Chicago, USA Where the Weekly Body Count Goes On & On & On & On &...

Let's see...Democrats had a slavery based economy, and fought a civil war to preserve it. Upon losing, Democrats prevented blacks from voting and achieving economic independence during Reconstruction. They created the KKK to enforcement the black race's submission. Of course there were Democrat segregation and Jim Crow laws for blacks to submit to. The Democrats fostered The Great Society upon the black community and succeeded creating the welfare state and fatherless black homes. Then Joe Biden, Democrat, wrote the Senate part of the 1994 Crime Bill, signed by Democrat Bill Clinton, the bill that became the basis for imprisoning more blacks then any other race per capita and for longer sentences, and militarized the police departments across the nation.
Both of those issues happen to be a partial basis of the BLM agenda. So yes, I do agree there is systemic racism. But wait, there's more! Cities run by systemic racist Democrats have continued to have the highest number of black on black crimes- from robbery to rape to murder- for decades. And today, Democrat cities are defunding the police and creating an explosion of black on black crime. I would call it in total state sponsored BLACK ON BLACK GENOCIDE. THEN we have illegal immigrants flooding the country, under a Democrat's presidency, who will take tens of thousands of jobs from blacks. For dishonorable mention, The BLACK GENOCIDE continues under the creation of a racist, Margarette Sanger, the creator of Planned Parenthood, that has continued for decades to slaughter black infants at rates greater than any other race per capita. THAT is only the tip of the Democrat party's system racism.

The southern states had a slavery based economy. Democrats are the ones who voted to go to war to preserve slavery - yes, that's true.

Foisted the great society on black America - providing policies people support and vote for = Foisted? How did that lead to fatherless black homes? I thought that was initially a Vietnam thing. Maybe I'm mixing things.

Crime bill - in Senate 95 for, 4 against, 1 not voting; In the house 235 for, 195 against, 5 not voting.

In hindsight the crime bill was a horrible idea. At the time, it had wide support. Do with that what you will.

Democratic cities are worse - Most larger cities vote Democrat for myriad reasons. But you know what? I'm progressive. I vote Democrat because there are only two flavors of ice cream and one doesn't believe in climate change. Systemic racism isn't about party. But if it makes you feel better and you want to root it out of the larger cities first - awesome. Lets make it happen.

Explosion of black on black crime - hard to judge. Violent crime went up nearly across the board last year. Baltimore (oddly) actually had its homicide rate go down last year and I think they made moves to defund.

State sponsored genocide - Neither state sponsored nor genocide.

Ah, abortion. The worst plan of all time. Voluntary control of your own body. Population rates are still rising in the black community. Sanger wasn't a racist. She was into Eugenics, but so were a lot at the time. She wanted to breed all of the races in America together to create the perfect "American Race" and thought the first step in that was people having no more children than they could nurture. And even if she was...again, worst plan ever.

Why do you try to separate us out by party? I didn't vote for Trump but he was still my President. When I see a city has something wrong with it I don't immediately think "I bet its a republican state". Why is that? Nobody who voted one way or the other in relation to the civil war is alive today.

It's all politics. We all know that.

Everything can be politics. Doesn't change the fact that evil Democrats is a very simple view of a complicated world.

The evidence is there. The left is a death cult.

What a vague and apocalyptic accusation.

True and current.Very apocalyptic. Where democrats rule, chaos and death follow. It's not climate change you need to be concerned with; much worse is on the way. Oh, btw, you are correct, Margaret Sanger was a eugenicist. If you are up for a good read, check this out... http://www.blackgenocide.org/archived_articles/negro02.html She has succeeded very well. And yes, women have the right to murder their unborn child, just as men had the right to own slaves; they too were considered to be sub-human and had no rights. But do women who murder their unborn infants realize that their aborted babies are considered a Human Resource that is sold to laboratories for profit? How ironic and ghoulish. Worse than the Nazis' inhumanity. As I said, the left is a death cult.

I remember the predictions about Obama's second term. So you'll forgive me if I don't take this seriously. I mean, how did everyone get their guns back? Have we rolled back shari'a law yet? /S

Sanger - I actually read one of her books because someone told me I was unaware of how racist she was. Lucky it was short. She was concerned with people having more children than they could care for. She thought people should have control of that number so that the children could thrive. She did think that certain kinds of people should not breed, but it wasn't race based.

I would have that there be no abortions, I would like us to address the reasons women so it.

Also, the maternal mortality rate is 17.4 per 100,000. Not a huge number but it is a risk. Until viability I leave the decision with the mother to be.

It's illegal to profit off of the sale of fetuses. https://oversight.house.gov/planned-parenthood-fact-v-fiction

Death cult worse than Nazis - disagree

Oh. Hell no. The democratic party would have you believe there is.

Yes I would. I've been convinced by evidence.

What evidence?! I admit there are racists, people that hate other people just for the color of their skin, but it isn't as widespread as the leftist media would have you believe.

It isn't taught in schools (unless you are talking about critical race theory) and people don't have any added advantages because of the color of their skin (unless you are talking about affirmative action).

Its a lot of things, and I doubt you'll accept them. But when has that ever stopped me?
The right doesn't trust the government about anything: elections, climate, CDC, FBI. Its all deep state this and deep state that. Covid deaths - must be a financial incentive by the hospitals. FBI - can't trust them. Statistics? Nah.

POC says they are being treated unfairly? Suddenly we have all the faith in the world in government. Statistics and numbers (created from law enforcement reports) are 100% trustworthy. The idea that police might feel those same pressures to make arrests that apparently result in lying about COVID cases? Nah. The idea that cops might cover for each other? Silly.

It is literally the only area where the government seems to be trusted. I interpret this as "the only thing we trust less than the government is black people" - maybe that's not fair, but it its what I see.

Don't like that one: BLM showed up to protest George Floyds Death. It was captured on video, national outrage, first time I remember ever hearing police officers nationwide coming out to say that isn't right. DA announces he might not file charges. WHAT? I'll even give him the benefit of the doubt - he didn't think he could get a conviction. It wasn't even worth taking to trial. No jury need see it. That's when riots started.

Cousins I have who have for years said "if you come into my house with a no knock warrant you're leaving in a body bag" suddenly become pacifists and say you should handle it in court when its Breonna Taylor. Apparently from my cold dead hands has odd caveats I was unaware of.

But the biggest comes down purely to statistics: POC are more likely to be shot by police and are in jail and in poverty at greater numbers (by %) than others. Personal responsibility only works at the individual level. You shouldn't expect to see consistent deviations by race year after year. So, I have to conclude that either black people are more criminal than the rest of us, or there is something else. Since the closest thing I have to a core principle is "People are people", I am unwilling to accept black people are less. Could it be socio-economic (more POC are poor)? Maybe, but then why are more POC poor? We come back to the same question. Any excuse you come up with still comes back to why are POC more effected?

So the way I see it, either we have some things to address in society or black people are inferior. I find the later to be unacceptable.
