The black community is its own worst enemy. They keep voting for the same party, people and keep each other down generation after generation with nothing to show for.

It is sad blacks are behind even people who come to this country with no roots, often with poor language skills, sometimes with questionable legal status and often with nothing but the shirts on their backs. But all that most people need in America is an opportunity--the same opportunity that every black person gets by virtue of being born here.
Nor will the other minorities take it for long. Trump, despite the rhetoric, did better with minorites than McCain or Romney. He set back the trend from the "red tide" elections a bit, where Republicand did well with Asians and Hispanics in key areas, but even he could not reverse the trend. They are coming around to leaving the plantation party--all except blacks.
I love my black brothers and sisters, but sometimes love has to be tough love. When white guilt is gone, the old ways of racial shakedowns, excessive claims of oppression, and the constant rationalization of bad behavior based on events of 150 years ago will be gone forever. And how will that white guilt be sustained when the country becomes majority-minority, most of those minorites are mixed white, and the whites that are left are voting massively republican? Like Hillary's delusional "blue wall," the minority voting block is a wall with massive cracks in in. When if breaks, never mind "black lives matter," they will be held accountable for the fact that their 13% of the population commits 35% of the crime.

They do it because of the socialism of the Democrat party and the lies they believe about the Republican party being racist.
Police are a relatively modern invention. The world was less chaotic before the invention of police. What then is the real purpose of police? What are the social conditions that make them necessary? What would happen if they didn't exist? What would you do? Where would you go? Where would you be living a year from now without the police?
There is nothing wrong with self-interest. I don't know why you want to fight with me. Your whole attitude reminds me of this video.
Everyone votes their interests, but that doesn't mean my interests can't be the interests of society. Corporations donate to all kinds of charities that offer community support, protection of the environment, scholarship programs, etc. But every corporation is purely driven by self-interests/profit.
Milton Friedman again explains the dynamic in this video where he quotes Adam Smith.
What you need to understand is that greed alone won't get you what you want. To get what you want you have to convince other people to give it to you. Basically, to get what you want, you have to convince me to support a policy that benefits you. But why would I support a policy that benefits you? I wouldn't. Which is why you don't tell me the policy benefits you. You tell me the policy benefits me.
The people ranting about society and advocating for socialism are the most selfish people of all.
If someone mentions society, prepare to give your wallet. If someone tells you that you're an American, prepare to give your life. No one talks like that unless they want something from you. That's the socially-acceptable way of being greedy.
I scarcely know where to begin.
I could be ok without police, as long as I can shoot and kill anyone who threatens me. Do you really want to trust my judgement over the laws that we live by? I do trust my judgement, but I might not trust the guy next door.
Our system’s success is based on self interest. Self interest is good. You vote for what’s best for your family. Then, you vote for what’s best for your neighbor. Then you take care of your city, then your state. When you do this, the country takes care of itself.
It is not my job to care about other states…those residents vote for what is best for themselves.
All decent people, regardless of skin color, should be advocating the good and condemning the bad.
As a "white" person, if I see a "white" person breaking the law and being a scumbag, I say lock the POS up and throw away the key. Seems that sentiment is not shared by many on the other end of the color spectrum. Why would ANYONE advocate scumbags, regardless of skin color? I don't care what your skin color is, if you are a decent person, you're a decent person; if you are vermin, you're a vermin. Period.
