"an African-American man"...NO respect, NO conscience. NO morals. NOTHING but HATRED & EVIL! Wonder if these ghetto thugs have grandparents and IF THEY would like it if someone robbed or beat them up? Just shameful!
ReplyDeleteBefore the government offered people on SSI the option of direct deposits, elderly people in African-American communities were often beaten and robbed.
ReplyDeleteYet, you seldom heard about it on the news.
Still, ANYONE who beats or robs an elderly person has NO respect, No conscience and NO morals. I take particular offense to the elderly & children becoming victims. And the only reason we're hearing about these crimes is because you are keeping us informed Timothy and doing the work the mainstream media should be doing. Otherwise, we wouldn't be hearing about these either.
ReplyDelete"Still, ANYONE who beats or robs an elderly person has NO respect, No conscience and NO morals"
ReplyDeleteI absolutely agree. But that's to be expected when you are dealing with sociopaths.
Towanda, sometimes I wish I could do more to keep people informed. I hope my blog continues to grow, so more people will become aware of the crimes in their neighborhoods.
