Careful with that thing, you'll put an eye out.
Liberty has been estranged from the native black community.

what?
Mr. Mcgranor,
You seem like an intelligent, interesting, thoughtful sort. As such, I'm asking these questions, not as as an irritant, but in an effort to understand your reasoning.
What liberty has to do with one man shooting another, regardless of race?
I'm familiar with the terms white community, Asian community, black community, etc. Isn't the only real "native" community on this continent the Native American population we named "Indians" when our ancestors came here from Europe?
