Why is black crime so high?

[The Blue Elephant]

Yeah...large declines in crime over the past 20 years, and declines in Black incarceration rates for the last 10+ years (while white incarceration continues to increase).

Hmm pulled up the FBI table 43 from 2005. https://www2.fbi.gov/ucr/05cius/data/table_43.html

Almost identical murder rates for white/blacks as the previously posted.

The drug war.

Supplying people with illicit drugs can make people who have little education and opportunity rich, and without stuff like regulations and civil courts and the other things society puts into place to handle disputes, these guys shoot each other.

This is an excellent point regarding the unintended consequences of prohibition. We saw it during alcohol prohibition and we see it now during drug prohibition.

It's a large industry. But not one that allows disputes to be settled in the courts. If you have a competitor or supplier or customer that you feel has wronged you you cannot file suit against them, you pretty much have to resort to force. Often times that force will mean lethal force.

At the same time we give black communities grants for college and people feed victimization among the blacks with things like Black History month and other ****z. Also, what's the ****in deal with profiling when applying for a job when they ask you to write down what your race is? It's **** like this that feeds racism imo.
