How is stating the facts racist? Please explain your reasoning for this belief. I have stated the facts. Nothing else. You must be a liberal. You're pretty handy with that race card.
Well the fact that the one stat you state is that they have high black populations, instead of things about the jobless rates, or low incomes, or low education scores... that shows you are racist.
So you think there is an excuse for criminality? Really?
Actually, that's what I study in college, and no I did not say there was "an excuse" for criminality, but there are factors in it.
The only factor in it is not giving a shit about your fellow man. My fathers family grew up as poor as you can get, 9 kids, father died young of TB, all were successful people, none spent one day in jail. In fact a couple died millionaires.
No, that's your opinion, and a logical fallacy to take one instance and extrapolate that to the entire society. That's like saying my grandpa smoke two packs a cigarettes a day and he lived to be 101, ergo cigarettes don't kill people.
You are not stating "the simple facts." You are stating biased, partisan, racist so-called facts based on a skewed perception of reality. You have NO critical thinking skills. You are unable to see past your biases or believe in anything that goes against your tunnel vision.I just love how these fools try to say I'm racist for stating the simple facts.
If I had said something like "Those damn ******* are responsible for this shit. They're the spawn of Satan. We need to send them all back to Africa. Should have picked our own damn cotton." I could see their point. But I didn't. I merely stated the facts. And if you are offended by the facts, then you are on the wrong side of the truth. I'll leave it there.
One city that has not been run into the ground by Democrats: New York, Los Angeles, Seattle, San Francisco, Boston.
That's more than one.
Recalling New York at the Brink of Bankruptcy
You were saying?
Are you referring all the way back to the mid 70's when there was a national oil crisis?
People drowning in Texas left and right. This can't possibly be a coincidence. Texan Republicans have left that states ability to cope with floods in ruins resulting in many needless deaths.
You can spin something any way you like. See.
No that's just nature taking its course, most of the dead, stupidly drove into flood water. All in spite of a major "Turn around, don't drown" campaign.
Conservatives have a never ending list of excuses why they fail.
Never, ending.

Be honest, be real: this issue of violence is down to poverty and mainly, MAINLY, drug problems.
As long as there has been human civilization, there has been criminality based on poverty, lack of education, and lack of a strong upbringing in human values. Since the dawn of civilization that has been true. No one is 'excusing' anything. It's an explanation. You too, it seems, are sorely lacking in critical thinking skills and in an ability to think and see beyond your own tunnel vision.I agree, it's not good.

Excuse me child, this is the 21st century, every person in this country is exposed to the proper principles needed to live a productive life. In school from pre-K up, on TV and every other form of media. They've run clean out of excuses. Personally I strongly believe in a three felony strikes and you're dead policy. If a person persistently demonstrates they can't live in a civilized society, then they just don't get to live.
I wasn't taught "proper principles needed to live a productive life" in school. I learned those from my parents, and my church. I had role models around me to teach and support me.
When people don't have jobs - and unemployment is a huge problem in cities like Baltimore, there is no hope and no money. Successful people move away from inner city crime and trouble, so there are few role models for inner city kids, just gang bangers and dope dealers.
Children grow up to be what they see. When a child of a doctor or lawyer grows up to be a doctor or a lawyer, we're not surprised because they're emulating their parents. But when a poor welfare kid grows up to be a welfare adult, we're shocked that he/she didn't learn from their parents' example. The problem is, they did.
True. However, as Dragonlady alluded, there's a difference between someone simply being down on their luck, elderly or infirm and someone who was raised as a welfare child to become a welfare adult.Being on welfare doesn't make you a criminal.
NO, because his premise is correct, the democrat run cities have done nothing in many cases for four plus decades on the local level. And its a direct reflection of democrat spending on social issues and NOT jobs or infrastructure.No, you didn’t ‘present facts,’ you presented a premise that fails as a fallacy.Even if what you say is correct...it isn't, but just pretend...How is stating the truth racist? I presented the facts, then asked for comments. I then get called a raaaaaaaaaaaaaacist! Puhleeeeeese. I can only laugh so much before I hyperventilate. LOL!You are making the mistake of implying that I, or someone else, said that skin color was to blame. I do not believe that anyone said that. However, the black culture, which votes democrat, are responsible for what's happening in these cities. Do you see the difference? Probably not. SIGH!Seeing as the top 8 murder capitals are in the Americas
List of cities by murder rate - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Only one of the top 40 in outside of America. Apparently it's blacks that do it. If this were the case, then Africa would be more dangerous, right? Seeing as many Africans cities have higher number of blacks than American cities
Caracas, number one in the murder rate, is in a country with a 16% Black population.
San Pedro de Sula, a country with a 3% black population.
I'm thinking you're not onto something here.
C'mon dood. You start out with a title gasping "this can't be a coincidence" and then proceed to cherrypick your way into the "coincidence" you want it to go to. No, there are no "coincidences" in cherrypicking.
You incorrectly inferred that because democrats ‘controlled’ these cities for decades they must be ‘responsible’ for all that’s wrong with the cities, which is a logical fallacy, an example of poor reasoning, given the fact that there are many other factors that contribute to the problems cities face having nothing to do with ‘democrats.’
Or you knew that democrats aren’t ‘responsible’ for the problems but attempted to propagate your lie anyway in bad faith for some perceived partisan advantage.
In any event, your premise fails as either a confusion of correlation and causation fallacy or a straw man fallacy – take your pick.
You respect others? No.I agree, it's not good. But it has mostly to do with neighborhoods with high drug problems and drug trafficking as well as a lot of poverty. Nothing to do with liberalism or race. Cape Town is number 9, not at the top of the list, and yet if any place has a predominantly black population, Cape Town does and has a ton of racial issues. Also lots of poverty.Most Dangerous Cities in the World
Murder Rate (per 100,000)
Almost all of it has to do with poverty and drug trafficking. Notice that no European countries are listed: yet those countries are by far the most liberal and democratic on the planet. It is not liberalism or democracy that causes violence: it is lack of education and poverty.

14, 19 and 28 out of 50, in the US, that's embarrassing.
Be honest, be real: this issue of violence is down to poverty and mainly, MAINLY, drug problems.
And another tries to excuse criminality. It all boils down to not giving a shit about your fellow man, if you respect others you don't victimize them, period, end of story.
But you like yourself and people like you okay. The rest you couldn't care less about.
Really, tell the rest of the class how many hours you volunteer a week at your local food pantry or other charitable organizations. My wife and I do 8-9 hours.

You really love twisting things around to make yourself look better. When looking at how well a city is doing, you have to go back a few decades to decide which party is responsible, as different parties can be elected from year to year. The ten cities I mentioned have been under exclusive control of liberals for decades. There is no one else to blame it on. They own this mess. No one else. Their LIBERAL policies have destroyed these cities economically.NO, because his premise is correct, the democrat run cities have done nothing in many cases for four plus decades on the local level.

Lots of people are making a lot of points that they are saying are facts, but how many people in this thread have actually provided links or data to back them up? Lutroo said St. Louis was one of the cities that had large black populations, when in fact is almost a 50/50 split with whites. Others have said that Democrats destroy cities. Well here is a list of the top 10 cities in the United States...here is the links and it shows who is the mayor of each city. Guess how many are Republicans?

I personally rescued 356 nuns and orphans from a dragon this morning before coffee. They're all living happy productive lives now. The end.
