The question isn’t if there are good black people, it’s if black society rallies around and celebrates these good people or only rallies around the useless criminals.
What is your answer to this or experience with this?

Crazy how if they were billionaires and pedophiles that wanted to cut benefits for veterans and cut social security for your parents and grandparents that worked their entire lives paying into, you’d support their run for President.

Why would you give up your solid "if you don't know any good black people" argument? You seem proud of it.

Has anyone seen the new Michael Jackson miniseries on Netflix? I hear it picks up on items left out of the theater biopic.

go check out the Cartier Family on Youtube and X
A group of young black men from laffy that used to run track for USL. They discuss and react to all sorts of political, pop culture, and current events.
Good dudes and very objective. We agree on a lot but not everything. Heck they don't even agree with other all the time. They''ve even changed my mind on a couple of things by offering me a different perspective.

Is that what you got from the OP? That the point was "there aren't any black people that are good"? If that is that you concluded from the OP, then you have severe reading comprehension issues. Public School is apparently worse than I feared.

Rodney King didnt deserve that beat down. Take him off the list and I agree.
The beatdown isn't the point. He wasn't exactly a saint.

They were all tragic mistakes or senseless attacks.

No he wasn't. But the beating he took deserves to be criticized.
On the flip side, George Floyd wasn't a saint, but the police did no wrong there imo. The riots were too much.

Love the Cartier family. Started watching them for their music video reactions.
Hopefully they stay united for the long haul. I wanna be 90 years old and watching YouTube videos of the Cartier family who are in their 70s at that point.

A good example is that track case last year. A black girl smacked another black girl in the head with a baton, and the majority of black people seemed to rally around the attacker and not the victim. Makes no sense.

Two of my closest friends in this life are black. I knew them both from our church in Los Angeles and have written about them often on td.com. One of them lost his wife prematurely to kidney disease. Both their sons were living out of state when she took a turn for the worse and out of all the people that he knew from a lifetime of living in L.A., he called me to go sit with him in the ICU while he held her hand as she left this world. The other invited my wife and me to his family celebration when he retired. There were close to 50 family members in the house. My wife and I were the only white people. We're that close.
Neither one of them has anything at all in common with the trash defending Karmelo Anthony. They're both hard working family men who served their country and with whom I share core values.
So I'm not going to be lectured by you nor made to feel guilty for pointing out what has happened to black culture in America. If you are black and you defend Karmelo Anthony because he's black, you're a racist. End of story.

Oj murdered two people.
Michael Brown committed strong armed robbery and then on the way home punched a cop in the face and tried to grab his gun.
Floyd was just a generic black ghetto male who killed himself by stupidly swallowing all his drugs, and died soon after.
Karmelo murdered another young man just because he was asked to leave.
Where does Rodney King fit in that we're still demonizing him several decades later?
I'd replace king with Jacob Blake. Blake had finger raped a woman.. woman called 911, police came, Blake went for a knife against the police and was shot. He and his family are millionaires now.
