East St. Louis has been a powder keg from day one.

There were only four homicides in the Oslo region (over 900k people) in 2019. That is 0.44 per 100,000 people.

Ya, those places are not populated by the violent black race.
Here in the USA, Black Americans are responsible for 53% of ALL murders, 69% of ALL violent crime, & 72% of ALL burglary, robbery, theft.

But it is Racist to point that out.

Those are some crazy numbers coming from a group comprising only 13% of the total US population. Maybe crossing the street is not such a bad idea.

Happened to me when I mentioned just some of the same facts. It was considered racist. So a temporary ban.

Real funding to programs that educate them, help them get away from a life of crime, and get out of their lower class conditions, get OFF the drugs, would be needed here, but mostly we just give them handouts and welfare but don't do any of these things... we live in a society where the government wants to... reward irresponsible behavior with handouts! Keep giving people fish when they can't catch anything themselves, and they become more lazy and entitled over time, and often turn to a life of crime in the process. Society eventually collapses because you can't run a society like this.

Even if we gave them the tools to escape their situation, many of them do not want too... they have no work ethic and can't hold a job without consistently calling in sick. My solution would be to end the welfare dole and only give them money for bettering themselves... holding jobs without calling in sick every other day or showing up late, and learning life skills they can use to grow themselves and society. I believe they call this "welfare to work." ... and no more signature bond for crimes... we are too soft on crime and many of these homicides are committed by people with a long history by a system that lets them out too early without rehabilitation, which in my opinion would be something like military boot camp or something where you can reprogram their unhealthy habits into healthy habits.

All of us are run by habits and they can be changed with time and repetition... oh but meh feewings! I don't "feel" like doing this and that... I want to be me, I want to be lazy.. I want to deal drugs because it's easier and pays better! Too bad. We are too soft on people and as someone interested in psychology you can adapt someone with new habits in 60 days and they will thank you for it after day 60 even though they are moaning on day one. Solving this problem is a matter of getting new habits and behaviors in these people and the hardest part is the first month... rather than enabling bad habits which is what we increasingly do today.

I don't know if the revolving door prison system does enough to rehabilitate non violent criminals I will be honest.
they don't want to solve the problem....they want the rest of us to accept it as their culture

I've brought up Black on Black crime before. I made a thread about it. https://www.city-data.com/forum/poli...-violence.html


And Black on Black crime gets mentioned more than you think. WDEF12 in Chattanooga did a part one and two about it.

OP should make a trip to East St. Louis and investigate if he is so concerned. Then he can report back to the forum and let us know his findings. He should have done that the last time he brought it up and we would now be informed by his research. Better yet, go to Norway.

These are crocodile tears. A diversionary thread.
We have 300,000 dead from a virus due to negligence and failure to accept and acknowledge the threat.
