Does Inequality Result In Violence?

[LoneLaugher]

A quick look at some stats shows that while many nations have significant gun ownership, only the ones with significant income inequality seem to have significant problems with gun violence.

Really? LOL You do not see shooters in 200k+ neighborhoods(except Zimmerman hehe). You see them in the slums. This gets posted all the time here

It's called poverty, not inequality. Inequality is a misnomer.

And most of the poverty is because of the 70% of single-parent households having kids out of wedlock.

From what I could see the problem is mental illness. Drugs. Alcohol. A lack of respect or accountability.

No, ignorance is the cause of violence.

We would have a significant drop in population. I am all for it either way. If they got out of the slums(and not thrown off a cliff), they would get a job, have a descent house and ideology and be a contributor to society. AAAAAAAHHHHHHHH but only in a perfect world..

Perfection is not possible unless you are Sofia Vergera na, it is a good goal, its getting there that is the problem. It is too contraversal.

I started to watch it, then I saw it was just some asshole trying to convince us the main trait of gun murderers in America was not being born out of wedlock.

Gun murderers = born out of wedlock

Agreed - and the broader issue is the Absence of Fathers. The destruction of the nuclear family (arguably the most successful social construct to raise healthy children into becoming responsible adults) is at the root of many our social ills. Sadly, much of the Big Government agenda has been to destroy the family and make individual dependent upon the state.

The Elephant in the Living Room

Though both sides in this dispute have something sensible to say, they’ve missed an elephant in the room either because of willful blindness to anything politically incorrect or because of a lack of real-world experience. I speak of the problems associated with divorce, family breakup, father absence, and the enormous burdens placed on a single mom who must rear a troubled male child alone.

Adam Lanza was not normal. He suffered from morbid shyness and an inability to connect with his student peers and anyone else—a cold, withdrawn, hollow shell of a person to his classmates, an Asperger's patient to professional psychologists. Even under the best of circumstances—with a loving, caring, two-parent family consisting of a husband and wife who complemented each other’s strengths and worked together as a team—raising someone like Adam Lanza would be a real challenge.

One can't say how he might have turned out under different circumstances, but statistics show that having divorced parents, as Lanza did, plus a father who moves out of the household, remarries, and has little contact with his son for long stretches of time, is not the ideal formula for successful childrearing. Yet what sociologists call “family structure issues” were rarely discussed in the media, not even on conservative talk radio where one might have expected them to have a preeminent place. Most Americans, it seems, have so many divorced or single-parent neighbors, friends, and relatives (if they are not themselves divorced or living as single parents) that discussing family structure is simply too painful and too sensitive to be taken up in any honest or candid manner....

A good cause for violence is stupidity.

Next stupid liberal that says the rich don't pay their fair share yet gets their ass kicked.

 

[SniperFire]

So there you have it, Liberals.

Shall we stop paying women to have more children out of wedlock?
