I just moved out of Jacksonville a couple of months ago and it is true that the population is predominately white, however, 95% of the violent murders occur in a specific part of that city that is mainly black.

That guys name was Ortiz.One individual. Proves nothing. Funny, I have never been flipped off by a Hispanic driver down here, but I was by a white driver in Seminole County after he cut me off. Why do you trust the article anyway? It was written by a Hispanic writer.

I watched the news down there for 12 years. I noticed that crimes tended to occur in poorer neighborhoods. Those poor neighborhoods tend to be occupied by blacks and Hispanics. My current area is 40 percent Hispanic. It is easily the safest city of over 10K in the state. People leave their doors unlocked here. My area is also one of the wealthiest larger cities in the state and country. Problems breed out of poverty and attitudes, not race. Not disagreeing that a few Latins have bad attitudes, and I absolutely DESPISE illegal immigration, but please...

Stop looking for a group to blame. Please. If you are going to blame anything for the downfall of society, blame the poor.

If you're asking me...I never had a sense of danger living in Jacksonville.
