I agree but starting with Jesse jackson, and now with Al Sharpton, it has been drilled into the black communities' heads over and over and over again, that they are victims of "the man" (translation: the white man, the police, the government). So, without a contrasting narrative or lessons learned, they feel like they are victims by default. Until the Sharptons and Jacksons are yanked off the stage of race relations, nothing will change except the violence will probably increase.

Personally, I'm glad my wife and I retired and moved to rural country to live. We have little to no risk of interaction with these thugs in our daily lives. People might say we are lucky. I prefer to think of it it as by design. The heavy populated urban centers is where all of this violence and protesting is happening. We don't see any protestors out here on the farm protesting mistreatment of our all black Angus beef cattle. :-)
