I can imagine people were worried as hell back then. I see why they were pushing politicians to do something and the 94 crime bill had so much support.
Oh, GTFOH
When Italians, Jews, and the Irish lived in those conditions, they killed each other by the thousands.
What did you think that Al Capone, Meyer Lansky, and all them were killing each other about.
Prohibition + Capitalism = Crime
If you dangle millions of dollars in front of people who are starving and have never had anything, it causes murder.
It did in the 1920s and it does today.
The difference is, the government ENDED alcohol prohibition, so they could end White on White crime, but has ramped up the "War on Drugs", specifically BECAUSE it causes Black on Black crime in Amerikkka and Mexican on Mexican crime in Mexico and in border towns.
Mexico blames Amerikkka for the crazy murder rates they have, because our "War on Drugs" empowers drug cartels, which OUR government funded.
Oh it's yo ass again.
In ALL races, young men do what will get them p*ssy.
If being good in school got you p*ssy, dudes would do better in school.
Simple as that. This aint no Black thing or no White thing, this is a real thing.
That's why White dudes be wearing baggy jeans to their asses trying to impress White bytches. Same shyt.
Stop it, the Kennedy Administration didn't fund Nicaraguan drug cartels to flood inner cities with dope.
The "War on Drugs" started by Nixon and ramped up by Reagan are what caused homicide rates to sky-rocket in the '70s and '80s.
Crack was SOLELY the product of the Amerikkkan government agent Oscar Danillo Blandon and his Nicaraguan folks teaching "Freeway" Ricky Ross how to make crack and how to sell it
Bullshyt.
Crime started going down almost 2 years BEFORE Giuliani got into office in New York City. The last years under Dinkins saw a crime drop
AND
Crime went down EVERYWHERE in Amerikkka at the same time it did in New York City, even in places that didn't ramp up it's crime prevention techniques like San Francisco which had a bigger crime drop than New York City did.
ALSO
Crime went down in other Western countries at the same time it did in Amerikkka, which completely deads the whole "Giuliani saved New York" bullshyt.
All Giuliani did is make it okay to harass Blacks and poor people
Man, people today talk about why folks didn't keep their spot in DC and moved out to the burbs. shyt was rough back then. Spots that cacs gentrified today were wilding the fukk out in the 80s and 90s H street, Columbia Heights, Georgia Ave, Trinidad and Shaw.
Back in those days the only "safe" spots in DC were west of Rock Creek Park where all the cacs were holed up. shyt even Southeast is somewhat safer now than it was back in them days.
If this thread were made in 2017 people would've mentioned biden or the 94 crime bill at least 20 times by page 5

People who didn't live through it don't understand how different shyt was back then. Crime was fukkin ridiculous.I can imagine people were worried as hell back then. I see why they were pushing politicians to do something and the 94 crime bill had so much support.
Did y'all support Reagan's crime bills in the 80s or Nixon starting the "War on Drugs" in the '70s?
Crime was at an all-time high then too.
Or do you only support Democrats mass incarcerating Black people

Reagan's war on drugs is how we talked about the fukked up shyt that went on in the 90s for decades.
No one dog piled onto the crime bill until Hillary ran for president and they used that against her even though her husband was the one that pushed it.
Then it was attached to biden when he ran.
That's just a history of the discourse of it and this thread is just a nice little time capsule to support what I said.
