Don Lemon... Is it your journalistic mission to point out as frequently as possible

[busterbrown]

what's wrong with the black community?.. Every time this guy is on CNN he seems to me he is touting right wing talking points concerning the breakdown of black lower middle class communities..

O.k. we get it mr. Handsome Afro-American T.V. star.. But how about solutions which do not consistently use the the words “Responsibility and Role Models” Maybe how the right wing is trying to destroy inner city poor educational
institutions and programs... You make me sick..

1. Wow...that's fairly disgusting.

He's a pretty fair guy and afaic very intelligent and well educated.

Man, that's just sad.

[jessie04]

2. Btw....since when is personal responsibility in parenthood...

a right wing talking point ?

That is just waaaaaaaay off base.

[busterbrown]

6. When consistently referring to the Afro/American community it is...

[jessie04]

7. Wow... I'm actually speechless.

I think your anger is totally misplaced...but enjoy it as you will.

[busterbrown]

9. It’s not anger..Just pointing out the subtle innuendoes of racists talk.. Code.

Like when Ron Reagan’s “Welfare Queen” remark which was the start of republican safety net slashing.
You think “Welfare Queen referred to a White Woman?

10. So now Don Lemon is a "racist" ?. Seriously ?

Ok....if you want you can have the last word.

I'm .....done.

3. Who has more of a right to criticize absent African American fathers than a successful black man?

4. don Lemon speaks

from a place he doesn't know. and yes he believes in stereotypes. They tore his ass a new one for some ignorant crap he said months ago.

[jessie04]

5. I noticed you didn't say he was wrong.

Bill Cosby talked about parental responsibility a few months ago....

You have a problem with him too !

[busterbrown]

8. Yea I do..

The inner schools have been decimated with recent financial cuts that have destroyed most of the after school programs which were safe areas for kids at risks.. You see most parents living in these areas are working probably 2 jobs and can’t be home for their children after school leaving them in harm’s way..

Never heard Bill talk about this... Have you?

12. Which has nothing to do with a millionaire football star.

13. Perfect Response..

Meaning, “you see ,they still aren’t responsible”..

Did you read this link for God sakes?

14. I like Lemon & Cosby -- but

I think that you make a critical point.

Morality (or the lack thereof) isn't the problem.

I get what you are saying.

It's a blame the victim mentality, to a certain extent.

15. Unbelieveable.

so bad parenting has its excuses...."its not his fault he's a horrible parent, no, , he's a victim".
