Blacks are only 13% of the country’s population but commit 50% of the violent crime.
Would be nice if they didn’t ...but it is what it is.

What is the proportion of drivers, by race, playing “music” loudly?

I’m sure it’s not like they are doing anything to garner attention...

“The music is always crap too.”

Grade C rap?

Maybe because a certain demographic likes to BLAST their music?
We live in a nice quiet rural neighborhood just outside of a small Midwestern town. Well, it WAS quiet until a “diverse” family moved in two years ago.
Overnight, our quiet area was ruined. We were now treated to rap music blasting from their cars and their house. Their “diverse” friends who dropped by also cranked their car stereos. We’re talking volume so loud that it rattled the windows of our house.
After countless complaints from nearby residents for two years, they have finally toned things down after paying numerous fines for violating noise ordinances. Why does this certain demographic have to be FORCED to be considerate of other people’s feelings?

Some years ago, a Colorado jurisdiction forced those convicted of playing loud music from their cars to sit in a room and listen to classical music. I would make this guy listen for a couple-three hours to Bob Wills, Hank Williams, Kitty Wells and Patsy Montana.

It is amazing how many problems would go away if people would simply demonstrate some common courtesy towards those sitting next to them at traffic lights

ANy substantiating information to indicate this rate is out of proportion to the total number of folks pushing the bass?
Yeah, I didn’t think so...

“Black drivers received almost 37% of the tickets, despite Black people making up only about 16% of Florida’s driving-eligible population.”

Suggesting what exactly? Tickets should be given proportionately rather than by violation? FU.

No. He is entertaining his customers and advertising his business.

Urban blacks are more likely to have ‘boom cars’ than anyone else. Thus the tickets.

And here’s some advice from Chris Rock for these people:
