Hood Code - Sign of a Broken Culture

[Fife]

Indeed. We could cite a number of statistics from single-parent homes to incarceration rates to welfare reliance to demonstrate precisely how broken poor black urban culture is.

The thing that the excuse-makers continually fail to observe, in their fervor *not* to condemn a broken culture, is that blacks aren’t enduring any unique pressure that other communities are not.

Plenty of gang-infested poor Latino neighborhoods. Try blasting a teen girl in broad daylight and skipping down the road unimpeded there, see how it goes.

Plenty of drug saturated poor White neighborhoods. Try blasting a teen girl in broad daylight and skipping down the road unimpeded there, see how it goes.

The fact that all poor Americans living in ghetto urban areas deal with the same shit, but only one group will shelter active child murderers from being apprehended by police, is precisely what makes it a cultural issue.

The single-mother thing is on women in general, not a particular race. That's what women have done to our culture. No-fault divorce. Broken homes. Alienated fathers. Social and personal decay. Blacks are just a few generations ahead. The children of millennials in particular are going to be just like the young adult blacks today who are burning down cities. More than half of millennials households are single-mothers, and many of them have children to multiple fathers. It's really, really fucked up out there, guys.

LOL you think they’re protecting the killer because of loyalty???

This is the same as the NY/Chicago gangsters in the 20s. You don’t say anything, or you’re next on the list. It has nothing to do with culture, it’s fear.

They know that the gangsters are in control, not the police.

So you'd let a guy murder one of your kids and then stonewall the cops because "gangsters are in control"?

Maybe you would.

Just means you sympathize with hood culture.

I'm pretty sure 99.9% of the rest of the forum would be trying to get to the perp and kill them before the police had a chance to take the killer into custody.

And honestly, that kind of situation is advantageous to everyone. Police catching him will just ensure a lot of taxpayer money being spent on the perp, with the opportunity for him to come right back

It’s obviously because of culture that Mexicans don’t stand up and testify about gang murders. Their own fault really.

You are comparing a broken country like Mexico to the US. This is why you are an idiot. You think Mexico is some spring break hot spot for rich American teens, a place to get your gardener. No, bitch. It's elections season in Mexico and over the past few months drug cartels have killed 87 elected officials or candidates for elected office in the country, not even south LA is that bad. We have violent gangs but they are fucking drug cartels. I know this disrupts your open border we ones collapsing fantasia, but it is true. They are not the same, you are just a pacifist, pussy dumb ass.

Wow, I’m blown away. Never knew we had such a gang of hardened killers on this forum.

See, if I was worried about my family’s safety if I reported crimes to the police, I may give it some thinking.

I may ponder if the 15 year old girl was a gang member herself. I may ponder if she was the same kind of person as those who shot her.

I may ponder if my family’s safety is worth me taking a stand for a stranger. I may weigh that against the fact that the last time I was willing to sacrifice for my community I got blown up in a Humvee and get $100 a month for my fucked up spine. And a couple pretty ribbons of course.

But nope, you hard core mother fuckers revealed me for the pussy I really am. Ya’ll wouldn’t even consider any of that shit.

Who do you think is running South Central LA?

I'm sure the hamburger stand was exclusively attended by gang members and disabled vets.
That seems so much more likely than a broken culture with numerous examples of stonewalling the police.

Congrats hero, you found another completely unfeasible excuse to ignore the broken culture and instead correlate your war injury to an imaginary scenario where everyone at a hamburger stand is under the thrall of murderous gangbangers.

The lengths some of you will go to, truly amazing. Story, after story, after story of both police and blacks referencing the code of the streets (aka 'no snitch' code), but it's all imaginary to you guys. Nope. Not a part of their culture. They don't know what they're talking about. Only you folks, you and your hand-me-down liberal wisdom imparted to you by your flower children parents and Blockbuster rentals from the 90s, know the real score.

Unbelievable.

Well I don’t hit the classification of disabled actually. Because I’m capable of bending over. It’s all about range of motion, pain doesn’t matter. The $100 is cool though.

Thanks for the hero designation. Can’t say I deserve it, just pointing out that working for the good of the community can blow up in your face sometimes with little benefit... literally. But if me being a combat vet who bled for this country makes you feel some kind of way, I get it. I wouldn’t want to interreupt your pontificating with any real world examples. Guess I’m just some kind of glory hog asshole that way. What kind of dick would even bring that up right?

Anyways, back to sacrificing for the community because you don’t get shit on for mentioning what you gave up for them...

Culture is broken, got it. An that’s a cogent argument. If I knew my community gave a fuck and would back my play, I would step up and do the right thing. But asking individuals to make that stand is a bit dishonest. You operate in the world around you.

So what’s your suggestion to fix it? Or we just circle jerking about how cool we are?
