1. all the notorious ghettos of america are former industrial zones that attracted southern blacks. this migration of blacks caused white people to leave whole sections of the city but since the new blacks all had jobs, everything was ok. once the economy decided to send jobs away, there was nothing left and the government transitioned into managing the black population like open air prisons. the ghetto is a creation of policy. the people are warehoused there so they stay away from parts of chicago that everybody else wants. failing to decriminalize drugs means there will be a war over the black market because brehs are broke. chicago pd has also been accused of instigating gang beefs and picking and choosing winners in gang wars. mass incarceration policy actively brings low level hooligans into contact with hardened criminals in jail and prison and then turns them out with even worse job prospects and new criminal connections.1. How so?

In reference to Rayshard Brooks people are worried about firing cops that were actually (relatively) respectful and calm when interacting with Rayshard until he became violent, but Lupe hasn't heard a word on the 104 people that were shot over the weekend.
Imagine if every time you murdered somebody, your punishment was paid vacation and you had to move to another town where nobody knows what you did.fukk this dude.
For 1, Police brutality impacts me more because the Police are everywhere. Chicago violence is in Chicago.
2. These idiotic gangbangers will likely be thrown in general which is opposite what happens with the state thugs.
So disappointing in how stupid and unnuanced this motherfukker is
