It's definitely not anything inherent to people who happen to be black. However, as you pointed out so well, NO was a "racially-charged plantation-welfare state" where black people had been told for years that they were not individuals, they were simply part of an aggrieved group known as "blacks" which, in turn, was wholly owned by the Democratic Party.

One way to turn people into animals is to take away their individual responsibility and give them a group name as their self-definition. There's no moral component to it, as we well saw - where some rioters even stated in interviews that they saw it as an opportunity for "the black man to get back" at the rest of the world. That's the product of a political culture of that has latched onto race as a handy way of identifying and controlling a power bloc.
