Ferguson and the African-American Community

We all know the narrative: Racist white cop shoots innocent black child because its open season on innocent black children. There's an epidemic of racist white cops doing this for no other reason than they're racist.  OMG!  Save the children! (and loot a big-screen TV while you're at it).  Then, the truth comes out to wit: and the innocent child had just robbed a store, assaulted a cop, and was coming at him a second time.  But that doesn't matter, America is more racist today than ever, says the narrative. Wasn't Barak supposed to bring racial harmony?  Oops.

This video says it all:

 

Here's my thought:  Self-appointed "black leaders" speak like this is America of the 1950s deep south. It isn't.  We've got affirmative action and all kinds of special considerations for minorities. Don't give me the poor, disadvantaged black person is a victim of racism crap. Its a values problem. The black community in many cities (and I can speak from life experience) generally does not value education, fatherhood, and family values. Rather, they value victimhood, dependence on others (read Government) to take care of them, baby daddies, thug life, and easy money. The African-American community doesn't have a racism problem, it has a values problem.  Great men like Bill Cosby and Dr. Alvin Poussaint have been saying the same thing, but they are largely ignored...or called "Uncle Toms."

And what about when whites are victims? Are there riots? Chaos?  Morons to stand up and tell us how bad we have it in this racist country?  And if you don't think it happens, here are just two recent examples:

Many more examples are out there on the 'net. Just not in the media.  Remember the "this is for Trayvon" attacks?

But getting back to our beloved president.  Can someone please explain to me how he had time to send a 3-person delegation to Michael Brown's funeral (a political event), yet had no representation at General Green's (the highest ranking officer killed in combat since Vietnam) funeral just two weeks earlier? (a non-political event) Too busy playing golf, I guess.
