If you think it is relevant, I'd love to hear how. What is it about being a member of a certain race that makes them loot? I can't wait to hear it.

Culture and what they have been taught or not taught. There culture is racist as any other and more than most. When you are taught not believe in schools and that it is OK to steal because your ancestors have been oppressed and that you are entitled you are in fact racist. You need to spend a week in the hood and see how you are treated and what they really think.

Quite the opposite. I've been asking the same question all damn day. "How is it relevant?" I believe it to be irrelevant--because it is.

Now, if they're born in abject poverty and/or their dad isn't around to raise them to be a man and/or their schools are disaster areas and/or their parent(s) are drug users and/or they face a disadvantage because some people look at them and see a criminal and/or their friends are thugs . . . .

If one or more of those things ARE true, it might help to explain criminal behavior. Morality is learned. What happens to the person with no one to teach them?
