  A father who rapes his daughter is a pathological sociopath, not a wayward teen. The judge preaching to that sicko should have saved his energy for those who are NOT pedophiles. There's a difference between troubled youth and a sex predator.

  Spike thinks you should kick the White people out so he can "correct" these idiots in front of him, without doing it in front of Whites. Don't worry, the White community already knows these idiots are worthless and criminals. What the judge should have done is dress them down in front of the entire courtroom, then he should have taken on their parents, and finally, people like spiker who feel that it is important to protect the vulnerable black youth from White people.

  Kudos to both Mr. Cosby and Judge Arrington. Nowadays it seems that no one has any hope for anything, and that lack of hope is continued being passed down to the next generation. Whenever I see kids and young adults, it's almost like they're the walking dead. No emotion, dragging their feet, no care in the world.
  
  We as a community seriously need to do our part and not sit and wait for government to do things. We need to build more parks, fields, and community centers for kids to go play, get physical education, art, music, more afterschool activities back in schools, make sure school administrators start really caring about the kids and teachers so where they won't have to be in fear of violent students (recent headline story in Baltimore should wake folks up) and they can try to learn in peace, enforcing homework (I've seen way too many kids with seemingly empty bookbags or none at all), and for goodness sake, get rid of the No Child Left Behind act.
  
  We also need to act like a real community again. Like years ago, when a child got in trouble, one neighbor would tell your mom/dad, and there was no question you would be in trouble. Now, the parents are young and let kids run wild (good example, my neighbor, who in her words, she didn't know who her kids were hanging around. Sad thing was that she seemed proud to announce that fact). And when their kids get into some kind of trouble, they're always quick to fault everyone else. And dads, you need to be there for them too. Walking out on your family and responsibilities doesn't make you a man, you will never be "free", and it will haunt you some day.

  "The judge has admitted he shouldn't have made white people leave as he tried to scare straight some young black men during the March 27 court session. He said he wanted only to get the defendants' attention without dressing them down in front of whites."
  
  NOOOO.................. If the judge has to kick out whites in order to give a dressing down to these young blacks then he should kick out the whites!!!! There was no mistake there. He was simply fighting the good fight. God bless this judge, Cosby, and Tucker.
