@Rochelle posted:You solve poverty you will solve crime. It’s as simple as that. Black Americans are not intentionally out here looking to commit crimes by virtue of their race. They mostly turn to a life of violence to survive, literally. They tell us go to school and get an education, but didn’t tell us the discrimination we have to face to find a decent paying job.
I can tell you many stories on how discrimination and poverty can impact a community. All I will say is, America has its benefits but also many many ills that even us foreigners have been subjected to. It’s a game we have to learn and play to not only survive but thrive.
Didn't a popular TV black actor tell them to get off their backside and stop feeling sorry for themselves, and to go look for jobs?
What did Obama do for them? All jobs are decent. You take what you can get until you can find decent-paying jobs. One that will give you enough money to feed your habits. (*drugs)
