A town hall meeting on race, criminal justice and the death penalty brought together an array of community leaders to address the challenges people of color face in the justice system.
Held in the new sanctuary of the Unitarian Universalists of Southern Delaware, the event's speakers addressed stark disparities in enforcement activities and prison sentences, including the death penalty, as well as economic disparities that prevent people of color from making bail or hiring an attorney, all part of a battle for civil rights they said is not over.
Don Peterson, chair of the Unitarians' social and environmental justice committee opened the Sept. 24 meeting, co-sponsored by NAACP-Delaware, Delaware Repeal Project and others. "Unitarian Universalists have a long and proud history of standing at the side of sound justice," Peterson said.
Several speakers addressed a Wilmington shooting just one day prior to the meeting, when police shot and killed a wheelchair-bound black man, Jeremy "Bam" McDole, who witnesses had reported was armed with a gun.

Community leader is just a fancy term for a Rabble Rouser, or Sh!& disturber.
If you think the criminal justice system is unfair, simple solution, stay out of it.
If I am treated wrong at a store, I don't go back. I tell my friends about it and I learn and they learn. That's the problem, no learning and no parents to teach them to stay out of it.
OH blah blah blah. These people act like it rocket science or something. It's real simple-it's the democrat policies. The policies that dictate political correctness is more important then telling the truth. If anyone of these peons in this picture had one ounce of honesty they would tell the truth-but there lies the problem: A complete lack of honesty and morals within black communities.
The black family unit-mother/father-are on the brink of extinction. That's one of the many roots of the problem. The other is the black victim mentality. Another root the thug culture which promotes drugs, sex, violence and the music associated.
The economic disparity isn't rocket science either-again democrat policies whose open door immigration policies keep wages low and stagnant.
I have news for Peterson-his organization has NOT a thing to be proud of in reality. This notion of being proud for doing absolutely NOTHING is another difficulty within black communities. They have such low standards which is evidenced by their own voting practices and habits. First generation immigrant children are ahead of black children by leaps and bounds.
Nothing will change until these people who in reality are themselves still slaves to the democrat plantation and quite frankly are a joke decide to stop lying and get honest.
11:44 exactly. What is it with these people. They really are nothing but a bunch of simpletons. If you know you can't make bail or have money to hire an attorney then don't commit the crime. Take it steps further and stay away from all criminals, stay off the streets, don't do drugs, and only associate with people who are law biding, have positive goals and are accomplishing them. I really am beginning to think there is something inferiour about these people. Common sense is so foreign to them.
Good the guy had a gun. He deserved to be shot. Another gun off the streets. No wonder the black areas are war zones. It's God plan and God's punishment to these people for being fake Christians and enabling thugs to go around terrorizing neighborhoods. Hell awaits the thugs and these enablers. They won't be smiling when they meet their Maker that is for certain. Doing nothing more than the devil's work on earth.

Oh okay I get it "privileged." LOL- Another reason why blacks haven't advanced. Sitting around with their finger shoved up their butts worrying about who is privileged and who in not. That's real brilliant. Worry about yourself and not others. You create you own privilege and if you can't figure that out then don't bother commenting back because I will not tolerate stupidity. Do you understand.
Always making some excuse instead of taking personal responsibility.
But keep it up 2:42. Keep making excuses and in the meantime every other race will continue to advance except blacks.
Start by addressing the over 70 percent black child illegitimate rate.
Having baby after baby like this happens to be one of the major causes of poverty. All these fatherless black babies running around isn't cute. It's a national disgrace. It's uncivilized. In a civilized society mothers and fathers aren't running around making babies with multiple people. Instead of progressing, blacks are regressing back to the incivility and lawlessness which the African countries currently and have always experienced.
They need to learn to speak English instead of this nonsense they learn from listening to rap music. Again it is SO uncivilized. Start dressing like a civilized person instead of trying to emulate a gangsta. They dress like gang members in an attempt to look like a bad ass then complain when people are suspicious of them and profile. They are the ones trying to portray an imagine and then the dopes like these people in this pic wonder why profiling exists like it's some great mystery.

You must certainly think that you are so clever, don't you 2:42? No you are not. You are the perfect example of why blacks haven't progressed while other races-more specifically hispanics/latinos/asians have. You allow yourself to be a victim. Shame on you. Shame on you. What a weak person you are. A victim of the propaganda being rammed down your throat by the shovelfuls. "Privileged" Another buzz word dreamed up to add to the arsenal of excuses.
Big people don't have or fall for excuses. They seek solutions and plow forward not looking back not looking for reasons to quit.
Sure, I'm "privileged".
Because "privileges" are EARNED, unlike "rigjhts" which are, well...inalienable.
I stayed in school, avoided having babies I couldn't take care of, married and with two incomes and two committed, educated parents, we raised a family together.
We did not spend our money on ridiculous "weaves" or five inch claw fingernails, or 40" shiny rims that cost more than the vehicle, or brassy gold teeth.
We did not deal drugs, sell "loosies" on the street, indulge in thieving and burglaries, join gangs, loot and destroy, own illegal firearms, or resort to violence as a normal means of resolving issues. Therefore, our contact with law enforcement has been entirely casual and neighborly.
We planned and saved, and did not indulge in instant self-gratification.
Does this bestow certain "privileges"? Damn right it does, and it has nothing to do with skin color.
You choose to earn privileges, you do not have a right to them.
This white privilege nonsense was dreamed up by some white feminist author trying to sell a book and blacks jumped on it like flies on crap. Blacks again allowing themselves to be hosed by some race baiter out to make themselves rich by using blacks.
You create you own privilege and if you can't figure that out then don't bother commenting back because I will not tolerate stupidity. Do you understand.

Privileges are GIVEN genius. You and the others got theirs because someone GAVE it to them. You didn't earn anything other than continuing and advancing whatever your master told you to do. You just repeat whatever you hear and keep the hate going so you will fit in. Stay in school to get your brainwashing. Step on anybody to climb up your masters rope so you feel better than others so you can keep them down to continue your class warfare you received in your indoctrination.
You don't want others to respond to you because the truth might bust your bubble. You are slaves and will FIGHT to remain so. I am sure you are the brightest cog in the wheel. You have been lied to your whole lives.
You can stay that way or open your eyes and your heart and see the truth that is all around you. Nobody can do it for you. And most of you won't even try. That's your loss. If fat, dumb and happy is all you want, so be it.
Myself, I want more and will get it. And it won't be with hate in my heart. Peace.
