As a conservative, I'll passively listen to both sides present their case, knowing the truth is usually somewhere in the middle with most issues. My main concern is just avoiding becoming another statistic.
I don't think duffy KNOWS any conservatives!

" liberals will call you a racist"

As we have seen over and over " liberals will call you a racist" if you DARE say ANYTHING negative about blacks. PERIOD!!

Kinda like the kid who cried wolf too often.

And of course, the REVERSE is NEVER done!

What do you propose we do, since that is what you are saying?

Some people are saying that if Black populations in cities drop, the crime will drop. Lately, cities all over the west coast (Seattle included) have seen their own Black populations precipitously decline over the last decade. Based on the reports over the last year, the opposite is happening.

Great point, if you defund your police and encourage racial violence and refuse to enforce the law, you will get much higher crime rates as Seattle has done.

I saw a panel show hosted by a black women with 6 to 8 black men who had fathered around 60 some children with a few on the way. NONE were married to the mother.

Most have rap sheets, you DO know what that is, I hope, as long as your arm.

MOST are run by their fellow blacks who are the mayors, police commissioners ,city councilmen, teachers, school principles, etc. but it is the WHITE MAN'S fault!

"51 shot, 6 fatally, in weekend gun violence in Chicago
The previous weekend, at least 73 people had been shot, 11 fatally.
By Sun-Times Wire Jul 31, 2021"

With all this, what do you think the problem is and how can whites stop it?
Agree. And to top it off, they don’t know how to properly behave or conduct themselves in public. The way they dress with their pants sagging, their speech (Ebonics), some hairstyles, being loud, etc. It is a turnoff to the rest of society and perpetuates negative stereotypes. That is where the lack of formative parenting becomes obvious.

But who (which demographic) is committing the crime in these cities, even with the drop in black population?

I'm a young Black man(See my profile pic). A lot of young Black men under the age of 35 are trash, although some like myself are great people. Young Hispanic men aren't much better either.

I have no problem admitting that either. It's easier to acknowledge an uncomfortable truth than live in an illusion. Most "anti-Blackness" is driven by bad experiences with the negative elements of the Black community.

Most people don't have a problem with Blacks and Hispanics that are productive, law abiding citizens. Just the ones who contribute to negative scenarios and impacts like the guy in the video. I'm doing my part running a tutoring business on the side with another non-stereotypical Black man from New York to ensure that more Black kids don't grow up to be degenerate trash like so many.

I think we all know the answer. It's been discussed ad nauseam, for decades. There are reams of research, dating back to 1900. However, this is the point I was making. If the Black population in these cities has taken a drop, but crime among some Black criminals is on the rise, then perhaps it's about WHO within the Black population is leaving and who is staying, and why. And does gentrification really work as well as some people think?
