Jim Crow laws and redlining didn't just discriminate against Black and brown Americans, they created conditions that still affect crime rates in those neighborhoods today.
And just like that, you drop your previous point about the 94 crime bill to move on to next attack.
You are "forgetting" that my point was that we have had a bi-partisan consensus on equality for racial minorities since the mid 60s. Bringing up Jim Crow, which predates that, is... shit talk.
My point stands. Your talk of white supremacy as a real force in this nation, is retarded nonsense. EVERYTIME you lefties play that card, you end any hope of constructive, realistic issue discussion.
Which is fine. For you, as it often works for you politically. THe only down side is it prevents any possible real solutions to any real problems. So, you gain political power by letting people suffer on a massive scale.
Jim Crow restricted access to good education, decent jobs, and land ownership while redlining made it almost impossible for Black families to get homes in better neighborhoods regardless of their ability to pay.
More of you discussing shit before the mid 60s. Despite our discussion being about since the mid 60s.
Redlining also drained investment from Black neighborhoods prompting banks, grocery stores, and even some city governments to abandon those areas.
Illegal for my entire life. And I am not young. How long you going to ignore generations of policy and behavior and culture adn economies, to blame people long dead? YOu sure you don't want to blame the romans for not doing something? I mean it is only 2000 years ago, you could get some political milage by... something, I don't know, you people are the experts at shit talk. BLAH, BLAH, BLAH.
Over-policing and under-protection by racist police officers who punished petty offenses while failing to protect against serious crime also spiked Black crime rates.
You know, you are mostly talking about DEM politiicans and cops in DEM controlled cities that were motivated by lib approved policies designed to help make black and brown communities safer. YOu read the ideas behind those police strategies and it wasn't w.s. but ways to try to save brown and black lives. Their success or failure is another discussion, but their intent was certainly not w.s. That's a dumb complaint to make against most of those dems. Many of whom were not white themselves of course.
Consult ChatGPT if you have the slightest interest in learning more (which, of course, you don't.)
The bit where you presume to teach your ideological opponent, as though there was no possible legit reason for any reasonable person to NOT agree with you,
is just you being an asshole.
