    WHEN WILL MY YOUNG BLACK MALES SNAP OUT OF IT???….STILL GOT COWARDS ROAMING LIKE CELL PHONES…SIGH!

    • the truth says:

      While it’s ‘statistically’ probable that the culprits were black, there’s no concrete evidence that this was carried out by a Black male.

        Your Kidding right?. You think it was committed by one of the expats????? !!!

        • the truth says:

          No I’m not kidding. What are you trying to say, that only Black people use firearms? You only show your own mental limitations with that comment. Here’s a newsflash for you: I’m Black, gainfully employed, educated, own my own home, have never used drugs, and never shot anyone. Oh, and I don’t eat Fried Chicken, Watermelon, and my taste in music isn’t limited to Gangster rap and reggae. Any other stereotypes you wish to discuss today?

    • street life says:

      well they been assuming most crimes were committed by blacks for over 200 years. Why not today…

      • the truth says:

        Pretty much, and its aggravating. But then, there’s plenty of people who think like Mr. Delmonte.

    I was at function last night in Warwick near the gas station that was held outside. From what I heard it did sound like gun shots however we quickly noticed there were fire works on the South Shore further up the country. Jusat saying, and it was aound that time.
