If you can not acknowledge the facts, you can not solve the problem.

Some in Indianapolis get quite unhappy with anyone who notices the mobs are made up exclusively of black people:

“Why do white people assume they are better than everyone?” said one anonymous poster. “You guys are no better than anyone and you need to get off your d*** high horse it’s 2013 get over the racist bulls***. This is why American whites are so hated.”

Deborah Bova says, “It infuriates me that racial slurs are slung; the mall kids are all out of control and nothing about color or ethnicity is necessary.”

Donald Walker says that anyone who reports on the racial quality of the violence is a “racist jerk. Nowhere in the article did it say those involved in the fight were black. You just assumed it because white kids would never get in a fight. I’m so sick of suburban self-righteousness I could puke.”

Eyewitness accounts and even the limited videos from local news stations would not agree with Walker.

It is not the assumptions of white suburban propriety that cause people to point out that these mobs are exclusively black. It is the fact that these mobs are exclusively black.

Since the mobs are made up of one racial group, it makes sense to look at the pathologies in that racial community to find out what is causing this problem. It makes no sense to look at suburban whites if they are not involved. It would be like investigating Southern Blacks when the Ku Klux Klan went out burning crosses in the bad ol' days.

As long as people make excuses for thuggery, thuggery will continue. Because, absent swift and certain punishment, people will riot because rioting is fun and profitable. If these people are not going to constrain themselves, the law is going to have to do the job.

I saw this problem in schools during the '60s. Just one group of youths exercising their "equal" rights. Then another demographic of youths decided they has "equal rights", too.

High School was more like the Watts riots than American Grafitti, but the real objective was achieved: no one got an education worth a crap out of that mess.

How long until a different demographic decides they have "equal rights" again?

Count the days until there is a mass shooting in self-defense (and all the security video is 'lost').

we have never had a flash mob of white kids in any of the malls around me, ever.

we have had flash mobs of black kids at a mall one mile away from me, and our state fair a couple years ago. we’ve lost malls in the area due to black gang violence.

historical evidence is hard to refute.
