We just disagree on the root cause. I think it's poverty, you think it's race/culture.
both groups have money. NBA Youngboy has A LOT of money. he's probably making over a million a month sitting in jail and they're still slangin' iron all over the city.
jacksonville has a very similar situation going on. atlanta too.

So this goes back to my primary point.. If we can agree that people of any color can fall into the multi-generational cycle of poverty, drugs, crime, and other poor decisions that result from negative influences, what is the purpose of spending the time to highlight the correlation with a specific color of people rather than the correlation with poverty?
Trashy white people are, on average, far less violent.

Poverty doesn't make you a shithead.
Your values and culture do.

yeah, the bottom isn't really a place you have to worry about driving through. not a lot robberies on randos and whatnot.
i wouldn't feel as comfortable driving around ghost town, mall city, zion city, etc

I wouldn’t go that far. Trashy white people are a different kind of violent. Trashy white folk are much more apt to do the whole domestic violence thing. They are violent, just not drive by gang banger shite, for the most part.

sooooooooooo you ever gonna give your reasoning for why each subsequent generation performs worse as they become Americanized or you gonna continue to beat around the bush with nonanswers?

People are more likely to live with that since it isn’t as “random” though.

I wouldn't want to drive all the way down North Acadian during the daytime, particularly if we are talking about getting off on some of the side streets.

The same could be said about any demographic information.
Why is the truth such a scary thing to progressives?

Sounds to me like you are saying there is a distinct culture at fault. Hm. imagine that.

6% of the population commits over 50% of the murders nationwide. It's really way less than 6% when you consider that the vast majority are ages 15-40.
That's a cultural issue. There are tons of poor whites and Hispanics in the country. What else would explain such a stark contrast in violent crime rates?

Evangeline is pretty bad too. I remember cutting through Thomas Delpit to get onto the interstate while at LSU. Ironically the Thomas Delpit road was in a lot better condition than shitty Nicholson Road.

i arrived at my conclusion based on facts and data over an entire diverse city. i showed my work and linked where i got it from. you have...anecdotal evidence from some black people you know? LOL, ok. that's what we should be laughing at.

Look at what you've done here. You start with the black male demographic at 6% committing 50% of murders. Ok. But then you tried to make it sound even worse by suggesting that an even smaller percentage are in the young homicidal age range, without recognizing that blacks skew far younger than whites, with a median age more than a decade younger. Do you see the bias? The fact that most criminals are young and blacks skew young suggests that blacks are less violent than the initial statistic, but instead it's used to suggest that they are more violent. It's a mental perception adjustment in the wrong direction.
And spare me, guys, I'm not trying to excuse away murder. I'm just telling you that looking at things from a certain perspective, and sometimes outright flipping the facts, is counterproductive.

Maybe we can agree that it's "culture" instead. But now you'll have to convince me that "culture" is more closely tied to skin color than it is to socioeconomic status.

The truth is it's 2 parent households. Go check out the single motherhood rates and each race and you'll find the higher rate of single motherhood the worse the outcomes are.
Edit
Asian 84% 2 parent households
White 77%
Latino 66%
Black 37%
Literally explains the problems within the black community.

oh good, you're back.
please explain why these 3 low income areas aren't covered in murders.
if possible, please specifically address why in the 2nd pic dirt poor college kids 18-25 aren't murdering each other, and why in the 3rd pic a low income and highly dense black population "only" has one murder compared to a very similar population and density in north BR.
they're all low income areas according to the data, so what are the differences that could explain this?
i look forward to you dunking all over me with facts, figures, and links and completely demolishing my theory that it's primarily culture and not income.

Why are you continuously avoiding answering the statistics that were pointed out earlier about who commits the vast majority of violent crime in the United States?
