Don’t let yourself be fooled by the idea that Black-on-Black crime is an excuse for disregarding the violence that many people of color are living in right now.
The truth is, most crime stays within races, but you never hear anyone disregard a white person’s murder by saying, “Well, you know all about white-on-white crime!”
No, crime is crime, murder is murder.
Don’t be fooled.
If people had a goal of reducing violence in communities they would look to see the source of violence in those communities. If murder is murder why constantly try to ignore and explain away the VAST majority of violence?
Progressives are the ones who disregard violence based on who commits it. We just had an article here talking about young black men being the victims of violence. The author spent the majority of his article denigrating white middle class people who commit almost NO violence against young black men.
just bizarre.
85% of white crime is committed by other whites – why don’t you have that conversation in “your community”. See my comments above….you watch TOO MUCH NEWS!

“Do you know that Negroes are 10 percent of the population of St. Louis and are responsible for 58% of its crimes? We’ve got to face that. And we’ve got to do something about our moral standards…..We know that there are many things wrong in the white world, but there are many things wrong in the black world, too. We can’t keep on blaming the white man. There are things we must do for ourselves.”

What about WHITE CRIME–instead of daily night stereotyping by local news, let’s get the truth in the open! Blacks DO NOT deny crime isn’t a problem in the black SEGREGATED COMMUNITIES OF DISADVANTAGE CREATED BY WHITE RACISM. RESIDENTAIL SEGREGATION IS THE REAL PROBLEM, a result of white racism. Every major urban area in the North, South, Midwest, and West are SEGREGATED. They became SEGREGATED because of WHITE RACISM, and as a result JOB DISCRIMINATION and URBAN JOB SPRAWL which followed. The history of this nation is steeped in racism, and yes, CRIME IN THE BLACK COMMUNITY (AND HISPANIC COMMUNITIES) IS… Read more »
What a feeble opinion and video.
Who exactly (of some importance rather than a tweeterer) is making that excuse?
What I’ve seen some people say is that aside from incidents that get a national spot light for a brief moment in time, there is no focus on the urban killings that involve mostly poor minorities and occur as regular as sunrise and sunset.
Is this a progressive sound bite aimed at correcting mistaken sensibilities and failing at both reality and math?
This video is an ADVERTISEMENT! It used A FACT as the hook for the movie that is coming out. AND YES IT IS CORRECT. The “SO WHAT” of the advertisement is THAT CRIME IS SEGREGATED–IN A SEGREGATED SOCIETY. You want to complain about black-on-black crime, but refuse to acknowledge that of all things in America dealing with race and social segregation, EVEN CRIME IS SEGREGATED. Why do whites say blacks need to stop crime in their community (Even the statement reinforces SEGREGATION) WHEN IN FACT RESIDENTIAL COMMUNITIES ACROSS THE NATION ARE SEGREGATED, AS A PRODUCT OF WHITE RACISM (EVEN STRUCTURAL)… Read more »
