If you listened only to the media, you would think police brutality is a problem only black people have to face.lynchburgwildcats wrote:More unarmed white people are shot by cops every year than unarmed black peopleWhat's your point?

RubberMallet wrote:sorry honkeys. we really have it easy.I agree we need to do something about subsidies. When children see parents not working and the government taking care of them, that sends the wrong message. Just ask anyone currently working in public service, whether it be Social Security disability, welfare/food stamps, public housing assistance, etc...
why are blacks incarcerated more than any other race while only being like 10% of the population? do we really think that they are breaking the law at such a larger rate than we are? its just not possible. you could make a case for complete irradication. studies have shown how much less likely blacks are all over the country at getting favorable judgements. most african americans are given free terrible counsel. there is so much information as too why there are such huge disparities.
The black community has to do a lot of work no doubt but the gvt has to change from fascilitating hopelessness in the name of subsidies and actually exact change together with people in those communities. something the right has doen a woefully poor job of politically. Privately, we don't need to talk about the amazing work Christian communities do to help. which is great but is still substandard. reality is that’s not enough. when only 3-4 % of the "christian" population even tithes, and then that avg tithe is only 3% of their income, we wonder why we require gvt intervention.

Of course that plays a part but I think focusing solely on race take attention away from the real problem and that is how to we give those who don't have the kind of opportunity middle class people have opportunity to succeed without simply giving hand outs. I am not nearly smart enough to come up with all the solution but all this focus on race and race along is doing this problem in Baltimore and in our country a serious disservice.it makes sense to come together as one big happy family and sing "we are the world" but unfortunately the science doesn't play out. there very much are different biological differences from a race standpoint and just stamping that out and trying to force diversification down throats is falling on its face. because with race comes culture and its a culture thing that needs worked out.

Race us obviously part of the issue and should not be ignored. It just shouldn't be the only problem we focus on.
