I'd like to see credible resources that SAY exactly as you said it, that africans evolve to be violent. Any studies that say those words, that talk about the way in which blacks are wired to be more violent than other races?

I'm waiting.

Contrary to your intentions, though, I'm not trying to insult. I'm saying it to open your eyes and show you the seriousness of your situation. Educate your children and teach them to be upstanding, honorable adults. Don't have your kids mumbling around cops, grabbing at their waistlines constantly to keep their 3-sizes-too-large pants up, acting like morons, and then being surprised when things go south.

Teach your kids to respect authority and to embrace responsibility. Maybe then you wouldn't have 70+% of your youth growing up without fathers. That fact alone should spur you to serious introspection and self-criticism; but no, it's easier to blame the White Man for your shortcomings.

I can't even take you serious with the amount of idiocy in your post.

"So you have no real rebuttal and have to resort to criticizing the guy's spelling? For all you know, English might be his second or third language. How many languages can you speak properly? If you're the typical inner-city African-American, the answer is "<1"."

Yeah, keep making excuses for the same guy who stated African Americans are destroying the country, and then make asinine blanket statements without any proof to backup your claims. How many languages can I speak properly? One, but please enlighten me on how you know how many languages the "typical' AA speaks.

"Contrary to your intentions, though, I'm not trying to insult. I'm saying it to open your eyes and show you the seriousness of your situation.

I don't have any kids, and it's hard to show how serious I am with a person who insults the intelligence of an entire group of people, yet hasn't accomplished anything themself.

"Teach your kids to respect authority and to embrace responsibility. Maybe then you wouldn't have 70+% of your youth growing up without fathers. That fact alone should spur you to serious introspection and self-criticism; but no, it's easier to blame the White Man for your shortcomings."

Self-Criticism? I have no control over what other AA's do & once again, I don't have any kids. How about teaching your kids that Black people aren't a monolithic group of people just like Whites, Asians, etc... & what Jerome does in Florida has no bearing over what John does in Georgia.

" it's easier to blame the White Man for your shortcomings"

Oh right, you're one of those types. Nvm.

There are also many white on black, white on white, & black on black crimes. That does not negate or change the fact that the victim of THIS crime was picked for opportunity AND for skin color. You can argue that all you want - this is a forum after all...but facts are stubborn things.
4) Based on YOUR comments, the one making generalizations is YOU. That's generalizations...with a Z dear. Try to be consistent.

I'm more responding to the general attitudes expressed in this thread, not simply yours. Should have made that clearer.

As for this criminal being picked for his skin colour...any proof of that?

Finally, generalisations can be spelt either way. I grew up in the Caribbean and use Commonwealth spelling, as does the remainder of the Anglophone world.

It seems that poverty and people being crowded into urban areas with no hope contribute to crime much more than race. The person who posted about crime being less in rural areas in the South despite there being a high black population has a point. If you live in a trailer in the country, you can get outside and take your frustration out with physical activity. What do you do in an overcrowded apartment complex surrounded by concrete? There have been many studies done about the effect of living on top of each other with very little stimulus. It can drive people crazy. It is time to try to help our cities and communities help our youth. They are all "our" youth, no matter their race, and we need to find answers to crime committed by all races.
