So I guess those black lives don’t matter.  But you would care about those career criminals if they were shot by a cop. Until then they are easily dismissed, meaningless. But riots on their behalf after they get killed. But only by a cop. If anyone else kills them they won’t matter. Further proof of how full of shitt you people are. 

Wait, what? Where the hell did you get that from?

Fun Fact: I believe shoplifting should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law for all offenders.

However, I don't believe shoplifters should be shot by a cop for that crime if they are fleeing the scene to avoid arrest.

I think we can give each other more credit than this.  No, that's not quite was I was asking.  We all understand crime in general goes up as poverty does.  

More specifically, if it was just economics I'd expect this in other areas and communities with similar results, but it doesn't seem to be. It's also not in their neighborhoods, it's more commercial districts.   To me, something else is going on than simply shrugging it off as poor kids doing poor kid stuff. 

 

Well the reason I wrote “social and economic” is because it’s more complicated that just economics. But if you examine western history, for centuries, you find that crime occurs much more in poor urban areas than it does in poor rural areas, and that’s regardless of race. Obviously crowding is one reason.

Even poor people that don't help themselves?  Or all poor people?

And name 3 ways you like helping them. 

1.)
2.)
3.)

1. Charity. I give pretty generously. At least I try. 
2. Personal help when I can. 
3. This one will make you happy: I vote for politicians who will use your taxes to help poor people.

3. Not me.  I disagree there.  

My biggest problem is money that goes to people who are capable of pulling their own weight, but don't, simply because it's easier to get free stuff.

I understand. I was being a bit facetious on point 3. Although we do disagree there.

These thugs are indeed very likely part  of the poorest among us. And you’re quite correct that the poorest among us benefit more under Democratic policies. Which is one reason I prefer Democrats because I like helping poor people. 

You are always free to help them all YOU want with YOUR money.  What you like is helping them with MY money.

[peenie 1,915]

I’d rather see girls twerking on a police car than idiots shooting at each other with guns. Clearly, you’ve got a population of the lower class living separately than everyone else such that there is a large cultural divide. Not sure what to do about it but I’m not wasting my energy on behaviors that are just a little more than annoying. 
Crime is at an all time low. Stop trying to find something to be angry about. And for God’s sake can you please stop focusing on black people? Get a life. It’s beyond obsession.

 I had a guy, come in and blined it to the shoe department. My Bunny,senses started tingling. Sure enough, fawker turns the corner with a hefty bag completely full. The manager just happened to be there. I pointed and she waited till he went through the exit sensor and it went off. Fawker started running and the manager looked at me and said “No Bunny!!!” He gets into a brand new Infinity with no license plate and drives away. I shook my head to her. I have recently gone back into retirement. Can’t do it.

There are multiple wars going on. Maybe worry about our tax dollars funding wars that are killing innocent people rather than teenagers twerking on cars.

How did the Berlin Wall fail? There was mass migration from east to west?

It was built to restrain citizens from the East, and at that it was fairly effective.  It was also built to prevent penetration of western ideas.  At that, its most important mission, it failed miserably.
