I don't think that was the reason. I think the reason is that progressives truly believe that people who have grown up being influenced by bad behaviors can have good behaviors rub off on them just by being closer to people who have grown up being influenced by good behaviors.


Then why don't democrat politicians vote for putting section 8 housing in their neighborhoods?
They know what happens.

Closer to 2% than 7.

It's actually much worse than that. Its a small segment of that 70% that are the offenders. 3.5% male, roughly, and of that 3.5% ages 16-30 commit the very high majority.

In actuality, it is about 1.5 to 2% of the population committing the vast majority of violent crime in the USA.

Similar to the old athletic analogy, 5% of the players cause 95% of the problems on a roster.

Same in real life.

Not all kids go down that path, but it’s certainly not difficult to see the correlation between 70%+ fatherless homes and violent crime, incarceration, drug use, etc.

Do you think these are unrelated? If so, what could be other factors that could contribute to such a low % of the population commuting such larger % of crime?

My uncle is an administrator for Lafayette Sheriff's office. He told me Lafayette's crime rate would be cut down to 2% of what it is now if we just threw 200 habitual offenders in jail.

There are many posters on this site (the noted centrists) who find posting these statistics more offensive than the murders themselves. White guilt is a powerful tool.


Anytime straight up truth is spoken, such as, there are two genders, transmania is simply mental illness, open borders will eventually destroy a nation, or black men commit a shite load of the nation's crime, the Wokesters have no refutation, so they immediately go to the oppressor/oppressed card.

The Twitter account stated the data was pulled from the DOJ and you too can look up the same data. You didn't even read and instead just sought to discredit the source and ignore the facts. Typical prog BS

On an unrelated topic have you ever met a murderer? I've met a couple and I never thought they were the type of people capable of murder.

Well, they are just products of their environment. Blah, Blah, Blah. It’s weird that every place in America that has a large majority of blacks also had a large crime rate. It’s almost like a continent that I’ve heard of but in America. Weird.

Not surprising.

Just last week you argued for hours against an absolute, inarguably true statement that Trump made.

You then doubled-down over and over despite being shown proof in plain black and white that you were wrong.

It's not surprising that your cognitive skills might not be up to the task.

I have met several. Both before and after.

Not shocked by two. A little surprised by another.

It's actually pretty simple. If you are convicted of committing a violent crime, regardless of age, you're either executed or sent to prison for life without the possibility of ever getting out.

With activist Judges, that phrase no longer has any meaning.

Well sure it's never going to happen but people don't need to act like there are no solutions. A very small percentage of the population commits the vast majority of violent crimes. You remove their freedom.

It’s not amazing when you understand the media in this country openly operate as the propaganda wing of the Democrat Party.
