These temporary designations based on our material nature- Black and white, Jewish and Christian- can often be used to create barriers between us. Instead, let's all focus on our eternal nature as spiritual brings, and the love, peace and bliss that unites us. Namaste.

You're definitely confusing religion with race. God created ALL races; however, there's only ONE religion (according to His word). And, only THAT religion will be among the saved and to enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Everyone should put aside the race card. God doesn't care what race we are. We are all EQUAL in His eyes. Don't forget that! As for comments made, don't worry about them or what anyone says. It's up to God what He will do come Judgement Day!

ask the naacp if they would feel better if we post 2 white guys and also ask them why they don't get involved with helping the many black kids that do most of the crime instead of defending their actions especially in baltimore city.. Ask the naacp why they don't get involved when 5 black kids raped a white woman.. they are not an asset to the black community and its widely known.. They only condone racism at its fullest and not a christian like thing to do. We all bleed red and we all God's children and the naacp should cease to exist instead of making mega bucks doing not a dang thing..

Lame approch for Janet to create a non-existent story. Janet is the one who's looking to build racial tension, she should be ashamed of her self. This explains why the patch can't build any following.

I'm sure if the person was white their picture would have been posted also. It just happened to be a black person, the neighborhood has a lot of bikes stolen, and the only way to stop it is posting pictures of bikes and people with bikes. So the NAACP needs to get over it. I believe in an eye for eye. If you get caught stealing you loose a hand. It will make you think twice about stealing again. Won't it?

Bad asses come in every color, gender, size, and shape!

@John Rickell. you want to amputate a hand for a bike! which costs what $25 for a used one.
so what is next, you see a bike stolen, you grab the kid and cut his hand off?

@Sadida Scott it seems to be the only way today's hard headed thieves will learn not to steal, Death Penalty without appeals will teach people not to kill, Burn an arsonist's hand will teach them not to start fires. It is the only way today's idiots will learn.

Somehow a true black leader must emerge and address the real issues hurting the black population without being called an Uncle Tom.
Until then, we deal with inept reporting by Jayne Miller wannabees and the stock answers from so called black leaders.
Yawn. Waiting for the next issue to be created by the media to disrespect folks.

Where are all the grown ups over at Shomrim? The Facebook incident is juvenile.

It seems to me that Shomrim is trying to stir the pot for some reason. The posting of the black male on the bike was plain stupid.

John Rickell,

I guess you never stole a candy bar, or a piece of penny candy when you were a kid huh? Eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind.

Maybe he was just trying to help the economy by making someone buy a new bike.

If the NAACP, Jessee Jackson, Al Sharpton and the rest did not "race bait" and instigate racial tensions, they would not have a bunch of kool-aide drinking followers sending them money and keeping them in business. Ever wonder how much Jessee pays himself? Ever wonder how much Al Sharpton makes? Ever ask the NAACP so alled leaders pay themselves from money donated? You would be surprised. They are the ones that you are complaining about making a bunch of money and not having to work for it while 16% unemployment of blacks and over 50% black youth unemployment is running rampant under the obama administration. It looks to me that the NAACP has outlived itself. Watch this video because it is nice to see fresh faces that get it and are willing to speak out about it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rkVolT-B4cA

WOW..hate to jump to conclusions, but looks suspicious. NAASCP needs to grow up and call a spade aspade ( no pun ). Colored kids are killing each other, and innocent victims, in record numbers all over this country and this is what this organization has to worry about? SAD.

Ask this guy from Alexandria that was attacked in a racial attack. Yeah and the NAACP has NOTHING to say about this. They are such hypocrites. No wait, the NAACP are run by a bunch of "race baiters" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rkVolT-B4cA

Maybe Shomrim wouldn't be needed if Baltimoreans were more civil and more importantly if the police (Baltimore City - unprofessional lazy hotheads with low standards) were worth 2 cents other than being sued for it

Sometimes the truth hurts!

@Metzner, Sr: You are right about the bad asses. I just toured the Maryland House of Corrections (the one being demolished). Check out the entry log. Last tour day is tomorrow.

@Allen: You need to update your outrage. Jessie, the Rev Al and the gang have moved on. The Rev Al has a national TV and radio show with a substantial following. Jessie has his own baggage. The Dems are fighting the GOP and nothing is getting done for the people who elected them.

@Shomrim: Learn to live within the community. You aren't going to have the whole place to yourself no matter how you feel. We are all in this together, so grow up and learn to play well with others.

Yes, Shomrim is being coy. Yes, they are baiting the community and stirring up resentments and fears. Someone over there is immature and vindictive. Those attitudes serve no one well.

I don't think that Shomrim are the do gooders they try to portray themselves. In NYC they have been caught hampering investigations in order to protect Jews. If they catch a child molester they are instructed not to call the police but call the Rabbi instead.

instead of posting a pic of the guy with the bike maybe they should post a pic of him picking cotton

I thought you had to be an adult to post on this website? Will Goodwin's parent's please remind him it's not sundown yet.

NAACP-their motto, we wants, we demands, we entitled to.
The real racists.

I wish the NAACP cared about black people, instead of about grievances. If someone want to help black people in Baltimore, the solution comes through fixing the public schools by exposing them to competition. An educated populace is capable of growing and achieving.

We need charter schools, vouchers, and true school choice.

And then we need less taxes and regulations - it is nuts that anyone can deal drugs, but opening a store leads to months and years of red tape and obstruction by city bureaucrats. Education makes people employable. And less red tape means more businesses to hire!

Whats disgusting Janet Metzner is your leader in Mississippi getting arrested and convicted and sentenced to 10 years in prison for VOTER FRAUD in a story ignored by the national media. This is why you people are against voter ID!
"In a story ignored by the national media, in April a Tunica County, Miss., jury convicted NAACP official Lessadolla Sowers on 10 counts of fraudulently casting absentee ballots. Sowers is identified on an NAACP website as a member of the Tunica County NAACP Executive Committee."

"The Tax Assessor for Galveston County, Cheryl Johnson, says In the course of two weeks we received about 1300 registration applications, over 174 received from just three groups – the Voter Participation Center, the LCV Education Fund and the NAACP. Of the 174 received from these groups, roughly 10% were voters already registered but with a slight variation of their legal name or address, which could have resulted in voters being registered multiple times."

Janet Metzner of the NAASCP, when will your group do something about the 70%+ of your people having children with no fathers? Fix that issue and much of the poverty and terrible educational issues will disappear. Your group NEVER talks about that.

@Joe. You looked. You cared enough to look. Wow.

@Joe, Uh Joe, did you get the right name? Do you even know who Janet Metzner is? I think you landed on the wrong forum. Um, maybe you should take a look at the current topic and READ all of it, then try again. You are welcome.

The TRUTH hurts http://errvideo.com/ GET EDUCATED OUT THERE PEOPLE!

Ha ha you are as bad as Shoemall trying to promote junk.

I don't see anything wrong with a random photo of a kid riding down the street with an extra bike, as long as nobody is chasing after him! We're in new age of camera phones...another day in the life...big deal!!!
