This teen won’t go to prison, even after he hacked 50,700 computers

Finnish sentences for youthful offenders are far more lenient than those in the U.S., yet Finland is hardly known as the youth crime capital of the world.

Study: White people see “black” Americans as less competent than “African Americans”

I had begun collecting headlines from my Yahoo! News feed about racial attitudes — anyone’s racial attitudes — to the end of substantiating that there are very, very few studies of such attitudes among blacks.

I conclude that I don’t need to substantiate it. I can just make the blanket statement. The evidence is overwhelming.

Political correctness mandates that nothing black folk do can possibly matter. As I’ve said before,  “Under political correctness, ‘The single most forbidden subject is how people act — who are black.'”

(Note, Thursday 2015-07-16:  This headline has now appeared in my Yahoo! News feed for three consecutive days.)

The mother’s name is Sandra McClary, the father’s name is Cordell Lee Hall, and the baby’s name is Angelique Patricia Morgan.  What is wrong with this picture?  “She’s also facing burglary charges in a separate incident. ”
