My intentions for this post was to make people think before they pass judgements amongst another person. Many people automatically use a person's race as a scapegoat. The reason I came up with the "Black on black" post was because of previous posts I had seen from other people. I've seen comments that say, "Why can't the media focus on the hundreds of black people who are getting killed by other black people each year?" So, I was trying to come across as naive and ask a question. Of course there are several factors that have to do with violent behavor. My apologies if I offended anyone.

The crime rate among African born blacks is low while American born blacks is high. African born blacks have the same DNA as American blacks and are even blacker, having very little to no European or Native American DNA. So, if it was a casual thing, African blacks would be just as bad as black Americans if not worse.
Blacks have this criminal, ghetto subculture they celebrate and embrace as being the authentic black American culture. The result are the issues you see in many black Americans. Good news is cultures do change over time. Once upon a time Boston was the most conservative, puritan place in America...not so any longer.
-Poverty which leads to drug dealing and robbery
-Bad parenting/single parent household with no father
-Lack of education
Yeah, but other racial groups face this and it doesn't turn into this.
Lack of education? Are you kidding me? A large portion of America, regardless of race, seems to be uneducated.
Bad parenting/single parent household? Seen this in other races. Sure, I definitely think it contributes, but not to the point where you are killing another person.
Poverty-- Isn't this American government trying to combat this by specific programs such as welfare? Poverty is also widespread, not necessarily racially targeted. YET, poverty does have more of a correlation to African Americans based on the American history. Such as not accumulating wealth like other groups. based on past housing laws. So, yes this could contribute.
So now that the trial is over the forum returns to its nonstop obsession with black people.
How many black on black crimes are gonna pop up tonight? You really wanna talk about it...find an organization in your local area that focuses on addressing this issue.
Because it goes against the liberal narrative the media is projecting.
