I just wish we would raise our black men differently. Because what we are doing isn't working well for anyone. *sigh* |
we can start by respecting each other enough to 1. get married 2. wear condoms

I definitely agree with that.
But to take it further it seems like this man genuinely has no idea what he did wrong. How could he, if the message we are giving black men is that this behavior is okay?
Who was helped by what he did? People were only hurt, including himself.

wow.
i bet if the driver was a white man he'd still have a job. that man gave that company 25 years of blood, sweat and tears. driving those inner city streets, risking his life for the city. he dealt with belligerent thugs, hoodlums and violent hoodrats and did it all with a smile.
after 25, looooong years, he reaches his breaking point. that brotha may have been going through a personal crisis that day and was discombobulated at that juncture. when that rat spat and hit him, while he was still driving, he was still professional enough to keep the bus from swerving and causing an accident.
sad that we applaud another brotha who is jobless. at his age he should be enjoying his grandkids, fishing, playing dominoes, becoming a deacon, watching jeopardy imho. that rat took it all away. so now he's unemployed in a bad economy, no income, scared for his life because of death threats, at the ripe age of 68.
i hope artis gets uplifted by the community because that man is a asset. i wish artis hughes the best of luck and i hope he's given a second chance.
