They do it all the time - doesn't make it right but this one made the news, many others don't.

Agendas aren't bad if they're honest and don't promote hate and violence.

Well, you can't win em all, maybe it was Jesus Christ or Abraham that said it, somebody said something like it somewhere in that book, I think I've told you before "I spent 3 years in the seventh grade.

Who Said it.........................

That's quite a conclusion to draw from a kid saying he's going to have a gun b/c he's going to be the police.

I'm guessing many, if not most, boys associate police with uniforms and guns.

When I was a kid we always played with toy or imaginary guns. It's part of being a boy, isn't it? I don't think you can draw any conclusions about this particular boy based on that brief "interview."

Mrs, to answer your question, I have no reason to think it was racist, but horrible journalism and unethical, yes.

Mrs.PatsFanInVa

Agreed - and many, if not most, young children look to the police to protect them. Wanting to grow up and be one of those doing the protecting is not a bad thing.

I would be proud to have a child who wanted to become a policeman. In fact, I don't know any parent of any little boy who hasn't, at one time or another, heard his pre-school little boy say he was going to grow up and be a policeman or a fireman.

Are all of them to be suspected of being somone who who will indiscriminately kill before ensuring he's shooting the right person or even if he should shoot?

Or is it just the little ghetto kids?

Something's seriously wrong with anyone who reads anything dangerous or bad in a 4 year old wanting to be "the police."

Mrs.PatsFanInVa

Would you agree that, regardless of the motives, the edited version promotes racism?

chicowalker

Only among those predisposed to think that way, imo -- and while that's not a good thing, they're going to have those opinions anyway.

The media is ignoring flash mob attacks.....
