Hmm, @HockeyBjj is less like Fedor and more like that super warrior from Ace Ventura 2 that gets carried around in a backpack.

This like cap is cramping my style. That reference and the "vertically adorable" are both quality posts imo.

BTW, what's the deal with the dubs?

Yup. Saw him 4x.

I made some spicy satire that wasn't well received.

I wonder to what extent "black on black crime" occurs in historically redlined communities. I think if it could be shown that they account for disproportionate amounts of the national crime rate that would be a pretty direct line between historic systemic racism and one of the key problems of the modern black community.

Yeah, I'm sure all those gang members are gang members, because of systemic racism...

It's not a black or white thing. It's a greed thing. All races have these issues. There's a link to poverty, but racism? Nah. The only color responsible for all this, is green.

I doubt your average gang banger even knows what redlining is but that doesn't mean it it hasn't had a lasting effect on their communities.

LOL, wut?

Here's what they(and other criminals) understand. Robbing people and selling drugs, pays off faster than earning an honest living, but it comes with a risk. It's not complicated.

 

[Social Distance Warrior]

Is @Prokofievian the smallish but super ripped one?

or is that @Tycho Brah?

@HockeyBjj is short and stocky I’m pretty sure.

Conversely @Social Distance Warrior is a lanklet with top notch cardio and pull-up skills.

Had a great workout. I let my hatred for leftist scum motivate me in knocking out a couple additional reps.

Might take up muay Thai....this year assuming gyms reopen

Uh okay but that has precious little to do with my original point about the potential connection between redlined communities and crime.

It has everything to do with it, because you're ignoring the obvious, and trying to come up with some specific excuse for a certain race.

White gangs kill whites. Mexican gangs kill Mexicans. Blacks gangs kill blacks. However, only when it's black on black crime, are you looking for some excuse, other than the obvious.

It's greed. Always was. Always ever will be.

@PolishHeadlock2 have you watched the docuseries on Netflix about your boy Patton Oswald’s wife’s serial killer investigation?

Yeah and if systemic racism leads to poverty what happens?

Is that different than the HBO series?

I haven't seen either but I'll probably check them out in the near future. My wife loves True Crime sruff.

Poverty leads to poverty. Tell the swarms of trailer park trash/privileged white people that their troubles are due to "systemic racism".

Or I'm wondering about the potential connection between a specific set of racist practices that had an effect on the material conditions of black communities and the current crime rates in those communities relative to other communities. You can do that without "excusing" anything. Well, maybe not you in particular it seems but in general people can do that.

Ok good talk.
