Social change. Uh...we’ve had social change. I’m old enough to remember lynchings, little to no educational opportunities, when no one would hire a black person, when black people could not rent or own a home, etc. This society has changed. If it hadn’t, we wouldn’t have Dr. Carson, Col. West and so many others who took advantage of the opportunities they were given and escaped from poverty and hard lives.
These folks aren’t interested in the hard work and perseverance needed to get ahead. They want everything handed to them. And what isn’t handed to them, they’ll steal.
i am to,but there was very little black crime back then.
There is the class of hard-working, law-abiding blacks. Then there is the Black Underclass. Virtually all crimes and financial drains on society from black Americans are from the BU. Mike Brown was a member of the BU. He had a chance to join the rest of American society and make a contribution. In a one awful afternoon, he threw it all away.
