This from a guy that wouldn't criticize the anti-Christ until he first determined his party affiliation.

I don't share that to say "blacks are inferior" somehow. It has just become very clear to me that within that community there is a pervasive belief that the police, the government etc are out to get them and they view the world through that lens. It is analogous to how so many LDS are prone to seeing "anti-LDS" sentiment when what they are really seeing is ignorance. I have sometimes thought that was as LDS have a persecution complex because, in fact, at points in the past and occasionally now, we were in fact persecuted. Multiply that by two or three orders of magnitude and you begin to understand the "black" view of society. They probably come by it rightfully, but the inability to see cause and effect in the world hinders them as a group. I am not surprised in the least that many in the black community think Vick is being picked on. When you explain to them that the dog fighting evidence was discovered in a search for something completely unrelated and the can't just ignore evidence of other crimes, it does little to change what they already know in their hearts.

Which part do you disagree with?
Is it that blacks have trouble integrating into society? That dogfighting is something that anyone can mistake their way into? Or that you should have kids protesting for admitted dog torture and gambling activity?

You need to take some time off the board to get some life experiences.
