Bullish!t. Take responsibility for the violence and crime in your own neighborhoods and stop pretending it’s everyone’s fault but your own.


This is racist thinking. All black people are responsible for anything done by any other black person? How do you know what neighborhood that poster lives in? Not all back people live in crime-filled neighborhoods.


So is expecting whites to feel guilty for it


Exactly. And ftr, I don’t feel guilty about it. Nor would I expect anyone else to feel guilty about problems in my community that have nothing to do with them.

There should not be a double-standard.


Do you really believe that Chris Rock wants white people killed? Of course he doesn't. He's just explaining to you how it feels to be black and you are butthurt about it because you are a snowflake.


I'm not the PP that wrote about it. I'm simply saying that if black folk want understanding from white folk, this isn't the way to go about it.


Some white folks aren't going to understand no matter how it's said.

Damn it seem like every thread longer than 10 pages somehow ends up on the subject of black-on-black crime.
WTF???


If racists don’t soothe themselves with the allegedly inferiority of minorities, they haven’t done their job.

You can use that as an excuse if you like.

The racism runs deep in deplorables.

The past few PPs have been discussing violence in black neighborhoods. Please don’t be purposely obtuse. Again I ask: what is it that blacks would like whites to do about black people killing other black people? If we speak out about it, we’re called racists. If we say and do nothing, we’re accused of ignoring the problem. What exactly should white people do about violence in black communities and why are we blamed for it? Do you have an actual answer or are you just going to continue with the PC non-answers?

WTF?! When are you going to take responsibility for white people killing each other? WTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF NOT ALL BLACK FOLKS LIVE TOGETHER.


Last I checked, we DO take responsibility. We’re certainly not blaming other racial groups for our faults.

You are a damn lie.

What happened to "OUR COMMUNITY"? Black people, white people, Hispanic people, Asian people - we are all Americans together. What happens in Chicago or rural West Virginia matters to me, because it's OUR country. That's OUR community. When someone bleeds in Chicago or West Virginia, we feel pain across the country.

This is one of the biggest issues today: atomization of the American populace. Something happening on Fox News in Chicago doesn't resonate with most viewers because they don't see it as part of "their" existence. That is what is truly sad - people only view life thru the lens of their own curated bubble.

No one said all blacks live together. We’re talking about neighborhoods in which there is a lot of violence, perpetuated by and against blacks. And as predicted, you have no answer for what you want white people to do about it - other than accept the blame for this violence that has nothing to do with us.


We want all people to care about all people dying due to senseless crime. To care about anyone that violence touches. Can you do that? Is that an answer for you? Not matter what your race is, your should care about black on black crime, white on white crime, human against human crime. But no one seems to care about the crime that is disproportionately ripping apart the families of POC. That's what I want white people to do. Care about little children in the hood dying like you care about the overcrowding at the JKLM schools. Care about the 13 people who were shot
in DC this past weekend. Care about the families of the nearly 4700 POC who died in PR. I mean c'mon, is it that hard to say I don't want children of any race to die due to crime and violence? And that want your government to do everything they can to put a stop to it? Nobody is blaming white people for the crime in Chicago. But some people stay with the us against them mentality.

That's why America will never be great (again?).

I never heard of her until just now. I object to her choice of language. But, she appears to be black. Can one black person be racist against another black person? That's probably a discussion in itself. I don't really care if she loses her job or not and don't have an opinion on whether she should.
