    And they are the first ones to call BS on that claim.

    Many reasons. But the biggest most recent war on blacks was the war on drugs. That has created much of what we see today in the worst parts of the cities. I was there and watched it happen...right outta Compton.

    Not at all. In the late 20thC Black Americans were rapidly gaining on the middle class.

    Which is precisely why they had to be stopped.

    The war on drugs made drugs fantastically valuable. When a kid is faced with either being a victim of gangs and working for minimum wage, as opposed to joining a gang - that means having a "family" and protection - and making big bucks dealing drugs, the choice isn't very difficult. You join gangs for your survival. And the war on drugs drives the price of drugs, which makes it all possible and buys all the weapons.

    Ironically, the war on drugs is why gangs are often better armed than the cops.

    Check your stats and studies. It's true. Black Americans were making great gains in the second half of the 20thC. The pace of that has dramatically slowed this century.

    For obvious reasons.

    I have not looked it up but that would include white and latinos and blacks and some asian and arabic peoples. The majority of Americans are Christians..

    I don't have an opinion. I just questioned the source of yours.

    I remember some years ago in a black neighborhood "run" by Black Muslims, some kids were being a "problem". So the BM's took the kids some 20 miles out of town and dumped them and let them find their own way home.
    Man, did the bleep hit the fan from whitey! Everything from kidnapping to child abuse and threat of prison to the BM's involved.
    Funny. Not a soul asked "How are the kids today?"
    Sometimes a figurative ass kicking by the adults in charge is a good thing if it results in a positive change in behavior.

    I have 0 problems mocking racists and bigots.

    They deserve it and more. I have no respect for them as a human being, and no other possible redeeming quality makes up for it.

    That's great except the example in question was mocking no such person it was just pretending to.

    Do you have a problem with all racist or only the white ones?

    Not that I disbelieve this but it is interesting. Do you have a link you can share, assuming the Internet hasn't been scrubbed.

    Because eighty percent of black children are born out of wedlock to promiscuous women, and grow up without Fathers to teach and guide them in the right way. And each succeeding generation becomes more coarse, immoral, dependent, thankless and angry.
