well that's refreshing to hear.
what do you think about red saying that black people are just more inclined to crime?
what do you think about kynes belief that hanging around with blacks will make you inclined to commit crime?
I don't really care what they think about racial issues. I will tell what I've seen by being in the very core of Detroit all those years.
What I've seen is that the school system the children attend in Detroit is being stripped from the inside. Central distribution for the schools the supplies come in the front and go out the back door and the students see nothing. No toilet paper, hand towels, pens, paper, etc., though you can see the paper products in every coney island in the city. The kids can't learn if they don't have supplies. I can't remember how many teacher laptops are missing, but it was a lot, it is just engrained in the system. When staff had to come and sign in to receive their paychecks, 250 less paycheck were not hand out to non-existent employees. They can't lock the doors on the schools because of fire codes so the gangs wander the halls. How can they learn? Without an education they are trapped.
The street lights don't work and gunfire is prevalent and expected. And they get immune to it all. Mom probably isn't home, she is either at her job or... They don't have a chance. It isn't so much about race as it is about an engrained way of life that almost guarantees a life of crime. How can they know anything different? Life is hard scramble and difficult. There are good people left in the city but they are trapped they'd get out if they could afford to and they are scared. I got to leave and go home but they had to live there.
They have new fire trucks but they are in for repairs and under warranty but they aren't being fixed, why? Because the union won't let the manufacturer repair them because the union says it is their job. Problem is they only have a few qualified mechanics so they sit in the yard and rust. All of this stuff is stealing from that young boys and girls and the citizens trying to get up and get out of the ghetto.
I've seen white trash doing exactly the same things. To me it is more economic than racial. It is also the way they believe in not talking to or trusting the police and the system, that allows the criminal element to thrive. Stealing from the system is accepted but is stealing from those that truly need it. In my neighborhood they have no problem calling the police, not only calling but they actually expect the police to show up.
We haven't even touched on crime that the general population does. So no, I don't think it is race, my customers were good black folk.
