Straight Up: Black youth is a disgrace

OK, so i'm sure most of you from the NY area have heard about the white guy on the A train who was harassed then beaten up by this group of young black kids, led by a loud mouthed 18 year old black girl. If you haven't seen the video or read the story, here's the link...http://www.nydailynews.com/news/ny_crime/2007/12/07/2007-12-07_dad_sorry_for_a_train_teens_actions-1.html

For about 3 minutes it's just listening to this girl yell at this guy who seems to be confused as to why they're bothering him. You can hear lots of racial slurs, and it sounds like they're just bugging him cause he's white and these kids have nothing else to do. By then end they begin punching him and throwing punches at him. And i was just in shock at what i was seeing. This is the second time this year i've had the pleasure of seeing young black girls act like animals. Earlier in the summer at the Port Authority i had to be a part of a minor scuffle in which these 3 girls tried to cut in line and threatened to beat up these white girls behind me. Eventually they were kicked out of line by security, but that was after they ran off their foul mouths and made me ashamed to be associated with them by race.

Now seeing this girl on this video it makes me wonder what is going on with the world. There were guys involved too, but it was the girl who was the ringleader. It was interesting to see in that article that the girls father came forward and ratted out his own daughter. He claims he thought he did a good job with her, but he doesn't know what went wrong. I mean you gotta know there's something wrong with you when you're own father is willing to turn you over to the police. It's like something out of Maury.

I heard someone say once that they were definitely ready to send their future kids to charm school so that they can formally learn how to act. And i totally believe that it might be the right move to make. For a boy or girl. Seeing these girls, and also those girls at the Port Authority, it made me see why so many educated black men go after non-black girls. I wanted to actually say that to them, but didn't wanna get into it with them. I felt like i would have to dumb down my words in order to speak to them and even that thought made me upset.

These kids need to get their lives in order, and pick up a book. Or even join a club at school so that they have something to do with their time instead of harassing people on the street. You can't spend your whole life riding the train nowhere just so you can bother someone for looking at you the wrong way. Or even be smart enough to know that if you beat up a white man, chances are you're gonna get taken down a lot faster. Especially if you're dumb enough to tape it. THey claim the person recording it was an aspiring filmmaker, but still, recording something like that in public isn't the way to get discovered. These kids need better role models, and need to be saved quick. It's disgusting, and disgraceful.

I'll quote Crash right here: "You embarrass me. You embarrass yourself"
