10 year old commits suiside?
The parents should get an attorney and I hope that attorney is not corrupt. Y'all can call me the "angry Black woman" all y'all want but I will not stupidly accept any crap told to me or reported.
This story has definitely hit a cord with me and it should with all Black people in America. A false sense of security or accomplishment can do a lot of damage. It is a good thing to be vigilant and our (Black) men and women need to step up and speak out.
It is long and deep! My hubby was reading it and was like "What's up with that?"
I'm like those mfers at work.....I'm not a racist, but I am not stupid either ~roll eyes~

So,
Let me see if I have this straight.
Someone walked into a school or was already in the school, waited around for a child to go into a bathroom, or lured the child into the bathroom, or carried him into the bathroom, picked this kid up, lynched him in a bathroom, correct?
So, to you, it's a distinct impossiblity that a young black child could hang himself?

Obviously something was going on with that child.
Its sad.

Don't be crass Dalexis. Predators often target a child/individual and watch them for days, weeks, or even months to years in order to pounce at the right time for their attack.
You need to remember that children do not have your experience to know how to react when threatened. Even teachers will target kids at school and pick on them.
And do not believe that kid hanged himself.
Not being CRASS, at all.
With the security that exists inside schools these days ever since the the days of knucleheads with shotguns coming inside and killing off students, while predators sometimes DO get inside, its a rarity...and they are usually sexual predators.
Second,
from a news standpoint, which sells more papers?
"Child Kills Self in Hanging"
or
"Black Child Lynched in School Bathroom?"
It seems to me the 2nd headline would sell more papers, if they wanted more circulation.
As for children not having experience, these days, because of the media attention paid to predators, both on the 'net AND in real life, 3-D land, they are better informed at that age than most of US were at that same exact age.
Finally, why do you not believe "that" kid killed himself? Unless you know him or his family, you nor I really have no way of truly knowing that, do we?

The assassination of the BART rider & riots in Oakland were not widely publicized... That's news worthy but with a Black President???...can we afford to let the world know that things are still the same in the USA? This country is trying to to sell the "we have changed and great step forward" message.
Not all kids are using the Internet at home or at school despite the perceived notion that they are. It is unfortunate that parents do not protect their children's innocence and use television to babysit and teach them them.
No I do not know that family or the child involved but I did not know Emmit Teal either.
I did not suggest that suicide does not happen.
