There are pockets where violence is bad. It's not just the people in most of these areas. People point out Chicago but Chicago is and has been corrupt for decades. Corruption breeds corruption.
I could take the high drug addiction in certain Appalachian areas and say "Whites are nothing but drug addicts" but it would hardly mean anything overall. That pocket of people do not represent anything in the big picture.
I've also addressed how blacks are convicted at a much higher rate than others. Does this represent a reality? That others are simply wrongly arrested in higher numbers? No, I do not believe so.
Take Philandro Castile. Do you really believe he was the only one with a broken tail light? Or was he pulled over because of his "wide set nose"?
You're arguing points that haven't been made. The OP is countering the statement that violent crime among black people is no higher than in other groups.
Read your post - you're all over the place with this, that, and the other thing. Stick to the topic - it isn't about all of the above.
Another dumb thread on Stormfront Lite by people scared of their own shadow.
Well over 80% of whites get killed by their own and not even 1% of the AA population consists of violent criminals.
Now, it's another **** measuring contest to see who's more violent, considering Charleston, SC shooting, Sandy Hook, Aurora, CO, BLM protest in Minnesota and just two weeks ago, an act of terror committed by a white person.
Every race/ethnicity/culture has violent segments, whether it's inner city ghettos in the U.S., to third world slums in Venezuela, to getting knocked off/disappearing for sneezing at an inappropriate time like in Russia or NK.
There's no real point to this thread, but considering the source and who posted in it, no surprise.
I think the point is just to counter what someone has stated, which is false.
Again, nobody is saying crime doesn't exist among all groups.

It is. Philandro Castile was pulled over for one reason and one reason only. He was black. White's and some other minorities can get away with things that blacks can not which skews the numbers.
Is violence in Chicago among blacks too high? It is. Is drug addiction among white's in rural areas too high? It is. You do not address any of that with this racist ****.
This has to contain some of the most offensive and false generalizations I have ever had the displeasure to read.
Perhaps offensive to YOU, but it's the truth and NOT false based on many decades of firsthand observations at work, living in poorer neighborhoods when I was just out of college, stories from black co-workers about their neighborhoods (them nicknaming Mattapan "Murderpan", and watching footage/reading about riots in LA after Rodney King, the Oakland riot, and riots in recents years whenever the black community is upset.

It's not one sided. The OP links to an article making a false statement. That's the topic.

You can not condemn an entire group over the actions of some. That is what is being done here. It's what causes a Philandro Castile to get pulled over while others go on their merry way even though their tail light is busted also.

It gets old when it is you being targeted.
I don't see people condemning black people. If you want to talk about other kinds of crime that white people have high percentages of, start a new thread.
The OP is simply pointing out that the statement made to an article he linked to is false.
"He didun do nuffin. He just tryin to git money for clothes for school."
Anyone see the problem?
