Then what exactly have I said that you disagree with?
Real simple, I can break down the original post...
1. Purposefully dividing the people who look like you?
2. Killing other blacks and not getting a dime or a pat on the back from the white supremacists who allow legislation leading to those circumstances
3. Automatically having issues with someone cause of the color they wear
4. I don't get why in 2016 gang members still are seen as "hard" by some of y'all
5. don't sit here and try to exaggerate the family aspect of gangs, I understand a lot of gang members come from broken families looking for acceptance. My point is that same acceptance can be gained from an all black frat, HBCUS.. something, ANYTHING more productive than gang life.
---------------------
1. Gangs usually work within the communities they are started in, it is more likely they will target people similar to them. If a Russian gang starts in a Russian neighborhood, they will most likely target other Russians.
2. I find it hard to believe most gangs are practicing actual genocide, it might look like that to someone who doesn't understand but see my first point.
3. Yes I agree, that is silly but it isn't the sole factor for gang on gang violence, you know this.
4. I believe the people that still think gang members are hard are in the minority on this site, most people here are educated individuals. I could be wrong though.
5. This point was touched in the link I quoted, most do find other outlets in life besides joining a gang but the reasons for joining gangs aren't exaggerated at all. I don't know you but I want you to go back to when you were entering your teenage years, most teenagers are highly susceptible and they don't know better. You can't expect everyone to think or know better in these situations. This was also explained in that link, most of these kids are picked up are a young age for that very reason. And not every grown individual knows better. It doesn't always come down to helping your entire race thrive, it mainly comes down to helping yourself and the people closest to you. Some people only have the gang members they grew up or profited with. I mean it's a lot more complex than just that but I don't know if I want to spend anymore time typing this out. lol
