To be sure, you could point out that other cities with large black populations, including NYC, LA, Jacksonville FL and Dallas TX also have as much or higher percentage of blacks than San Francisco and are not really in that much worse shape than San Francisco. I do think with Detroit and Birmingham, there are other factors, off the charts corruption perhaps being another key factor.

I agree that much of it is poorly written/assembled, but there is much good information to be found there that the MSM will not touch. The comments section is very rough, i.e., full of white racial animus against blacks. But having lived in 3 southern states my whole life, his historical research has been very enlightening especially with regards to Atlanta and Birmingham.
The MSM is reporting today that violent crime is rising again after a ~ 20 year slumber, presumably due to demographic trends, especially a rise in 15-35 year-olds, the prime criminal age group. No doubt this will feed into the rising racial tensions which many of us here on FR attribute to POTUS #44 BHO.
My maternal grandparents, neither finished high school, were farmers in their 50-s in rural Alabama during the 1960s. They hired black farm hands for labor. I clearly remember them watching the news on television of MLK-Jr travelling all around the nation preaching civil rights only to have race riots erupt after he left a city. They predicted the day would come when a race war would engulf the U.S.
Yes, the Paul Kersey handle was taken on for a reason.
Great column by Dr. Sowell. He mentioned White Girl Bleed a Lot: The return of racial violence and how the media ignore it.
Great book. Tons of great stories. I heard Rush Limbaugh talk about it on the radio the other day and he said the author of White Girl spoke without racism. Without rancor. And that is true.
I think that is why it is being so well received. must read.

That settles it. Thomas Sowell ain’t really black. He don’t understand the black experience.
An amusing news item this morning in Baltimore: a black student at a majority black college is claiming that he has been rejected by a fraternity because he is gay.
This is one of the top stories on the every-half-hour news and the local rag’s website.
Poor fellow, he can’t blame his rejection on his color, so he goes for the next ‘victim’ status. Maybe he should just examine his personality.
