Lack of access to jobs? Who's going to open up a business in a crime addled area?
Lack of access to education? Bullshit. The access to education is there for anybody that wishes to take advantage of it.
A systematic effort made to destroy black neighborhoods? Examples, please, and don't waste my time with the line about crack being introduced to them. Nobody is forcing anybody to smoke that poison.
At what point does personal responsibility take hold?
Shit on black people day i guess
No, just the murderous ones.Shit on black people day i guess
Not you bro but other people around here love to shit on black people time to time. Blacks, muslims, jews, lgbtq, etc. Not all people thoNo, just the murderous ones.
No, just the murderous ones.
You're getting butthurt and shouting racism in a thread about two murderers. I take that as defending them.Yet nobody is defending the murderous ones. I've actually never seen someone defend a murderer on these forums unless they were a cop.
I personally don't give a shit about any of that or the rest of the laundry list of excuses and blaming the present on the past. Keep doing what you all are doing, it's literally nothing to me. Every other group can somehow manage. All the excuses in the world amount to jack shit, at the end of the day one group is at the bottom of every metric, except crime, but be my guest and continue with the same old excuses and overall approach to the problem, it's working marvelously.If you're going to pretend that prior to this generation there wasn't systematic racism at all levels of society I'm not going to bother with you. I'm not sourcing that the sky is blue and grass is green.
You deny that they were discriminated against for jobs, housing, education, etc until very recently? That white collar drugs had a slap on a wrist as a penalty for possession, but cheap street drugs had harsh mandatory minimum sentences? That effort wasn't put into funneling black people into their own segregated neighborhoods and denying upward mobility? That this wasn't the case from the foundation of the country up until a couple decades ago?
If this is really what you're saying then go read a history book. If you're saying those things DID happen but since they stopped all of the negative effects should have been instantly reversed, well that's silly and unrealistic as well.
Again nobody is saying personal accountability doesn't matter or that 2016 America is 1960's America, but acting as if many generations of systemic racism don't effect the community in the present is silly.
people with face tattoos arent known for making good decisions
i for one cannot stand when women scream the same thing over and over and over. i had to mute the video "GET OUT THE CAR! GET OUT THE CAR THO! GET OUT THE CAR THO!" as if the 50th time will make the girl pull over

It's both a cultural AND an economic problem.
face & neck tattoos
Nobody has said all black people are criminals ITT.Well the approach of hating them and expecting them to fix the problem entirely on their own, when they didn't create the problem on their own, is certainly working.
Let's keep being pissed off that people brought up in a shitty environment end up being shitty people. It has nothing to do with making excuses, if you had any grasp of psychology or sociology you'd understand that.
And don't group me with them. I'm not a criminal. That's the entire fucking point. Saying "you people" to refer to black crime in specific communities is stupid. It's NOT all black people, and it's NOT a "black problem". It's a socioeconomic problem.
You have poor blacks who act like this AND rich blacks who act like this, money isn't the issue. It's how these are raised and the mindset they grow up with. Single Mother Syndrome

It is a black problem, though.
Poverty doesn't cause 6% of the population to rape,assault and murder like it's going out of style tomorrow, give me a break. If that were the case, we'd see the FBI crimes stats flipped.
6% of the population is responsible for 50% of murders. That's a problem.
There are plenty of black people raised in middle class homes that go on to become educated professionals, but nobody wants to talk about them.
Not you bro but other people around here love to shit on black people time to time. Blacks, muslims, jews, lgbtq, etc. Not all people tho
And those people usually get shit on by people in their own community for not meet their 'black' standards. For every Snoop Dogg, there is a Larry Elder, Alfonzo Rachel, or Ben Carson and they are viewed too favorably by most in the black community. Whoever tries to enlighten black people about positive life goals and standards gets look down upon by those same people. It's a cultural problem.
