You see the death of Darryl Turner as an indictment of Darryl himself as well as his father. Me? I see it as an indictment on the white manager who felt the need to call the police and the police officer who felt the need to shoot 50,000 watts of energy into this boy's body for over 35 seconds. We should probably just agree that we see things from a different vantage point on this case ... and look for other areas where we might have move common ground...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05001965827509309490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6152307338772205194.post-39248914083978179982008-11-20T01:28:00.000-05:002008-11-20T01:28:00.000-05:00Hey Villager, I understand what you mean but black...Hey Villager, <BR/><BR/>I understand what you mean but black men need to start solving problems and NOT EVEN thinking about involving black women in every thing...can the black men in this nation rise up and just start solving problems and let the sistas sit and watch the men HANDLE SOMETHING ANYTHING on their own that will benefit the black community as a whole?<BR/><BR/>I am sad that this boy was killed...and it was wrong...but where was his father and WAS his father in the home raising his son and why was his son stealing from his employer? The behavior of this boy indicates that he was NOT in control of himself. It is STILL no justification for being electrocuted but I think sometimes our people pretend that these are innocent victims. <BR/><BR/>This boy did NOT deserve death. Not at all. But he was stealing from his employer and he was behaving inappropriately. This is not a reason for the police to be called on the scene but let us start addressing WHY our black boys are conducting themselves this way. This behavior is all too common in that age group.<BR/><BR/>Peace, blessings and DUNAMIS!<BR/>LisaLISA VAZQUEZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13583559303233985031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6152307338772205194.post-27453309503648632882008-11-15T08:57:00.000-05:002008-11-15T08:57:00.000-05:00Lisa - Many brothers are taking on this cause.

My hope is the entire Black community will look deeper into these unnecessary taser incidents ... regardless of gender.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05001965827509309490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6152307338772205194.post-19336429115981080132008-11-15T03:28:00.000-05:002008-11-15T03:28:00.000-05:00Hello,When black men are fed up with these legaliz...Hello,<BR/><BR/>When black men are fed up with these legalized electrocutions, then they will organize nationally and take a visible and collective stance with law makers...they will file class action suits... they will engage the media...they will push NAN, NAACP, NUL to aggressively protest...they will put their money where their mouth is...<BR/><BR/>They will not let up until the laser lynchings end.<BR/><BR/>When black men get fed up....LISA VAZQUEZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13583559303233985031noreply@blogger.com
