    If you did a map of where the most 5g towers are, or McDonalds, or Starbucks, the map would look about the same as the one in the OP.

    I lived in an inner city neighborhood in a DP ruled city but currently live in a rural area.

    It was during the 20 years that I lived in the 'hood that I had my defensive gun use experiences .

    The city government, of course, blames "the guns" and the wicked, evil and greedy White devil oppressor for all the city's problems.

    Thanks,

    true-black males are responsible for about half the murders in the USA. they also tend to be the largest source of murder victims. It's been awhile since I looked at all the statistics but black females compared to white females do not have the same massive difference in percentages as black males to white males. So race is not the only factor, obviously

    could be, that seems to be more prevalent in big cities, maybe we can fund public transportation to the suburbs

    This area of majority poor whites share the same zip code as majority poor blacks...the two areas line up. In otherwards...we are all in the city.

    Disarming the black American community has been a high priority for the DP since they learned how effective freedmen infantry units were during the Civil War.
    Armed black Americans will restore the peace in their communities instantly as soon as they are allowed to carry concealed handguns.

    Where are the father's?
    And what proof do you have it's your 1 issue.

    Since you work with white kids.
    Does that mean it's a melanin issue?

    Unfortunately that is mostly not relevant to this discussion. Now, of course if there were many areas with a large percentage of one gender in than another, than it would be a factor.
    The county I'm in is considered to have a "large" gender imbalance, with 3% more females than males. But that's still not really a big enough number to have a visible effect on crime differentials on a map.

    It's off-topic, and I don't have any statistics to back this up, but I'd guess that white men are statistically more likely to commit murder than black females.

    It's a culture issue. Proof of what? That children in intact families with a father and mother in the home are at less risk for gang involvement? You actually need a link for that?

    I need a link to show melanin would be the issue.
    You claim it's culture. But you said you work with white kids in similar situations.
    But they don't join gangs.
    But black kids do.
    What culture is different?

    Separate topic but I think there is some interplay between culture and genetics. Culture can perpetuate itself, have an effect on others, but a culture in any group or society is also shaped by genetics. It's a big part of the reason the crime rate for young black kids are lower when their parents move to a nearly all white neighborhood, and also the reason why sometimes white kids can get mixed up into trouble when there are many black kids around (like on a high school football team). The statistics show when you take a black teen and separate them from other black teens, the statistical probability of them getting into trouble goes way down.
    (Now, I think it might not be healthy or overall a good thing to separate black teens from other black teens, and I'm not advocating it, but just using the observation to try to make a point)

    And if I'm going off topic and bringing up a separate hot-button issue, I don't think that's my fault, that's your fault, dairyair.

    If you compare those other nations murder rate to the murder rate of whites only in the US, we have about the same rate.
