More government fixes nothing. The people in those communities need to fix the culture themselves. Instead, they celebrate it so it continues.
What exactly did a Fed Ex worker living in a two parent household, who committed no crime, do that amounts to celebrating this “culture” you speak of and therefore makes this situation his own fault?

One day these dweebs will make the connection to the size of government and the size of enforcement necessary to support that government.

You're ignoring the backgrounds of those that killed him.

And if posters on a site are going to operate by default in bad faith, like yourself, and the buddies you stepped past to go after me in a thread full of conservative shite posting, don’t expect others to go to the mat typing up 2000 words essays that will simply be quoted with half a dozen shite posts, or as evidenced later on, ghosted out of to….shite post at them elsewhere.

I'm sure there are entire police forces in some area that are corrupt, doesn't change the overall percent. You think it does?

I don’t have buddies on this site and have operated in as good of faith as you deserve. Your whataboutism changes nothing.

So is this false choice:
what started the Bronc train in this thread?

And if the inevitable answer is “culture,” then the follow up. What led to the culture? Are black people simply biologically inferior in some capacity, or was this again brought on by social pressures/stratification?

Same
See how this works?
But you have sparse words for the far right shite posters littering this thread, but a sudden bleeding heart about civility and effort when someone you ideologically disagree with shows up and snarks back.
I’m not here for your amusement. And if you had more than virtue signaling in mind, you could have taken any opportunity as the conversations evolved to jump in and participate in good faith. You deliberately jumped back in to try and bring it back to the personal attack level. So don’t get all weepy and whiny when people start slinging mud when you only look to drag conversations to it.

Rampart Scandal was a good example. A gang unit gone wild.

quote:
In extensive testimony to investigators, Pérez provided a detailed portrait of the culture of the elite CRASH unit. Pérez insisted that 90% of CRASH officers were "in the loop", knowingly framing civilians and perjuring themselves on the witness stand. Pérez claims his superiors were aware of and encouraged CRASH officers to engage in misconduct; the goal of the unit was to arrest gang members by any means necessary.
Pérez claimed CRASH officers were awarded plaques for shooting civilians and suspects, with extra honors if such persons were killed. Pérez alleges that CRASH officers carried spare guns in their "war bags" to plant on civilians and suspects, in order to avoid responsibility for their alleged crime. In recorded testimony, Pérez revealed the CRASH motto: "We intimidate those who intimidate others."[3]
CRASH officers would get together at the Short Stop, a bar near Dodger Stadium in Echo Park to drink and celebrate shootings.[13] Supervisors handed out plaques to shooters, containing red or black playing cards. A red card indicated a wounding and a black card indicated a killing, which was considered more prestigious. Pérez testified that at least one Rampart lieutenant attended these celebrations.[14]
Rampart officers wore tattoos of the CRASH logo, a skull with a cowboy hat encircled with poker cards depicting the "dead man's hand", aces and eights.[14]
Rampart ties to Death Row Records
The Rampart Corruption Task Force investigators discovered that hip hop mogul Suge Knight, owner of Death Row Records, had hired several of the corrupt Rampart officers for security at various times including Nino Durden, Kevin Gaines, David Mack, and Rafael Pérez. Knight was hiring off-duty Rampart policemen to work for Death Row as security guards for substantial amounts of money. After Gaines was killed, investigators discovered Gaines drove a Mercedes-Benz and wore designer suits, and they found a receipt in his apartment for a $952 restaurant tab at the Los Angeles hangout, Monty's Steakhouse.[7]
quote:
On April 16, 2007, the estate of Christopher George Latore Wallace, a.k.a. The Notorious B.I.G., filed a wrongful death lawsuit against the City of Los Angeles, which also named as defendants Rampart officers Durden, Mack, and Pérez.[16] The lawsuit alleges that Durden, Mack, and Pérez conspired to murder Christopher Wallace, and Pérez and Mack were present on the night of the murder outside the Petersen Automotive Museum on Wilshire Boulevard, on March 9, 1997.[17]

I’m sorry I called out your original bad post and your hypocritical lecturing and it hurt your feelings. And yeah, you certainly aren’t the only poster on this site guilty of these sins, and many of them come from the right side of the aisle. Now that we can move past that, I’ll reiterate:
Your whataboutism doesn’t change anything.

Fun fact
The legendary FX series The Shield was initially slated to be titled Rampart.
