Opinion I've been saying it starts at home.

Sure what about them? What do you want to compare?

If you can't figure that out then there's no need to go back and forth.

us mexicans dont blame other people for our problems. if some mexican guy robs a place and gets shot by the police, we blame him. You will never see us riot and blame white people. We just want to work just like everyone else. You dont see vietnamese people do the same either. Or ANYONE else. Only black people will see this video and blame the government.. or white people for these kids behaving this way.

Why do you think that is?

Let's look at unemployment rates shall we?

So basically you’re saying that immigrants have a higher unemployment rate than white caucasian or the average?

I mean, if you want to compare 5 or 6 populations at once, pretty dumb. To answer your question, personal decisions on some level, but African americans are more likely to be judged harshly in interviews, they are less likely to receive the same offers as other races, since they are more heavily punished by the criminal justice system, they are more likely to be unable to work certain jobs or have a felony conviction that turns off employers, more likely to live in areas with less opportunity due to reclining and government policy, etc. There is ample research on this matter available but it requires more critical thinking than you've been willing to invest in for this thread.

I'm interested in actual solutions, not some wishy washy magical hypotheticals with no practical implementations.

Yes, discipline, values, and morals are definitely "wishy washy". Great analysis.

You just seem to want to throw taxpayers' dollars at the problem. You need to know that it doesn't cost money to be good.

That's a hell of a cop out! So because they broke the laws and the laws were enforced you're blaming the system?
Don't worry bruh we took cops and live PD off the air. Better now?

Like I said, you clearly do not have the critical thinking ability here. Do you think drug laws were enforced race neutrally historically? Yes or no?

Sorry "I don't have the critical thinking skills" to respond to you. Keep making excuses.

Lol ok keep taking Ls in your thread because it makes you feel safer about your simplistic worldview, despite, again, the abundance of peer reviewed and rigorous research on these matters.

Keep on trying to name call while thinking you're having a civil discussion.

Meanwhile, make more excuses.

Why yes, which is why you refused to answer the simple question of, do you think drug policies were policed and enforced in a race neutral manner?

Great to see other hermanos here preaching truth.
That video is absolutely disgusting and reflects piss poor parenting or lack of parenting. I grew up poor AF and in a violent environment. Blaming others for abhorrent behavior is indicative of those with shit values

Oh are you trying again? This time without the name calling?

Sure back in the day this happened. The simple fix would have been to stay away from selling drugs and use. But I know, that's too hard.

These days? Everyone has a camera and black Americans are being allowed to get away with crime. Shoot we had a black kid shoot up a school and get bail. Is that happening to any other race? So excuse employers if they see this kind of behavior and say no thanks if you have a criminal record.

Expand social programs / after school programs
Raise minimum wage
Paid parental leave
Ease of access to childcare
Getting rid of red lining


Or the GOP solution:

Thoughts and prayers
Blame unrelated shit

While I agree that GOP “solutions” are a failure, I also have to acknowledge that one major city after another, ruled by liberal Democrats, has not made much of an impact on socioeconomic problems.
Raising taxes is a curse to anyone running for office, but the key lies there.

So despite Marijuana usage being comparable among races, you're saying African Americans are to blame for being more punished by the justice system for poessesion or use? And by back in the day you mean still happening or at best within the past decade?

Let me ask you this, what systemic evidence (aka non anecdotal) do you have that African americans are less policed than other races these days?

 

[skold]

Yeah "just be better guys" is not a realistic solution. Are you a child?

I just told you, DAs like gascon in LA are letting selective races out of jail. You can look it up yourself. He's now being recalled because of this.
