      <![CDATA[This makes me very sad. I have a friend who was knifed shortly after moving to Seattle to attend AiS. Thankfully it wasn't serious, so he didn't tell his family because he knew they'd freak out and move him back home. I would hate to think about how different my life would be had I forged that relationship. Sadly, a lot of other people won't get a similar opportunity.

      <![CDATA[&gt;"highly dysfunctional culture that celebrates violence and guns"<br />
<br />
Checked out the marquee at the Hell Plaza Octoplex lately? How about the video-games and "sporting goods" departments at the local Wal-Mart? Briefly describe both who's shopping and what's on offer.<br />
<br />
But I prefer to focus on the victim rather than the perpetrators. It would be fine-and-dandy if someone passed the hat at the memorial and set up a Nicole Westbrook scholarship at your local accredited cooking school. Set up an online link, and I'll donate too.

      <![CDATA["They ARE more prone to violence"<br>
<br>
Genetically and racially they're not, they just come from a highly dysfunctional culture that celebrates violence and guns, and all the while earnest white liberals pat them on the back, encourage the behavior and tell them 'it's not your fault'. <br>
<br>
And yes, I avoid groups of young blacks males dressed like thugs on the streets at night. If Ms. Westbrook had done that, she'd be alive today.<br>
