TweetThe reason it drives me nuts is: if I make a mistake, I take the blame for it. I don't go and point the finger at someone else.

Tweethappens in the bad parts of pittsburgh all the time. Im not racist in anyway either but the black community where the penguins are building their new areana wants a certain percentage of profits bc its "in their neighborhood". They also wanted a percentage of parking etc....i mean come on what is that?

Tweetdont think I should get in on this one but I think its an economic thing more than anything else. Crack is prevalent in black communities that are impovrished and meth is prevelent in white communities that are impovrished. Some hip hop is shit two step clap beat glorifying shit garbage but there is some hip hop that is just "telling in like it is" so to speak so cant say Id have issue with that. Jay Z, em, pac, etc great shit!!!!!
Has anyone on here ever seen the wire on HBO. really good look at this issue. Its a cops and bad guys show but really high quality honest look at baltimore md and the horrible poverty and crime that city deals with and how pretty much all parties involved (schools, white, black, politicians, cops, drug dealers) are all at fault
I just wish they would stop worrying about roids (hormones found naturally in our bodies ) and put all that money and manpower on this kinda bullshit

TweetHappens all the time near where I live. Two nights ago there were for shootings in the same city within in 4 hr time frame....
Tweetyou change this with education reform. like brock said this is a product of the economy and education then anything else. same goes for welfare. you force people to take responsibility for their actions and they will till then they will continue to blame somebody else.
TweetI would love to popped a few people in my life - -- ex's - you name it - - BUT IT WOULD ALL BE ME!
NOT ANYONE ELSE - - JUST BE RESPONSIBLE!

TweetWell, in the city where I live the mayor is black, the chief of police is black as is most of the force. The city itself is about 60% black. Everyone blames everyone else but they're all black so I guess that's progress for ya. I live in a Southern city, so there have obviously been racial problems in the past. I guesss whitey has gotten the fuck out so he can't be blamed any longer.
TweetWhere I'm from, New Orleans, LA., black on black murder was always higher than white on white or black on white. As I've recently heard, N.O. is once again leading the country in murder rate.
Speaking as a member of the black community, I'd have to say that our worst habit is not only blaming everyone but ourselves for this matter. But we are taught by our peers to never rat on one another. And it's not just on the streets but I've noticed this with my fellow officers when I was in LE years ago. A true black person will not snitch on another black person, regardless. If they do, they lose all respect and trust from everyone else.
TweetI understand what you're saying, but what I can't understand is if someone sees/knows another person commit a serious crime, how can they just sit there and not report it.
In my city the black community is understandably upset about all the black on black crime, but what is mind-blowing is that someone is keeping information that would help find a killer.
They protest that the city needs to do something. How can any form of government control human nature? If I go out and kill someone, and lets say a family member knows that I did it, they need to come forward and tell the cops. If they keep this information, they're just as guilty as I am.
