Or maybe nurture a society that values taking care of citizens instead of locking them away. For example, how many of these people are locked up for drug related crimes? Do we really need those laws? Real talk

I'm sure those deadbeat dad's are chomping at the bit to go home and be strong and present fathers to their children if it just wasn't for those pesky laws stopping them. And I'm sure no one would break laws if they were just petted and coddled enough.

You do realize, with that mentality, that you’re part of the problem, right? The victim mentality is much more damaging to the AA community than your imaginary “AA’s have been beat down...” nonsense.

No, imagine those rates if these people actually had to work for a living. The Nanny State/Democrat plantations is exactly what has led to the devastation of the family structure of welfare families.

From 2011-2012 only 28 people out of 67,600 offenders were incarcerated on drug possession charges alone in federal criminal cases.
Only 3% of state inmates have drug possession as their most serious offense.
It's a myth people are getting locked up over weed

It’s easier to use drugs as an excuse than admitting that certain subsections of the population need radical change.

Stuff like this sheds light on why most white people shrug off isolated police brutality cases or white on black racism.
Because media sells Black America as perpetually victimized, but the crime in most of our neighborhoods totally belies that argument.
I do feel for and support black Americans whose lives are made more difficult by the criminality of some who share their race and the reaction of everyone else to those criminals (sometimes justified, sometimes not).

i take a different approach to issues like this.
First fix the immediate problem. Treat criminals like criminals. Let people call you names, but get the trash off of the streets. Put them in tents if that is the only way to house them. Stop and frisk, I don't care. Ask any street cop, and they know who and where the trouble comes from. Well grab them.
Deal with the WHY second. The why takes years to implement. I personally don't care about the why. If little luther can't hang out with the wrong crowd all night, well he may be more apt to go to school the next day. if people were not afraid little luther would rob him blind, you may see some more after school "work study" programs by private individuals.

It's already known that people who don't have both a father and a mother and their household are more likely to commit crimes. Well if such a high percentage of black males are incarcerated then they're going to have children who are raised without a father. Just continues the cycle
So it begs the question of why the hell that is a the fault of society as a whole? I mean do you want everyone to look the other way when crimes are committed? Hate to tell you but all that will do is lead to more crime. Sorry but the only way I see this changing is stop blaming others for an issue created by enabling people be the way they are. So to sum it up, stop throwing out smoke and mirror BS excuses and look at their own community and call them out. Stop with the crime. Stop having multiple babies with multiple partners and invest back into that community.

WRONG. As my grandfather often said, "An idle mind is the Devil's playground."
Put them to work. Give them responsibilities. Let them earn some pride. The rest will take care of itself. There is dignity in work.
And if you don't see how the black unemployment rate is affected by 11M illegals, then you can only be a SJW.

where did those images come from? Not the FBI site. The FBI site doesn't seem to have that data in that form. Someone did some calculations off of that. Looks like twitter.

So how is the problem really solved?
Like all problems, it must be acknowledged. Many don't want to acknowledge it.
Then the root causes need to be identified. This is done already. But, many people are afraid to address it.
Then you have to fix it. This is tricky. #1, you have to have buy in from those that need to fix it. Those people have been brainwashed to reject what it would take to fix. Secondarily, you have the same group who won't admit the problem/cause continuing to want to brainwash. Finally, any solution is going to have slow results given that the cause is cultural in nature.

Who lead the charge to put those laws on the books? I think if you research it you will be shocked that it was actually championed by black politicians. I admit that simple marijuana possession should not lead to incarceration. However, multiple serious infractions should because it is clear someone won’t change their behavior. Additionally, hardcore drugs such as crack and meth deserve strict sentences due to how destructive adicts are.

this stuff is from infowars. It might be correct, or it might be bunk. I am not going to bother to find out, as yall won't believe me.

There has been many racial minorities that immigrated to America and rose up from poverty and negative racial stereotypes. Do you think Americans had an unbiased, non-racists view of the Vietnamese? Yet somehow they never committed crimes at the same rate. They manage to carve themselves a niche and become productive members of society. Irish are a similar case. They brought crime, drunkenness, fights, and general disorder but rose up.
In the black community, even centuries later, individuals rise up all the time, but families mostly do not and communities never do.

The problem with our country is how deeply engrained the social programs are within certain communities, and how anyone taking them on from a legislative standpoint would be committing career suicide.
People feel entitled to government support, even if they didn’t pay any money into it. It’s a shame.

I'm with you on the dignity of work.
But it's just not that simple is it? American businesses have one pool of workers ready and eager to do menial work for relatively low pay, and do it reasonably well. Then another pool with varying interest in work, with a perceived lower eagerness to work and far higher demands for the work willing to be done.

This is an example of what I'm talking about. Even in this anonymous arena, you have someone who chooses to focus on the response to the numbers rather than the cause.
The thought that someone like VOR would be interested in working to solve this problem is naive. He's much more interested in using the reality as a way of disparaging those that find the reality objectionable. These are the people who have worked to put the black population in the state that it is in. They still want that and will fight fixing it at every turn. These are the true racists.
