Black Hebrew Israelites are just confused African Americans/conspiracy theorists, although a small number of them did convert to actual Judaism. Some of them are black supremacists and anti-semites and believe the same nonsense/conspiracies as their fellow white supremacist neo-Nazi types.

I don't know, but I think black and Hispanic neighborhoods probably experience more violent crime.

That’s true that poor people in poor Black neighborhoods are much more likely to be as victims of violent crime. That’s a different issue with someone different solutions. That’s mainly gang violence.

Jewish people being victims of hate crimes is a very different issue.

Of course the city is not doing such a great job at dealing with either or any type of crime.

Sadly, I think they will get worse in the summer with more people out.

The city doesn’t seem to be doing much.

I agree. Different issues.
And the city is not doing much to help either situation, sadly.

Which is why I think both issues will get worse in the summer with more people out. The city is doing very little.

...over the past [lets say "YEAR"] -- watching the news - then they cut to the video.

so having cameras around is a good thing. maybe it will help I.D. the punks.. maybe it will even be a deterrence....






it's better than doing nothing. and YES......the jewish communities ALSO need to spend their own dough putting up surveillance cameras...and other deterrences....
