A Serious Discussion on the Homicide Rate in the Black Community

[acri1]

So what's the motive for most of these homicides?

Are they doing it for money because they're broke? People putting out hits? Gang shyt? Clout? Listening to too much rap? Mudering over females? IMO the only way to solve the issue is to find out what's motivating people to kill each other.


I've never killed anybody myself so I can only guess

 

[Pazzy]

I have to explain what raising your kids mean? This is why you are a failure. Excuses for everything.
Yes those goons running around killing shyt were raised well

Dude, get your own dikk out your mouth.

You sound like eric adams on some housenegro shyt.

You claim to value your blackness but yet you make it a point to look down on other black people who you think arent in the same income or social status like you. You basically trying to do the same shyt that the same racists, white supremacists that are finding every reason to down your black ass are doing to other black folks who arent as fortunate as you are.

Mr. bougie.

ya I know…often due to family financial setbacks, we don’t have the luxury of going to school and exploring options/careers or just simply making mistakes

Exactly, we don't have an uncle who owns a company who we can run too if plan a failed.


We don't have a cousin bob who is unionized and can get you through the loopholes of getting a union based job

We walk on a fine edge out in the world and if our direction is not clear we are often left in the middle of an ocean without a paddle.

Living in it. Contributing to the tax base, not being a murderous dikkhead, and influencing my family members to do the same

 

[Freedman]

Not one of the complainers but I try to do something. There some young brehs that I'm cool with that I let hang out at my crib to try and keep them from being out in the streets doing dumb shyt. Even convinced 2 of em to start trade school this fall semester. Really just repaying the favor to the universe OG did the same for me when I was 16-20 hanging out kept us out alot of BS. Some of us would be at the OG spot smoking, movies, movies , sports, games etc while our other homies was in the field crashing out

 

[CrimsonTider]

You likely cacs pretending to be black ranting on the coli all day about crime in the black community. What are you doing yo better the community? Are you volunteering? Are you contacting politicians and community leaders in those areas? are you donating to organizations that try to find solutions to inner city violence? Why don't you become a cop in those communities if you're so outraged?

Or do you want to continue to shyt on black people on a daily basis making catty rants like a bytch because you're mentally unstable and pathetic?

 

[Samori Toure]

I'll add.


Notice how lyrics that advocate or discuss killing black people are pushed by record companies but any lyrics talking about Jews/Asians/etc are considered problematic and not aired.


These music companies know the psychological damage of the violent rhetoric and they actively push it

It is sad because the kids don't see it until it is too late and they themselves become a product of the dysfunction. It is literally a trap and why would kids know that traps have been laid for their own self destruction? It is usually the job of parents to guide their children through mazes and traps of life, but what happens when the kids parent are part of the dysfunction and they neglect and/or abandon their kids? Who guides the kids then? So like I stated in my earlier post I might be in the minority on this position, but he glorification of the "thug culture" in music and media is not helping.

I will climb back down off of my soap box.

Be honest, what does any of that do? Lots of south siders, equipped with section 8 vouchers left the south side en masse for the south suburbs which had better schools, peaceful neighborhoods, robust economic corridors, and tight nit communities and now the south suburbs are going to shyt. What do you expect these communities to do?

You can uproot these folks from one environment to another environment that’s the complete opposite and they will still bring their former environment with them, because they are bringing a mentality. And how they think informs their reality.

Reform starts at home, before the community could ever do anything to help. These families need to learn that because they are struggling, it doesn’t give them an out to raise criminals. Millions of black people have raised normal kids in spite of discrimination, redlining, loss of economic opportunities, etc.

My own people left Englewood and Washington Park in the 60’s for the burbs. But I still had family that stayed behind and raised their kids in the city. We still have our family homes on 61st and Racine and 57th and Indiana. Despite the neighborhood changes, none of my cousins succumbed to getting involved in criminal activity, still live in those neighborhoods, and are living normal lives. Why? Because of their family.

We can volunteer and be mentors, we can come in and try to establish businesses to bring economic resources to the community, we can establish neighborhood watches, we can try to reform the schools, but if a kid is not mentally receptive to any of that because his family didn’t lay the groundwork, none of that stuff even matters.

You consistently put the bulk of the responsibility on the wrong parties.

If anything, I can concede that we need to expand mental health resources and make that the most top priority. Expansive therapy is needed to change these home dynamics.

 

[Drip Bayless]

This don’t have shyt to do with Republicans dummy. Where do you live to support these terrorists? You either have family members who are terrorists or live in a safe “white suburb” tired of you idiots being dismissive

Yes, these are supervillains in the black community, once we kill them, it should be all good! The violence will stop right
Y’all stay stuck on stupid man

 

[DatNkkaCutty]

I can't speak for others but I only call people c00ns who "calls this out" (As if it hasn't been regularly called out for decades)

For:

1. Refuse to discuss in good faith how Black people got here, or acknowledging the factors outside the community that contributed to our condition("We gots to do better" is only about 50% of the solution)

2. They offer no constructive feedback or generally don't look at the situation with any nuance.

This makes ot seem like they're concern trolling or even taunting.

Like whats the point of going on a website with a heavy Black presence...and just shyt on Black folks and talk a bunch of doom and gloom. And then dismiss any arguments that try to look at the situation with nuance?

Even if its true....even if Black people are...idk what exactly people like the op are trying to get at...I guess that Blacks are inherently savage and ignorant? Naturally lazy and unmotivated? Seeing how people like the op disregard White supremacy and society as a whole's role in the Black condition...that must be what they are getting at.

THIS....and preach. This is all that needs to be said.

OP doesn't understand he is c00ning. A lot of ppl lack critical-thinking. Nggas are becoming even more savage, because the hopelessness, is accelerating. No jobs, no investments, tired of being stonewalled & railroaded, at every turn. You c00ns want to waste another 2 generations, marching and sobbing.

So now you have a younger generation, on some "get how you live", shyt, or "by any means necessary" shyt. A "nothin to live for" mentality. That's a product of systematic oppression, and poverty. I see neighborhoods lookin like complete war-zones. Of course you'd have a bunch of killers, and "soldiers", running around. It aint rocket-science.

A real *man. You're disparaging him while trying to use him as a measuring stick.

Have you been to therapy yet?

Once again an idiot defending terrorists. You’re more mad at me then the ones causing the destruction. I’m “stuck on stupid” but the actual terrorists aren’t? Y’all are so ass backwards

So you expect these people who have been shaped by a certain environment for generations to suddenly learn a different way of life and thinking?
