Your use of quotation marks indicates that you are one of those who derives some benefit from creating a separatist mentality.

Well, not eough is done.
There are 2 distinct problems that MUST be addressed in the black community if the blacks will ever "solve" this problem.

1. More fathers need to take active roles in their children's lives.

2. Blacks need to quit feeling oppressed, talk about feeling oppressed, rallying about being oppressed.Why do some whites object to some blacks? Trust. Bottom line, trust. How do you gain trust? Stop the crime.

See, it all comes full circle here.

Marching is such a waste of time. Just an attention-whoring way of saying you care about an issue without, you know, actually doing anything about it.

The good thing is the majority of these crimes are confined to certain, defined neighborhoods. I've never felt unsafe in the slightest in my neighborhood.


Yep, I love the Chicago I visit every summer and will continue to the rest of my life. When I have a friend come visit me in Baton Rouge I don't take them to Mohican and Wyandotte to go out.

I'm guessing that no one saw anything either.

Of the links provided, which one shows anyone proclaiming to be from the BLM movement?

I'll wait.

We cannot demand this, there are citizens who survived segregation living in these communities. How mad would you be if your grandparents had been mistreated? However, there is nothing positive resulting from stirring this anger.

Normally, I would agree, but they are marching in gang-infested neighborhoods. They have to make their unity known.

More abortions would probably have a positive impact on black neighborhoods TBH

I understand the sentiment and economics behind that, but it continues to teach women and men that there aren't consequences for their actions and it doesn't help build the urban family.

It's possible. Still, they abort 501 black babies every 1,000 births. Think about that. If I'm a black person, what is killing off more black people than anything else? That number just astounds me.

My point is it's not white people killing off black people.

Those links aren't good enough to present a case. Black on black crime is the plague of the black community. Yet, correcting that department has yielded the least results. The state of affairs in urban black communities isn't flourishing and is downright one of the deadliest environments in the world.

These urban communities are the runways for the majority of the black population and these neighborhoods tip the scale towards the negative side in a heavy fashion. If the value of life is the most sacred thing in our existence, it's taken the least serious in those cummunties. Body count,body count, body count, makes the last sentence true. Unfortunate, hard to swallow but very true. God bless...

And the gang bangers laugh, wait for the show to be over and go right back to gang banging. That is, if they're not actively participating in the marching.

So making it difficult to get an abortion so they have more unwanted kids is your way of trying to teach them a lesson in responsibility. That's fricking crazy talk fwiw. And the evangelical staunch view of abortion is why republicans are going to lose yet another national election in November. Frick

Nope. Race baiters will blame them anyway.
