“What a sad commentary on the current state of urban black culture.”
I think that you also have to blame the “war on drugs” for some of this. It’s turned the cops into an occupation force and put a lot of black men in jail for a long time that really shouldn’t have. That plus the history of harassment (black while driving, etc) has turned the black community against the cops. Sure the breakdown of the black family (encouraged by welfare and other liberal social programs) has made things even worse as young men raised by women will have very little respect for authority.
Looks like the perfect storm is on the horizon, all we need is a spark to light it off and that won’t be fun for anyone.
You’re just blame-shifting.
There wouldn’t be an increased presence of cops if there weren’t an increase in crime first.
