1) Only had one black kid in my 1500 kid HS but. I was born on the Under Ground Railroad, visited my uncle when he was integrating a factory in the south and sleeping with a gun under his pillow, had a buddy from the ghetto. Rode my bike past a race riot. That shit has been on my radar for 60 years so I know a racist talk when I hear it. WTF do you KNOW?
2) Like I told a kid once "If I liked rap, you wouldn't. It's how the world works." Anti war music was the downfall of the country in my youth. I still love it. Dirty Fuckng Hippies!!!! Anarchists!!! Terrorist Bombers!!!!
3) Black, White, Latino, Italian, Irish, Asian. Ghettoes are the common equalizer that give rise to violence. You're welcome.A few people feel the rain. Most people just get wet.

Social factors predict violence much better than race:
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC144915
"We analyzed key individual, family, and neighborhood factors to assess competing hypotheses regarding racial/ethnic gaps in perpetrating violence. From 1995 to 2002, we collected 3 waves of data on 2974 participants aged 18 to 25 years living in 180 Chicago neighborhoods, augmented by a separate community survey of 8782 Chicago residents.
The odds of perpetrating violence were 85% higher for Blacks compared with Whites, whereas Latino-perpetrated violence was 10% lower. Yet the majority of the Black–White gap (over 60%) and the entire Latino–White gap were explained primarily by the marital status of parents, immigrant generation, and dimensions of neighborhood social context. The results imply that generic interventions to improve neighborhood conditions and support families may reduce racial gaps in violence."
This study indicates that immigrants are much less likely to commit violent acts.Last edited by I've seen black diamonds!; 11-10-2017 at 09:36 AM.

Booya we are both not racist.
A problem with continually trotting out the black crime rate in the usa is that the same people that resist talking about assault weapons bans stand in the way of reforming inner cities. PNW people may not have loads of black friends, but it's nada to do with their interest in reducing both mass shooting instances and gang violence.
MS-13 is problematic where I grew up, but it's localized enough to be drowned out in national stats.
From my perspective, being told you're a no-good n-word all your life has a tendency to make people desperate. Those communities face a lot of aggressive policing where citizens are continually denied basic rights. After a few years of suffering from state sanctioned violence, it's incredibly tough to escape the degenerative spiral of illicit work governed by the threat of lethal force. When you're blacklisted from the normal world, 'the game' looks almost appealing.

apparently the locking of the thread (which is surprisingly easy to do without any confirmation in the UI) was accidental. the masses complained, the root cause was investigated and determined, and the mistake was undone. it's not the end of the world yet.
