Grocery stores in black neighborhoods just can't do business there.

[YoursTruly]

So why is that? Why do you think black people in the US act differently to others?

Could it be slavery, segregation, stopping them getting good jobs, lumping them in ghettos, having the police beat on them, low quality education?

Wait, all of that sounds like it's BEEN CONSTRUCTED TO BE LIKE THIS BY A BUNCH OF ******* RACIST ASSHOLES.

No, it couldn't be "slavery, segregation, stopping them getting good jobs, lumping them in ghettos." Thanks to the white man, those things ended 100 years ago. Long enough ago for them to become decent citizens now.
The government doesn't have a damn thing to do with whether a person is good or bad, to themselves and the community around them.

Arrests And Crime Victims By Race And Ethnicity | Crime in America.Net

5,781,000 Arrests Per the FBI

The bulk of those arrested (using rounded numbers) are Whites, 3,927,500, Blacks, 1,624,000, and Hispanics, 1,023,000.

Whites were arrested 196,000 times for crimes of violence, Blacks were arrested 134,500 times, and Hispanics 76,500.

Whites were arrested 414,500 times for property crimes, Blacks 191,000, and Hispanics 94,000

African Americans are the primary group arrested for murders, robberies, and weapons violations.

Whites lead all other categories.

Hispanics came in second for sex offenses (not rapes), gambling, and driving while intoxicated.




Of course not. But it's not just stores in black neighborhoods that have had to close due to high theft rates.

Swing and a miss.

Whites make up 60% of the population. Blacks are only about 13%.
They're almost half of what whites are in all arrest. They're just shy of being equal to whites in the violent crime stats. Almost half of property crimes. And apparently, according to your post, blacks beat whites in murders, robberies and weapons violations.

And they're only 13% of the entire population.

Bullshit. If they made themselves, then other countries would have just as many ghettos. But countries like Germany, Austria etc don't. China and Japan definitely don't.

They're often made due to bad planning, or NO PLANNING AT ALL. Which might be what you're talking about, but it sounds like you're just being racist.

Nonsense. Africa is mostly a giant ghetto. Europe has some decent blacks as does the USA. But not enough. Only so many made millionaire in sports or movies.

Destructive GOVT policy has created the USA Black problems. Big problems started in big blue cities, now fanning outward.

 

[Tumblin Tumbleweed]

Other countries aren't the USA. Blacks in those countries don't act the way they do here.

How the **** do you know? Do you live in 'other countries'?

I don't have to. The only place they act even close to the US blacks, is south Africa. Where they're publicly calling for the deaths of white people.

You think because they ended, that they didn't have an impact on today?

Look at what happened. They had slavery, but slaves needed to get jobs. What jobs did they get? Low paid jobs because the whites wouldn't give them anything else. Then Detroit opened up for cars and blacks flocked there, only to get low paid jobs and be put in areas for low paid workers.

You can pretend that all white people are nice decent people, but you'd be wrong.

Now you're down to trying to spin all this as if ancient history was yesterday. Blacks have had access to colleges for longer than I've been alive. There are many black American millionaires and upper middle class.
White folks have always taken low paying jobs too.

You're BS argument holds no water now days. 100 years ago, yes. But not anymore. There's no excuse for the way the bad black people act in society now days.

I'm not pretending anything. There are some scum of the earth white people. But unlike you, I think the bad white and blacks should be buried under the prisons.
While you feel some sort of pitty for them. You obviously do NOT support equality.

Black people in the US were treated badly, found it difficult to progress and ended up in bad situations which it is hard to get out of.

You can be all racist if you like, but I'm going to tell you THE TRUTH. As for your nonsense bullshit statement of "You obviously do NOT support equality", **** off.

I am familiar with dark neighborhoods that are safe and some that are not. It depends on the kinds of families that live there.

I don't deny that there's dysfunction in some black/brown communities. There's also some dysfunction in some white communities, too. There's more of it in black/brown communities because, historically, whites have used black/brown people to create their wealth, which involves a lot of exploitation.

There are perma ghettos. The people living in them mastering the social programs available to them It is institutionalized.

Exactly......you proved my point,

And just in case you forgot.......this conversation started with you saying that blacks do the most theft, and while that may be true in black neighborhoods, it's not true in the overall crime stats.

The industrial area slowly ended. African Americans were last hired in that realm and then first fired as the foreign industries took over.

 

[multivita-man]

You realize Colonialism ended decades ago. Why still use it as an excuse?

Centuries of colonialism ended decades ago. Okay, and?

The exploitation of global South and other resource-rich countries didn't end. It's still ongoing.

 

[multivita-man]

You’re ******* retarded.

You misspelled Yer.

How the hell did poor white people use poor blacks to get ahead?

I'm not sure poor whites so much used poor blacks to get ahead. It's probably more the case they benefitted from a system that discriminated against blacks in such a way that, as a group, ensured they never accumulated the economic and political capital that their white counterparts had.

And I’m guessing you’re all for DEI and if that’s the case the white exploiters were only hiring white people to take advantage of?

I have no problem with diversity, equity, and inclusion. I don't feel threatened by it. In fact, based on my own experience working in various organizations, DEI has been mostly aspirational. As an example, a college/university I used to work for was big into DEI and yet its faculty was still pretty predominately white.

 

[RetiredGySgt]

Japan and China don't have any significant black population. And in France and Sweden and all of Europe where they have gained any they have problems like in the US.

 

[multivita-man]

Loans today aren't rejected because of ones race. And they haven't been for a long LONG time now.

Anti-discrimination in lending has probably been enforced consistently since the late 1970s to early 1980s. The issue is that you usually need accumulated wealth to even qualify for a loan to begin with. That was even more true in the early 1980s when interest rates were a lot higher than they are now. The 1990s was probably the first time in American history that African Americans were able to make serious economic progress relative to their white counterparts, though I concede that probably depends on the metric, of which there are potentially many to go by.

Also, not getting a home loan is still no reason to rob, steal or loot. It's no reason to buy & sell drugs. Or commit any crime, really.

Never said that it was. Only pointing out that these kinds of things tend to happen with greater frequency in communities that are economically and socially distressed, which black/brown communities have been for centuries, even when they were supposedly "free".

 

[multivita-man]

Japaan and China ddont have any significant black population. And in France and Sweden and all of Europe where they have gained any they have problems like in the US.

That's because they historically don't have an economic system that depends on importing cheap human capital for the purposes of economic exploitation. They might find ways to exploit them away from their borders, though (ask the Chinese and Koreans about what Japan did to them (1910 - 1945).

 

[SeaMajor7]

Colonialism is a thing. When the richest countries exploit the poorer ones for their resources, violence and unrest are never that far behind. That's why the Middle East, Africa, and Lat-Am countries tend to be "unstable," as though they're left to their own devices.

Anyone arguing about colonialism in this 21st century is just a brainwashed retarded asshole with absolutely no critical thinking ability.
GTFOH with that BULLSHIT.

Here's an idea.....how about enforcing the LAW and hold people RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR CRIMINAL BEHAVIOR.
