children born to Mothers in their 20' s are out of wedlock.
Overall by Race according to race illegitimate births
White mothers- 30% (growing & in the 1960's the Black rate of 25% was considered a 'crisis')
Hispanic mothers -53%
Black mothers-70%
Just because parents aren't legally married does not mean the Father isn't living in the home nor has a greater part in his kids life than your typical divorced father.
I know countless couples living to together or raising children who aren't married & are more engaged than your typical divorced couple.
Just because the 'Shotgun wedding' is dead in the Black community & dying doesn't mean 'unwed' mothers have been no more 'abandoned' than divorcees with kids.
Soon over half of all children in the U.S will be born out of wedlock.
The war on drugs has hurt families far more than a piece of paper (marriage license).
