Different households of course.
Different personal affinities towards crime.
Potentially broken homes.
Forced gang initiation/affiliation
And some, not all, some people just want to be criminals.
The problem with this is, it also ignores how policing can be dubious, where we have not only corrupt
police officers but a climate which legitimizes their violence and/or questionable application of the law.
Many, many lives have been completely destroyed and normal people have become institutionalized because
of how we architect our drug & gun laws.
Again, that's the problem, by asking Why doesn't everybody become a criminal ? you excuse and legitimize
the governments INACTION when people NEED IT and their ACTION when it's time to harass, jail & ostracize.
A perfect example of this is "Stop & Frisk", that shyt as a policing method fukking failed miserably but as a method
to intimidate, harass, bully and eventually jail young Black & Brown men, it worked wonderfully.
And guess what ?
Support came in droves from people because "Those blacks and browns have a DEGENERATE culture and the let their GANGSTA SONS do WHATEVER THEY WANT !"
is a mentality not just espoused on TheColi but daily offline.
Can you prove the bold?
