Well, first of all this doesn't apply to the many fine law abiding productive black people. The blacks who are clamoring for reparations and what not really just want everything the whites have but without having to put forth the effort to get it.

Just like the farm issue in different parts of Africa. They chase out the white farmers then face famine...because they didn't REALLY want to be farmers...they just wanted the product of the farmers work.

No different than modern ghettos in the US. Every one of those ghettos at one time was a nice middle class neighborhood. The ghetto rats took over and destroyed their own neighborhoods then cry about not having what whites have.

I need to clarify, it's not just the blacks and black vs white here, it's low class vs middle class of all races. The thing is most other races disown their low class brethren and a majority of blacks stand in solidarity with their trashier counterparts.

I recommend you compare the proportion of killers who are black (about half) to the proportion of killers receiving the death penalty who are black (about one third), and then rethink your conclusion.

You can't say that about every single person.

Ultimately you have to deal with each individual.

It's easy to reside in large stereotypes. It's more difficult to deal with each person.

If you really believe that, then your mentality is really screwed up.

The black people in poverty, the majority, would disagree with you.

But if there are 2 parents in the house, the odds decrease that the child will grow up to be a criminal. Without that parenting, it’s a lost hope. No amount of looting, marching, praying, kneeling, policing, or legislation can replace parenting.
Well stated!

The reason they are in poverty is because they have come to expect the government to take care of them.

99% is economics. When the auto plants were employing the blacks the neighborhoods became middle class. Once they shut them down -unemployment came along. . Because neighborhoods were sectioned off and separated from the rest - it created a cesspool of stagnation and crime. The drugs came to poor neighborhoods as an easy way to make a dollar - it’s been horrible ever since. That created a culture where there’s little hope. The section 8 housing has been to me the worse thing that ever happened. Those who get vouchers and get housing in different parts of the city do so much better. Pooling the Poor together just creates the same mentality.
America has a substance abuse problem and until we address that, we are going in circles. We need to deal with our addiction. That fuels 90% of the crime. And guess who are the majority of the addicted ???
