Other factors can mitigate, high employment and low inequality, religion, a police state. But overall it, and esp. inequality, are the best correlations.Quote from BSAM:
You're in a losing trade, brother Ricci.
Cut your losses quickly.
Poverty, in and of itself, has nothing to do with violence.
Regarding Hoof's statement about Russian violence, not long ago a neighborhood in Russia was named one of the top 10 most violent in the world. Are they wealthy there? No. But they are unequal, and have the Russian mafia.

LOL...What the hell are you trying to say, Ricci???
This ain't babble land.
Listen to me...you know I won't steer you wrong and I speak very clearly.
Poverty, in and of itself, does not cause violence.
The best people I have ever known were poor people.
And, they didn't go around stealing and killing.
They had real, hard working lives and they were dedicated to their family.
Correlations my ass.
Immorality and environment = mixed up violent person.
Pretty simple, yet comprehensive equation.
Easy to understand.
Nice anecdote.Quote from BSAM:

Quote from AAAintheBeltway:
If these were white people doing the shooting, say neo nazis, the mayor and governor of Illinois would have put the National Guard in there by now, maybe Obama would have sent the Army to lock it down.
Since it is ghetto blacks, they try to ignore the problem and blame it on lack of welfare spending.
There is an insurrection going on in Chicago. Parts of the city are now under the effective control of gangs. Ditto for Detroit, Flint, etc. The government's first repsonsibility is to ensure publicn safety and maintain order. They have failed spectacularly in that responsibility.
It is quite clear that you can never solve these economic problems when people are afraid to drive through an area, much less open a business there.
And I can imagine what America would be like if Onazi actually got his way with his gun control/confiscation.:eek: We'd basically make Syria and Egypt look like baby shit.
And yes, if these were whites doing all this killing, I agree, there would be national guard troops patrolling the streets, and Onazi would be on tv constantly doing his gun grab shit.
