Sounds like a good community service program. Get the fools like you to sink or swim in a rough neighborhood. You either become more racially sensitive very quickly or suffer the consequences. Win win for everyone. Mail gets delivered until it doesn't. I'm sure you are familiar with community service so nothing new just a different locale.
Crime in one city or any city can be pinpointed on a political party is a very simplistic view of the problem although not correct. Chicago has a long history / twisted history with gangs since the early 1900's and later romanticized by the Italian / Irish gangs in Hollywood movies. There's serious crime problems in Republican cities too if you look at the per capital. My point, crime doesn't care about political parties. Seriously, take a look at the statistics per capital of Jacksonville, Florida...a Republican run city in a Republican state. Crime is happening every where regardless to the political party and regardless to the skin of colour. https://www.firstcoastnews.com/arti...ttack/77-f2e06c8a-2b94-4133-94e4-87a37d812f4f Concentrate too much on the media's top crime cities...you'll forget you may living in one of those other high crime rate cities or living in one of those rising crime cities run by a republican / democrat that's aligned with your political beliefs and let your guard down or think someone that's your skin colour will not make you a victim of crime. Take a closer look at the last image in the below graph...the top rising crime cities... Fort Worth, Texas has the 2nd rising crime rate in America...its a Republican city that's worst than New York per capital. Fort Worth has been a Republican city the last 4 or 5 elections and its crime rate has been soaring. What happens if the next elections changes the city from Republican to Democratic...its still going to have the 2nd highest rising crime rate city in America...will it then be the Democrats fault ??? Take a look at the last image in the below screenshot...of the Top Republican run cities...only two have a declining murder rate but the overall murder rate has been rising in Republican run cities by 26%. Crime doesn't care about politics... Although some cities like Chicago has a famous history with politics and gangsters. Heck, if your skin colour is right...Hollywood will make a movie about your crimes. wrbtrader
Lets be real. Violent crime is MUCH more prevelant in black neighborhoods. Go to any poor white neighborhood thats equaly impoverished as a poor black neighborhood and you will not have anything close to the black violence. It is a cultural issue. Even during prohibition in the 1920’s you didnt have 16 year olds spraying school yards with bullets.
Why are white men carrying out more mass shootings? https://news.sky.com/story/why-are-white-men-more-likely-to-carry-out-mass-shootings-11252808 White men are responsible for more mass shootings in the US than any other race Nearly All Mass Shooters Since 1966 Have Had 4 Things in Common The largest study of mass shooters ever funded by the U.S. government reveals stunning information about perpetrators. https://www.vice.com/en_ca/article/...ers-since-1966-have-had-four-things-in-common There's a thread here at ET that blames Hip Hop music on mass shootings by White people. ---------- 5 profiles of mass shooters Experts have long cautioned that there is no single profile for a mass shooter. But the Violence Project researchers found some personal characteristics often align with certain types of locations targeted by shooters, and created five general categories:: K-12 shooters: White males, typically students or former students of the school, with a history of trauma. Most are suicidal, plan their crime extensively, and make others aware of their plans at some point before the shooting. They use multiple guns that they typically steal from a family member. College and university shooters: Non-white males who are current students of the university, are suicidal, and have a history of violence and childhood trauma. They typically use legally obtained handguns and leave behind some sort of manifesto. Workplace shooters: Forty-something males without a specific racial profile. Most are employees of their targeted location, often a blue-collar job site, and have some grievance against the workplace. They use legally purchased handguns and assault rifles. Place of worship shooters: White males in their 40s, typically motivated by hate or domestic violence that spills out into the public. Their crimes typically involve little planning. Shooters at a commercial location (such as a store or restaurant): White men in their 30s with a violent history and criminal record. They typically have no connection to the targeted location and use a single, legally obtained firearm. About a third show evidence of a “thought disorder,” a term for a mental health condition, like schizophrenia, that results in disorganized thinking, paranoia or delusions. Hate on the rise The study shows that the number of shooters who are motivated by racism, religious hate and misogyny have increased since the 1960’s — most dramatically in the last five years. ...Since 2015, hate-fuelled shootings targeting black churchgoers in Charleston, Jews at synagogues in Pittsburgh and Poway, women at a yoga studio in Tallahassee, and Latinos at a Walmart in El Paso, have dominated national headlines and added another layer of complexity to the problem of mass violence in America. Between 1966 and 2000, there were 75 mass shootings. Of those, 9% were motivated by racism, 1% by religious hatred, and 7% by misogyny. Of the 32 mass shootings that have occurred in the U.S. just since 2015, 18% were motivated by racism, 15% by religious hatred, and 21% by misogyny. The increase in ideologically-motivated mass shootings has coincided with the emergence of a newly-emboldened far-right, who’ve forged national and even international alliances of hate online. The sharp rise in misogyny-inspired shootings also squares with the rise of the “Incels,” short for “involuntarily celibate,” an online subculture comprised of angry young men who deeply resent and blame women for their isolation... wrbtrader
Apples and oranges. Add up all the victims of mass shootings you're referring to and maybe it adds up to one year of dead in Chicago. Two completely different type crimes, carried out by people with completely different motivations. You twist yourself up like a pretzel trying to deny the black on black crime and it's impact on the community. All these dead black kids in the street aren't there as the result of some crazy white guy on a rampage. Most dangerous person most black men will meet is another black man with a gun. That is an indisputable fact.
You missed the point if you seriously thought I was talking about white people shooting up black kids in the street... Read again. Simply, you know darn well I never stated nor implied nor showed any image / video of white people shooting up black kids in the street. Also, why would it bother you that most mass shootings are by White Men...not just in the U.S. but also in the entire world ? https://theconversation.com/lets-ca...ooting-what-it-is-white-male-terrorism-136938 April 23, 2020 3.04pm EDT Updated April 24, 2020 RCMP say at least 23 people are dead after a man went on a murder rampage in Nova Scotia communities While the mainstream media has been quick to situate the deadly recent events that unfolded in Nova Scotia within the context of Canadian mass murders, no one seems to be drawing attention to the most prominent link connecting Canadian mass killings: all of the accused perpetrators have been men, and most of them have been white. White men were responsible for or currently face charges for the mass murders at the École Polytechnique in 1989, Mayerthorpe in 2005, Moncton in 2014, Calgary in 2014, Québec City in 2017, Toronto in 2018 (a van attack) and Fredericton in 2019. Those in Vernon, B.C., in 1996, Edmonton in 2014, and Toronto in 2018 (the shooting in the city’s Greektown neighbourhood) were perpetrated by racialized men. Given this explicitly gendered pattern of perpetration, why don’t we talk about these mass murders as male terrorism? --------- My point, you're worried about the wrong ethnicity group if you don't live in the inner city. wrbtrader
Then why did you post in a thread which is entirely about street crime and black on black crime? What you posted in this thread, by your own admission, has nothing to do with the general content of said thread. It's a completely different topic.
There's a misconception although the thread starter may very well live in the inner city of Chicago...I don't know. Regardless, I posted in this thread because of someone else that posted in this thread that's trying to foster a misconception. Anyways, at least you now know I'm not talking about White men shooting up black kids on the street considering they're busy doing mass shootings elsewhere. wrbtrader
This sentence is racist. White men are not "busy" doing mass shootings. WTF? The shootings in Chicago EACH AND EVERY WEEKEND equal any mass shooting ever done in the USA, whether done by an Asian at a college, muslims, or Blacks with a rifle driving around in in a damn van. Enough with the stereotyping white people as the only mass shooters. I mean, really. WTF?
1) The links posted does not suggest white people as the "only" mass shooters. 2) The info posted does not compare nor equate black shootings against white shootings. 3) White men kill too and tend to be in the news more for mass shootings that correlate with the statistics by law enforcement. Its not complicated...crime is everywhere. If someone reports black crime and another poster tries to foster a misconception to go with his other prior misconceptions that "only" black people shoot children... We all know that's false and nothing to debate about although a few people believe Chicago is the only city with shootings in the street by black people. Its the reason why if you do not live in the inner city of Chicago and you're worried about black people or latino people shooting up their neighbourhoods in Chicago... You should be more worried about your own neighbourhood...the White men that fits the profile outline in the link by law enforcement involving mass shootings. Seriously, don't worry about Chicago unless you live there. Wouldn't it better more productive to talk about crime in your own city ? wrbtrader
