If black-on-black crime is not a thing then why is there a Stop The Violence movement?
Without doing an in-depth research into its history, as I understand it, the movement was begun because of the violence being committed among rappers and hip-hop stars and their associated gangs. I mean, what other music genre has rivals killing each other in the streets? Is this not a symptom of a larger problem in the black community?
Other blacks, and even black music artists, recognize the problem even if the guy in the video and IM2 do not.
Who told you that crime wasnt a thing among any racial group?
If there is more white-on-white crime than black-on-black crime then it is solely due to sheer numbers. Proportionately speaking, black-on-black crime should be half what it is.
People tend to commit crimes against people they are around. You got it all wrong as usual white person. Stop the violence is in direct reference to the drug gangs Blacks formed emulating whites.
Don't try putting this one in the white man's lap. If nothing else, it only proves that blacks are just as prone to violence and criminal behavior as whites.
Rappers just made it a cause to speak out against because it was self destruction. They even made a number of rap songs about it.
"Self Destruction", otherwise known as "black-on-black crime".
I only did a few minutes of research this morning on it and so I know it was started by a rapper to combat violence among rappers and hip-hip artists. But where did the violence stem from? That's right, gang warfare. So gang warfare was already a problem and so it naturally spilled over into the rap and hip-hop world, given that so many of the early artists were gang bangers themselves.
I also discovered that the movement has gone beyond the rap and hip-hop world to combat gang warfare itself. I believe a black boy of about 15 was killed recently in Chicago by a stray bullet as he was preparing to attend a Stop The Violence rally.
One last observation: White-on-white crime is spread out over the entire country and the motives and victims are varied. Whereas black-on-black crime takes place in isolated pockets in various cities and the motives are almost all the same: Gangs and drugs.
