Apparently your hatred runs deep -- how is it peaceful when the hispanics will not tolerate black or white Americans living in the neighborhood they took from the blacks who had been living there -- by running them out.

How is that any better than what the KKK was all about. They terrorized this family. Hardly peaceful. No more peaceful than the KKK terrorizing people so they could have racially pure neighborhoods.

Where/how would you house convicted criminals?

Hatred is hatred - and an ugly thing. It doesn't limit itself to demographics - which are a human invention designed to divide us.
But it still doesn't answer MY questions. Blacks were not safe before, and they aren't safe now. Tell me this. How is Compton safe if Blacks are scared for their lives in Compton?

There is actually nothing at all peaceful about hispanic gangs -- the MS 13 is about the most violent gang this country has ever known.

There is nothing peaceful about any gangs period. That was part of the point I was trying to make. And I know about MS-13. They are particularly scary.

Yes, no gangs are peaceful -- and it's absurd to think the hispanics are some peace-loving group when they've got the very worst gangs of all. MS 13 and it's affililiates are everywhere now, fast spreading and they are quite a bit worse than anything we've seen before as far as gangs.

That is one definition of a hate crime. However, there are many other types of hatred besides racial hatred.

Don't you define those as hate crimes also?

I hate no one.

I am simply stating a fact - that the neighborhoods in question are now much more peaceful then they were 15 years a go.

Once again, if you haven't been to Compton or South Central Los Angeles during either of those periods, then you wouldn't know.

I have, and I do.

Why not house them - in their homes?

Why should prisons even exist?

It wasn't peaceful for that Black family who got chased out of Compton.
