10 most Dangerous Neighborhoods in America

[We Keep Receipts 9,238]

-I point out the actions of the Black underclass and you say they are rejected due to their color. (Nice try)

-Please, don't compare "White trailer trash" to Lower class Blacks, they are two different classes with huge differences in crime rates, education attainment, Community involvement, levels of employment etc. There is little to compare to.

-Show me how many areas have been populated by trailer trash which were a gem and were then transformed into a Sh_thole, sure it happens in pockets here and there but nothing compares to what we consistently see in areas heavily populated by lower class Blacks.

What has been the legacy of the "great migration"?

Just consider Camden, Phili Detriot, Chicago, Cleveland and on and on it goes, cities were either large sections or the whole place is hollowed out despite the endless stream of aid pouring into these areas.

I could produce stat after stat documenting all of this, it is undeniable, the reason I bring it up is because no one else will and the silence is feeding the lie that has been so detrimental to the ruination of the Black community.... and by extension the areas they live around.

Look man, I was raised to treat all people equal, and that is exactly why I refuse to yield at holding Blacks to a lower standard than anyone else.

I know many are used to that soft bigotry of silence of low expectations of pretending things are getting better when there is so little evidence.

We are not on the path to realizing Kings dream.

You're doing it again. You use stats in a game that's tipped in your favor. Why do you ignore when we post stats that show blacks without criminal records are hired LESS than whites with records? Why are you silent when we post stats showing blacks and hispanics are sentenced to harsher punishments than whites who do equal and greater crimes? Why are you absent when we post links that show school mediation is completely different for black kids(jail or prison) than white kids(couseling)? Where are you when we post about the median income for black is 20 times less than it is for whites?

You only want to see stats that back up your kind of thinking. The game has been rigged from day one, yet you refuse to see this.

Marvin I want you to share some of those stats with me, I am interested.

Typically when I look through them I find the answers you are looking for such as-

Black kids do more time for two reasons

- They are much more likely to be repeat offenders.

-Black kids are much less likely to be from a home with a single mom and no resources to hire an attorney. Whites are more likely to have a family which

has cohesion and there for resources. (Don't blame the white family for doing what a family should do, Blame the Black women for not providing a secure environment for her offspring.)

Blacks get hired less.

One of the unfortunate realities of life is we are judged by stereo types... because they so often have merrit to them.

If a man has a Southern accent many might assume he is more likely to hold racist views, is this fair?

No but in part because of reality and in great part because of myth it is a reality he must accept.

Blacks are much more likely to commit crime than a white person, if an employer has has similar bad experiences, he might allow that to factor in when making future decisions. It's not fair yet it is a reality.

If you were a land lord and Blacks were much more likely to get behind on rent... would you not be much more selective on who you rent too?

It works the other way too.

IF a Land lord knows Hispanics pay on time and don't complain much, he might look past whites and Blacks and prefer hispanics.

Again share some of those studies I would like to look past the headlines and see the details.

In white schools, if a fight breaks out, the kids are separated, and mediation is brought in to resolve the conflict. In black schools, the cops are brought in and those kids get records and jail time.

Blacks get more jail time:

This has so many answers to it, I'll sum it up for you. Because blacks don't have the same access to the programs whites get for rehabilitation, money is key here.

Blacks get hired less:

http://ac360.blogs.cnn.com/2008/08/09/study-black-man-and-white-felon-same-chances-for-hire/

The results of these studies were startling. Among those with no criminal record, white applicants were more than twice as likely to receive a callback relative to equally qualified black applicants. Even more troubling, whites with a felony conviction fared just as well, if not better, than a black applicant with a clean background.

Great post

[We Keep Receipts 9,238]

Great post

Thanks. I just think perspective is needed when it comes to race. Folks love to point the finger and say it's all on us. When you hit them with stats that clearly show there is a bias, they say stop whining and deal with it. We can't win for losing.

Actually if two white people get in a fight the cops find apprehend the first saggy panted scape goat they can find and charge him with the crime, the blackcops arein on it..They get the special white people only salary for cops to keep their mouth shut

Kinda like whipping boys...Jesus Marvin, there is not a grand wizard behind every tree

Sadly, my statement came from one of the articles I posted. It was said to highlight the difference between black and white schools. Just because you don't have a robe and pointed hood on, doesn't make it less dangerous for our black kids.

This video is hilarious!!

[The Nature Boy 4,224]

This video is hilarious!!

It was funny. Eddie Murphy did a skit like that on Sat night live that was the bomb.

But honestly blacks tend to think things are way more racist than they really are. I am a white person from the deep south,Whites are not as obsessed with race as you think, and we do not set about to disenfranchise blacks.

I was in industrial management for almost 30 years.We honestly go out of our way to find and promote good black people. My last job as plant manager I fired the white head of maintenance. I hired a black guy to take his place. Not because he was black, but because he was talented. To this day he is the best multi-craft maintenance person I ever met. Probably the best human i have ever met also.

A lot of times when blacks cry racism it is not.

Marvin, come on bro, that is not anything more than a NEA project to end charter schools and expand their school system. It only seemed to refer to some "study" which it no doubt put together and, it never even offered definitive data.. or even much data at all.

It only focused on Chicago as well.

What we see here is the classic- Different outcomes (of student behavior) are evidence of Blacks being picked on. Even the terminology was quite militant.

Let me check out your other links.

Normally I stay out of racially charged discussions but I wanted to comment on one of the links you posted.

When I first read the article I thought to myself "who the hell wrote this?"

So I looked further and found out. Not sure if she would be the most reliable source for these types of facts.

On the other hand she is an Adam Lambert fan so....

I have found more reliable sources on this subject. Last night I was trying to get them out before the missus got home.

There are quite a few articles that go into great detail about this. It's no secret.

I know sometimes it is not. But the problem is eventually the lines blur soo much that it is hard to make a determination on when it is and when it is not. Sadly

And good for your company. There is nothing wrong with a little diversity. It is fun when people have different backgrounds and stories.
