JASON WHITLOCK who wrote the article in the Kansas City paper is very perceptive. The problem is us.

When people are victimized in their own neighborhoods, when the language is the same as Imus's then look within and change.

When confrontation is the constant pattern of Jackson and Sharpton this further damages hopes for this great American quilt of people.

Imus isn’t the real bad guy
Instead of wasting time on irrelevant shock jock, black leaders need to be fighting a growing gangster culture.
