Big up to Judge Marvin S. Arrington of Fulton County, Georgia in the city of Atlanta.  On March 28th Judge Arrington entered his court room and found that most of the people standing before him were young Black men.  Judge Arrington said "I came out and saw the defendants, about 99.9 percent Afro-Americans, and at some point in time I excused some of the lawyers, most of them white, and said to the young people in here 'What in the world are you doing with your lives?"  I applaud the judge for talking straight to these young black people, especially at a time that we NEED this kind of one on one love. So why are white people objecting to what the Judge Arrington?  Oh yeah, he excluded them from the lecture.  Judge Arrington showed a deep concern and care as he said about the youth he was talking to that day in court "I didn't want them to think I was talking down to them; trying to embarrass them or insult them; be derogatory towards them and I was just saying 'Please get yourself together."  I guess white people feel they just have to be a part of what we need to do for ourselves.  Well everything is not for them and we have to simply do things for ourselves!  Once again a real big up to Judge Arrington for caring when he could just simply send them to jail.
