It’s violent blacks that cause the bulk of the violent crime in the country. It’s not “racism” structural or otherwise. It’s not “climate change”, or “white supremacy”.

What do they attribute the violence in countries that are majority black and are run by blacks? Are they saying that the black rulers are “racist” towards the blacks they govern?

The study found that in areas with higher Black populations, mass shootings are likelier to occur compared to communities with higher White populations.

They don't realize what they wrote....

Sixty years, and they go through ever more mental gymnastics to explain black underperformance, in ways that absolves blacks from having to do anything to change themselves.

This is how the Left has viewed blacks going back to slavery days. The "great society" reinforced this mindset that blacks were too dumb or lazy to do things on their on.

Is structural racism also responsible for "teens" tearing up fast food restaurants because their order was wrong?

In a way it is.....except, it's driven by breakdown of the family caused by the failed "great society" which effectively doomed the black community.

And it's being further reinforced today through the bigotry of low expectations in the school system and elsewhere.

Again, using the bogus definition that IGNORES motive and intention.

True “mass murders” or shootings are MEANT to deliberately hurt multiple, RANDOM people, as opposed to ‘hood violence which usually is targeted and simply carelessly fires into crowds just to get the victims they truly want. They don’t care if it’s a crowd or just those targets, and they are bad shots who just “accidentally” shoot others happening to be in the way.

This is very different from those who deliberately intend to shoot multiple people, usually at a single location and usually regardless of who it is. Just where it is is the most important.

“Structural racism” = “White people bad,” but that’s not racism.

It’s real simple

Stay in school

Stay off drugs

Stay out of fights and gangs and illegal activities

Get a job, show up on time, and learn as much as you can.

It is...except blacks are encouraged to not act white and learn...that means stay out of school.

Rappers glorify drugs and hoes....that negates the stay off drugs

Gangs are glorified in black culture.

The "great society" discouraged working as does modern Leftist thinking.

As Shapiro said it's not the skin....it's the culture.

LOL

total BS

Everyone, regardless of race, is always most at risk from violence from someone they know.

Most white people will do nearly anything to stay away from people of any race that they deem might do violence against them or their families. They will commute an hour to work and pay outrageous sums to private schools and other things to keep their families away from violent people that liberals let run rampant in their neighborhoods.

Many blacks are not the same and CHOOSE to live in areas surrounded by people who will almost certainly do them or their children grave harm, and vote for people who wont do anything about it. Segregation ended over 60 years ago.

Most killing is by people who know each other. Whites know more whites. Hispanics know Hispanics. Blacks know Blacks.

Amazing number of murders and near murders are boyfriend v ex. Best friend gets drunk and does stupid.

A city has a 1,000 murders. Not more that 2 events per week hit the media. The media selectively reports some and not others.

When I was in inner city Chicago there were 7 murders on my block in 1 year. None were covered by the media. At the same time there were murders/assasinations of political anti-macine activist friends of mine. The media did not cover those those murders either.

The media is selective in its news...news about murder, news about politics, news about the economy, news about the weather, news that impacts their advertisers.
