Watch Florida sheriff David Morgan edumacate about "black culture"

Your reasoning is still flawed.

Assuming your stats are correct for the sake of argument, black children are 3x more likely to be born into poverty and yet they are 8x-40x more likely to commit all manner of crime, including heinous, violent crime. Why the disparity?

If what you are saying is true, we should profile poor people... and yet we don't. Why not? The reason is that a lot of poor cultures are not lawless cultures. Not all cultures produce young males with a wanton, capricious attitude towards violence. It's difficult to admit, but the black community does.

The black community may not "support thugs" directly, but it doesn't have to. No group has to support their worst elements. They merely have to do nothing and look the other way and that's pretty much what has been going on for at least 50 years.

This is about "poverty" or "lack of education" (although those are all problems). This is about black culture. It sucks. It produces violent young men and until we declare war on black culture and label it what it is: self-destructive, divisive, disorderly, ignorant, and uncivil then we can't solve this problem. Until African-Americans of conscience join the rest of the sane world in rejecting "blackness", then we will never solve this problem.

By continuing to make excuses for a wretched, dysfunctional culture, we harden the hearts of people who have been told for generations that if they were just brave and tolerant, that things would get better. Things aren't getting better. They're getting worse and if this goes on long enough those people are going to demand legal protections for "white flight" and eventually cultural and political separation.
