Once while e driving thru an inner-city black neighborhood, a white friend expressed amazement that so many windows and doors had burglar bars.
He thought only white people need to protect their stuff from burglars; he’d never considered the possibility that criminals might target their own neighbors. He figured blacks are all on the same side and have some kind of unwritten rule not to commit crimes against other blacks.
The race hustlers make it about race because they make a good living at it. What it is really about is culture, societal norms, and opportunities to live a decent life.
