Keep waiting on getting paid.
The ADOS movement is making headway. I’m not ADOS, so I’m not looking to get paid. But plenty of ADOS are putting in the work to make reparations a reality. You should join the movement.
There's a lead water / lead paint argument being floated around that is definitely a fake excuse.
Doubt that a single person here believes that lead water is responsible for the homicide rate in any city.

My point about a relative being hit is that if that day comes, the laundry list of excuses for why the guman fired will be balled up and thrown in the trash.
Nobody here is going to speak to the judge before sentencing and make excuses for the suspect.
Who’s going before the judge and doing that now? If anything, some of the root causes of black on black violence is retaliatory violence for previous murders against friends, family and or loved ones. Black people are straight up killing each other and aren’t giving each other pass nor are they caring about excuses. The worst part, innocent ppl are getting got on the crossfire of retaliatory/vigilante street justice. That’s what a huge chunk of this is. Ppl who see no wrong in picking up a gun, and shooting the guy who shot their people. No peace, no white flags, no mercy, just revenge. Both sides think their exterminating the opps for the greater good of their hood.

Don’t know if you will get negged for this. But I completely agree. Regardless of where you came from adults know better. This type of shyt destroys our children and the hard working families that despite living in the hood live honest hard working lives. But @Barnett114 you right they younger than they use to be unfortunately

I’ll just say this. As a human being, once you callously take a life without regard, you’ve crossed a threshold, and there’s no turning back. Can some be salvaged?

Ok and let me say this respectfully and am only speaking hypothetically. But let’s say the person who murdered the 8 year old girl. Because I made it a point to say i am not generalizing crime or those who commit crimes or murders. Specifically a certain type of murderer that I believe to be a extreme deviation of most crimes committed. Whether intentional or extreme recklessness.. I put that man in the exact same regard as a pedophile or rapist.

If he was a child I would not hold him as accountable as an adult. Because again adults know right from wrong. I’m from a low income community and As a child I was reckless, but when I became an adult I had to be responsible and accountable. But if someone in Atlanta dealt with him, they are not now in his level. They have not passed a place of no return. That individual who killed that little girl will end someone else’s life. And potentially a innocent one.

If someone takes his life they are doing the community a service. You have not became the same monster as him for caring about your community and taking a child murderer off the street. I am only speaking on these type of criminals once more. I think these are extreme cases that are not the majority.

I am not inciting violence, please don’t get me wrong. What I’m saying is there is nothing wrong with it. Taking child murderers and pedophiles or rapist off the streets. I’m speaking on the people who do that. I respect it. But I’m in Atlanta and know it’s people looking for him that don’t like this. And nobody is going to feel they have done anything other than a service to the community. So in no way is this a but where does the buck stop rebuttal. I gave specific examples

Fixed that for you.
Yep. Very true. My point still stands though. Black on Black crime is black on black crime. Retaliatory violence instead of turning the other cheek. Someone close to you gets killed, you pick up a weapon and kill them or someone close to them. That’s what’s happening in these neighborhoods. It’s not random. You may have innocent ppl get caught in the crossfire, and you may have robberies gone wrong, but for the most part it’s cyclical retaliatory violence. That’s what gang bangin is. And most of the violence in Chicago is gang related.

BX, NYC
the effects of lead poisoning have about a 22 year arch before the effects are seen. It’s widely believed that the stark drop in the crime rate in NYC has less to do with policies and being tough on crime, but has a direct correlation to when the NYC health department attacked the lead problem head on.
Pray for Flint.
And again like I said I think it’s deeper than lead. And a lot of things were happening in correlation with the lead issues at the same time.

Tell me how NYC has averaged 280-300 murders a year in a city of 8M in the 2010’s with the deplorable conditions of the NYCHA/Section 8 system with lead and tons of other environmental issues. Plenty of people grow up in these same lead contaminated environments and are not violent.

I haven’t dismissed lead it’s just more than that.
