maybe they don't trust the police

Maybe we can make excuses all day and somehow it will justify adults standing by and actively participating in the coverup of a child murder.

Not likely though.

Anyway, there is an awakening. Kanye is dropping truth bombs and Candace Owens is killing it. Statiscally, there are going to be people that tune in and wake up. I'm actually hopeful, this past week has been amazing.

Broken culture and fear of reprisal aren't mutally exclusive.

SNL did a what if that was the case:

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

Brother Mouzone did it with class, and he wasn't going to be taking out random people.

Our resident victimologists have been assured by their white-guilt laden forefathers that minorities only stonewall police and shelter murderers because dangerous gangs run the lives of "those people".

Thank God white people never had any dangerous gangs.

It's a damn shame no dangerous gang members have ever gone to jail though, what with everyone being too terrified to testify against them. Scour jails from top to bottom and you'll find nary a gang affiliate, because "those people" are cowed into silence on account of the dangers.

White people wouldn't understand that of course, because we don't have dangerous gangs.
