How I defending them all because I asked you, what are u going to do about it? Plus these nikkas are in the hood...as long as u raise ur kids out of the hood, you don't have shyt to worry about. Do you stay in Illinois? Are u planning to move to Chicago? So why are u worrying about protecting ur kids if u don't live in Chicago?

If crime and poverty didnt exist in America, the government will still use ur money for stupid shyt.

Your so myopic its sad. If people are killing each other without abandon, it does nothing but add to the public debt load when they have to pay for the police department, health costs, and welfare costs of a large swathe of people who are simply destroying themselves. I know its cute to feel the "hood" is some isolated far away place, but the shyt affects each and every member of the surrounding community. Just putting your head in the sand and pretending the problem doesn't exist because it makes you uncomfortable doesn't make the problem go away.

im not even from chicago but your missing my point, you expect your typical hoodrat mother of 3 who is under 25 without a whip and is basically living off of welfare to pack up and move to another state away from family and friends and different welfare qualifications?

You pose this question as if its some impossible task. There are poor africans swimming in the Medtierranean right now in search of a better existence.

Sometimes in order to succeed in life you have to step out of your comfort zone.

This reminds me a few years ago there was a kid in Milwaukee that got killed from a stray bullet. There was a upcry and a candle light vigil from people in the neighborhood. Fast forward two weeks later on the same part of town a stray dog was lit on fire in an alley and survived. White people came from all parts of the city and suburbs to participate in a candle lite vigil for a fukking dog. It was on the news like it was some sort of big breakthrough. shyt was disgusting and a real eye opener. Don't act like Blacks aren't the only ones that don't value other Blacks lives.

Well this is obvious breh. Remember BLACK FOLK USED TO BE CONSIDERED PROPERTY. Black lives have always been undervalued in this country. The problem today however is this same mentality has been ingrained into the minds of black people as well. When you have a group of people that hate themselves, it becomes easier to kill each other without impunity. Ideally a strong family base and counteract this, but with the deplorable state of the black family in America today its no surprise that the self-hatred mentality that Malcom fought so hard to counteract has now taken over the psyche of the average black male.

I blame our failed African-American leaders for not properly guiding black people in this psychologically damaging American environment.
