That's what the quote from my first post is related to.

"All sociologists have suffered from the same basic problem: finding urban white communities that are as disadvantaged as the poorest black neighbourhoods, so that you can get a fair comparison."

But 85% of white people that are killed in America each year are murdered by other white people. Yet we never hear the term white on white crime on mainstream media. Black on black crime is a term that’s been coined specifically for black people to create feelings of self hatred and disunity within our race. It’s a tactic of divide and conquer.

White people aren't shrieking and taking to the streets.

No, it's simply a matter of black on black crimes being committed at a very high rate compared with any other pattern. The only pattern which can rival it is black on non-black crime.

And what caused that? And then what caused that? And then what caused that? Etc.

There is a reason for everything. If this was a real problem, it would already have been fixed.


Europe is intentionally importing millions of people with the same kinds of problems, why?


There must actually be a benefit. And I'm not talking about some political party exploiting them for votes, but rather, it must be economically-beneficial. Because nothing else matters.

Red Lining was Democrat FDR's idea!!!

1937 HOLC would "red line" areas that already had significantly higher rates of mortgage foreclosure so that banks would take less risk there by requiring more so as to not get in a pickle later as we dealt with the banking crisis.

It happened that the great depression hit blacks harder, which was a contributing factor into their areas being more likely to be foreclosed.

Are you going to play the silly political-party blame game? You're better than that.


The bankers are scumbags, certainly, but bankers will make money any way they can get it.


On the one hand you have blacks crying about redlining. Where banks supposedly conspired to suppress housing prices in the black community by not offering loans. And on the other hand you have blacks crying because gentrification is driving up houses in historically-black communities to such an extent that blacks can no longer afford to live there.


This is a stupid fight, because it isn't the right fight. It completely ignores the real cause of crime, and perpetually sidetracks us into these petty circular arguments.


What people seem incapable of seeing, is that it is the cities themselves which are the poison. People seem to want to hack at the branches, while ignoring the root.


"Those who labor in the earth are the chosen people of God, if ever he had a chosen people, whose breasts he has made his peculiar deposit for substantial and genuine virtue. It is the focus in which he keeps alive that sacred fire, which otherwise might escape from the face of the earth. Corruption of morals in the mass of cultivators is a phenomenon of which no age nor nation has furnished an example. It is the mark set on those, who not looking up to heaven, to their own soil and industry, as does the husbandman, for their subsistence, depend for it on the casualties and caprice of customers. Dependence begets subservience and venality, suffocates the germ of virtue, and prepares fit tools for the designs of ambition. This, the natural progress and consequence of the arts, has sometimes perhaps been retarded by accidental circumstances: but, generally speaking, the proportion which the aggregate of the other classes of citizens bears in any state to that of its husbandmen, is the proportion of its unsound to its healthy parts, and is a good-enough barometer whereby to measure its degree of corruption." - Thomas Jefferson

That's because the murder RATE.


14% of the population.... over 50% of the murders, most of them other black men.


THAT'S the point of "black on black" crime being an issue. It isn't an issue that theyr'e mostly killing black people, and they should diversify their victims!



Want to know what's REAL division? Drilling into people of color's heads that they are perpetual victims of white people. That they are being HUNTED in the streets of America by white people and cops.

THAT'S division. And it's false. Especially comparing the inter-racial crime and hate crime statistics. But, facts don't always support narrative, so we're stuck with people on the internet saying **** like, "black on black crime has been coined as a tactic of divide and conquer."

Oh yeah? Did the annual white people's "perpetuating supremacy and privilege in a diviersifying world" conference agenda leak onto the internet for you to be able to drop this truth bomb on us??

Black kids in some areas grow up thinking that using drugs and guns is the normal way to live. They see their older siblings, parents and grandparents living that way. The only way to change anything, is to change the culture. As long as they have the "poor me" attitude, it won't change.
