Black-on-black crime is the primary root of all this. All of it. There is of course black-on-white crime and to a lesser extent, white-on-black crime. But the dominant social movement - the reason the police are so intimately in contact with this community (with the massively focused-on results) - is black-on-black crime.

The root of black-on-black crime? The destruction of black social support systems, most especially the family.

And who is responsible for that? The policies that have done the most to destroy black social systems have been put in place by precisely the people who are now claiming to be their greatest friends - liberal whites.

This is a predictable disaster. It will end when people let go of their "ideal" world-saving instincts, and begin to address the world just as it is.

Punish criminal behavior - regardless of race. Reward responsible behavior - regardless of race. Stop subsidizing failure, both at the extreme bottom of the social ladder, and most especially at the extreme top of the social ladder, where we have more dead wood than can even be imagined.

I can dream.

Sucks for the business owners. Maybe the police aren't so bad after all..?

The gofundme blames the police. They say carjackings and shootings have tripled and the police have "abandoned" them.

Hahahahahahahahaha This is why the world hates niggers. They can't survive without white people running their society. Their communities would implode. Ever wonder why Africa is such a shithole even though the rest of the world has running water, toilets, schools, effective police? The simplest answer is the correct one: Africans.

China contributes pretty nicely to some of what's happening in Africa. You might want to look that up.

I was watching a documentary with a Chinese guy trying to build a road in Africa. Every single person was trying to steal from him. The workers did not want to work. The supply of gravel was government controlled and there was no gravel for the roads because the black workers at the rock crushing place literally weren't even there for most of the day.

How the fuck are you going to blame China for that? Because of some propaganda about how they are "exploiting" the continent by extracting natural resources that otherwise would remain in the ground? That excuse comes from having the conclusion that if Africa is a shit hole it must be so because it is exploited by others, and all you have to do is get creative to "find" that exploitation. Then literally any bullshit claim of exploitation is accepted without question.

Africa was a shit hole before anyone ever set foot there. It is a shit hole in every corner of the continent that blacks rule. The only exceptions have ever been areas that were run by whites. When whites are over thrown those areas turn to shit. The common denominator is not any of the bullshit excused the left makes. Those bullshit excuses can never stand up to scrutiny, that is why the left needs to scream and censor. The only real common denominator is having a black power class. That common denominator translates around the world. Black run cities in the US are equally shitty when compared to white run cities.

There are other factors that come in to play to a small degree, but literally nothin is as universally consistent as black leadership, and a large black population.

Melanin doesn't cause poverty. Socialism does.

You make a good point. However, "melanin" as you put it, and socialism are strongly correlated. Especially if there is any diversity in your country or area because that will cause a wealth disparity between groups. That disparity will cause the poor to envy the rich and try to take their wealth by force. Which is, of course, the point of socialism.
