Yes but there is a tendency to forcefully take it, either via government or otherwise.

Quote from Gio 2009:

You are comparing apples with oranges. The violence you cite is warfare. The violence we here are talking about with regard to black community in the west and in africa is social violence- individuals murdering individuals, drug related killings, robberies, drunken/drug induced conflicts which end in death and a 10-life prison sentence. In addition to squalor, poverty, rampant drug abuse, child neglect, chronic unemployment, STDs at 5-10x the rate of the rest of the population just to start. This violence and these conditions are very, very distinctive from warfare. As apart from warfare, the other cultures you mentioned don't share the other features. I find your take on this to be a bit reductionist.

LOL. See, that's the problem with this kind of discourse. If you dare to step outside of the sacred PC bubble, you are either ignored or attacked. These reactions are typical of people who are experiencing fear. Whereas the other person Optional, has thus far ignored me, you have chosen to attack me (i.e.: your over dramatic "i knew what you were" etc etc) instead of simply having a frank discussion.

people point out the occasional real violence in white history, and to them i say that much of the history of humanity isnt pretty, but time and time again it has been proven that no matter how many times you attempt 'jump start' the african race, the motor just wont turn over and run on it's own without help

there's certain realities there that cant be spoken or acknowledged, but nonetheless do exist. they dont go away when plans are made that ignore the realities

and time after time, the plans fail.; they always do, leaving people to look for excuses that state anything but the truth. the truth cant be stated, becasue it's considered racist. and therefor, the explanations always seem to be inadequate

then....a new plan is made and it starts all over again

deep down, at some level most of you reading this know that it's true

Quote from Mom0/pH0x:

Narcissistic personality disorder

DSM-IV divides personality disorders into three clusters based on symptom similarities.[1] This clustering categorizes the narcissistic personality disorder as a cluster B personality disorder, those personality disorders having in common an excessive sense of self importance. Also in that cluster are the borderline personality disorder, the histrionic personality disorder and the antisocial personality disorder.

A pervasive pattern of grandiosity (in fantasy or behavior), need for admiration, and lack of empathy, beginning by early adulthood and present in a variety of contexts, as indicated by five (or more) of the following:[1]

1. has a grandiose sense of self-importance
2. is preoccupied with fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance, beauty or ideal love (megalomania)
3. believes they are "special" and can only be understood by, or should associate with, people (or institutions) who are also "special" or of high status
4. requires excessive admiration
5. has a sense of entitlement
6. is interpersonally exploitative
7. lacks empathy
8. is often envious of others or believes others are envious of him or her
9. shows arrogant, haughty behaviors or attitudes

Indeed, and you'll also notice the rather punctuated decline in the standard of living which has been ironically associated with it.
