I point that first out to lefties all the time, that blacks bear the brunt of high black crime rates. They largely completely ignore it.

I'll bet they're not black lefties. Blacks of every political persuasion know better. They've lived it.

That still doesn't help most blacks to see that the root cause of the degraded state of the black community is liberalism/socialism. Most continue to believe that the community needs more help from Uncle Sugar to heal itself.

You can even point out to them that Billions have been spent on the so-called "War on Poverty" with no corresponding rise in the quality of life for blacks, and they'll just look at you like you're speaking Martian.

I've given up trying to talk sense into my family members. They're grown people. If they can't think their way out of a paper bag, then I'm sorry for them. I've just used up too much gas going down that road to try anymore.
