I think you should just be weary of poor desperate people in general. Because it's not black people it's poor people that are the wild ones. Just so happens that there are more black poor people than any other race. Dont let the media brainwash you guys. This is a socioeconomic issue. The same way no one cares for some of the things trailer trash does either.

I agree. My wife is from the Appalachian mountains. There are lots of poor people there. Lots and lots of poor white people.

Personally, I don't want anyone to be poor. I used to be short on finances and didn't like it so I changed my situation. I want everyone to do the same.

I think there should be an opportunity to get out being poor. Oh.. Wait there is. I was in the army with guys that had never had indoor plumbing. I was in with lots of guys raised in the inner city that wanted more. They got more and lead successful lives.

Poor is a way of life. It's about what you are willing to accept.

Yep. I remember traveling to Ireland years ago and being on foot in an area of Dublin and being uncomfortable in trying to identify if I was in a bad area or not. Everything there is pretty old and even if everyone was the same color as me, when you see young people just hanging out, you just have to assume the worst and be on your guard.
