No white kid would be labeled a social pariah if he was bullied and didn't respond in kind. Just the opposite, they would actually feel sorry for the kid and stand up for him.
Considering this board's views on those who have been bullied, I wouldn't totally buy into that.

Or I called myself the same.

He's right, New Orleans has been fricked for a long time.
Until the corruption in leadership subsides, it will continue to be fricked.
The city politicians are extremely corrupt and it fricks up everything.
I love the city, I grew up there, but it has a lot that is wrong with it.

True. 99% may be high. Day to day residents aren't seeing more crime? Or more news reports?

They've always been there. Always seem to be polite until 4AM. Then they get pushy. That's why you get inside a bar or get your arse back to the room. But if the homeless in NOLA, which are par for course, are getting more violent, I don't know what the answer is? Driving them out in droves would have people up in arms. Both liberals and the people living where they would migrate to.

This is always true. It is also a sign when a city has utterly lost control. This shooting is one incident. A high profile (to us) guy wa killed. If shooting become common in the Garden Dist. And FQ? Then you have to question what they CAN secure?

Because the "well to do" don't accept that bull shite as being "part of their culture". They make it their problem and do something about it instead of just expecting the problem to sort itself out.

You mean they have the resources not accept it. You are ignorant if you think most people want to live in those conditions and wouldn't do something to change it if they could.

Is that why you think most people in the hood live in those conditions? When most of them are trying to find a way out.

It just happened? Old news in this day and age of media already, unless you are living it.
How is it an emotional over reaction? How do you know. Maybe he answered a question (God forbid) without coach speak or a filter. His job involves cameras being in his face.

Bad choices are why they are stuck in the hood.

It's absolutely funded by record labels and a corporate class that sees the profitability in it. Money is more important to record labels and entertainment elites than anything else. And guess what political affiliation most of these people have...they could give two shits about the effect their promotion of trash culture has on society at large and that goes well beyond just the violence and immorality of rap music. It goes for all of popular culture.

So was it a result of my "good choices" that I was born to a well-off family in a good neighborhood that values education and other values important to success?

If you stop making them, I can assure you that you will wind up somewhere other than your well-off family's good neighborhood.
Also, who said life was fair?

OK.

Not me.
Just illustrating the fact that you have no clue why or how the run of the mill person in "the hood" got there or why he or she remains. It's not always "bad choices".

Please explain.
They have had access for decades to free education from first grade through college.
Access to the same jobs and same hours while going to school.
Why are they still stuck?
quote:

I never said anyone wanted to live in those conditions. But they certainly seem to have very little desire to put in the work it takes to get out of those conditions.
quote:

Why can't they do something? What is stopping them from doing something about it?
You're ignorant if you actually believe what you just said.
quote:

Every kid wanting to be the next LeBron James or Jay Z isn't "finding a way out".
They glorify hip hop culture and immediate gratification as it pertains to materialism, all while looking down on education and personal responsibility.
Keep making excuses for them though. That mindset sure is helping...
