classic deflection. try harder. you aren't very good at this.
This debate started off because Bisjac deflected from the shooting in Palmdale to talk about black-on-black crime in the inner cities
Secondly, minorities are subjected to disproportionately affected by crime not because they have lower IQs or whatever the white supremacists like to suggest. From the Dept. of Housing and Urban Development, "Neighborhoods’ incidence of violent crime is related to an array of intertwined characteristics, including poverty, segregation, and inequality; collective efficacy, disorder, trust, and institutions; job access; immigration; residential instability, foreclosures, vacancy rates, and evictions; land use and the built environment; neighborhood change; and location of housing assistance."
These problems have more to do with class than income. As a matter of fact, there's a higher rate of violence among poor, urban whites than poor, urban blacks.
Thirdly, white-on-white crime occurs at the same rate as black-on-black crime. "According to the FBI’s uniform crime-reporting data for 2016, 90.1 percent of black victims of homicide were killed by other blacks, while 83.5 percent of whites were killed by other whites. While no life is inconsequential, the statistical evidence shows that—just as for blacks when it comes to black-on-black crime—whites are mostly victimized by other whites, with the vast majority of white murders committed by whites."
Finally, inner-city communities are making efforts everyday to curb violence, like "Stop the Violence" marches and the Interrupters program in Chicago. The answer isn't more brute policing, or god forbid electing GOP mayors, but creating more job opportunities or investing in education. Read up on cyclical poverty.
Maybe we should talk about the effects of redlining and segregation creating a hotbed of crime in urban communities rather than generalized crime stats. It's a fake argument made by white supremacists because they look at the
national crime rate and interpret that there's something inherently wrong with minorities rather than brown townyzing other socioeconomic factors. I know liberal arts programs are treated as soyboy bullstuff by the alt-right, but actually, education can make you a more knowledgeable person.
