So the die hard moderators are human after all?

Lesson! There is no king or queen on NairaLand- you are human, show respect for others, wish no evil to anyone, for death doesnt give you a warning before it strikes.

davidylan:

Words of advice, move to white suburbs. My town is 97% white and I can't tell you how much different it is from the next town 20mins away with an almost 50% black population.

dayokanu:

I am still struggling to understand your motives on this thread

@the replies, it AMAZES me how ppl use the death of someone to spew out venom against another ethnicity, how in the hell can you make this an anti-African American thread? a YOUNG MAN LOST HIS LIFE! Focus on THAT! Nigerians kill too, and futhermore how in the bloodseed do you all know these were African American perpetrators! Not all Nigerians are saints! The point is a killer is a killer and needs to be dealth with PERIOD!
Another thing is the pathetic section 8, ghetto, low income jokes, KILL IT! They way you guys are talking you are chocolate colored Ku Klux Klan members who happen to be born in Africa! You are NO different and should be thoroughly ashamed of yourselves! Scum!

dayokanu:

Seriously, thats why most African immigrant would rather move to the white dominated suburbs, Its better to be called a monkey than to be shot by some teenagers who need $50 for dope. I remember in  2008, around 87th in SOuth Chicago some AA's busted me and a friend at a Gas station with guns, took the car  for "joyride" and abandoned it when it was out of gas.

davidylan:

Mzdarkskin we are not scum, just stating facts. It's a running joke here even among the black folk who constantly warn us against opting to move to the black parts of town. African Americans have become a lazy scourge on America, deny it all u want. I won't be surprised Bawo lost his life to an  just looking for $20. Those who failed to raise any alarm in the name of snitching shld be ashamed of themselves.

Ibime:

Ive been thinking about this all the way home. Its more than shocking.

From the little I know of Bawo's personality, you can bet he doesnt even know the punks who shot him. He would never mix with such guys. Must be some random jux, and the guy just decided to waste his life for no reason.

Wetin dey worry these useless Akata boys sef? Cant they respect someone who is putting in effort to make something of their life?

DapoBear:

Yep. AAs who live in white neighborhoods are fine, and so are the rich AA neighborhoods say in PG County, Maryland (though even those kids are knuckleheads, to be honest.)
But living among poor black people is a very bad idea. I'd much rather live among poor white people or poor hispanics than poor blacks. Poor black people don't want to make their lives better, instead they want to make yours worse.
For Nigerians who live in the US, don't make the mistake of living in any of these poor black neighborhoods. Your life, peace of mind and property are worth more than the money you save in rent.

A.D.M.:

I'd like to extend my condolences to the family of the young man. May he rest in peace. Since the story never mentioned the identity of the killer or killers, we cannot assume they were black. A lot of white people in the U.S. kill, too. I live in a neighborhood that is ethnically mixed, but is still mostly black. It's a nice neighborhood and everybody of all colors get along. So, don't think a black neighborhood in the U.S. is all bad. Some are good.

There are white areas, mostly rural, that are bad. I know this is off topic, but whites make up the majority of welfare recipients in the U.S. Ghetto means "a place where people live." Look it up.

May the young man rest in peace.

Let's not turn this thread into an AA bashing one. I can almost imagine Bawo's response to the direction this thread is going and I chuckle. He would not have resorted to bashing anyone. In his memory and with utmost respect to him I plead with you all, please let's not go there. Once again Bawomolo, I wish you eternal rest
