it goes directly against the people saying he "never carried a gun" and "wasn't a violent person" which are both comments being floated during the protests.

Along with a culture of violence, the dissolution of the family structure, and overall lack of discipline and accountability, the fact that blacks are so quick to defend and lie about the actual criminal and uncivilized behavior of these thugs is a HUGE part of the problem here.

It's hard to have sympathy for these thugs, or their grieving loved ones when they repeatedly refuse to accept that there was a history of violence, criminality, and reprehensible behavior.

The term "dindu" didn't just appear from thin air. Time after time we see some wailing mother beside herself, insisting that her dead thug was a "good boy" who "dindu nuthin", only to have the dudes rap sheet be revealed to show crime after crime after crime. Look lady, I know your son is dead, and that's tragic. But what was your stance when junior was stealing, fighting, raping, dealing, and thugging all those past times? Did it never occur to you that his actions were a yellow brick road to this final fate?

Irresponsible, insufficient, and unqualified parenting is at the heart of most of these problems. And the culture of most black communities that accepts and promotes the single parent multiple father welfare model has got to be changed before this gets any better.
