lol..this was the plan all along lil nigga.

prison doesnt work...has never worked and will continue to be a tool for enslavement.

yeah, this isn't a surprising statistic
look at how few people were in America during the time of slavery compared to today
but yeah, it doesn't change the fact that blacks in America are still enslaved by poverty and prejudice

The difference is we have a CHOICE now....

yeah your right and they know that to..why do you think they keep making stricter rules..the 3 strikes rule is a perfect example.
they keep making the fence higher so we never see over it...

That fence applys to all races now. Yes money can give a person a way to avoid that but it is a class enslavement. The poor are peasants now. Look I'm gon tell u like I tell my folks IF U KEEP PAYING ATTENTION TO THE THINGS BEING USED TO SET US BACK U WILL MISS THE OPPORTUNITYS AVAILABLE TO PUT U AHEAD.

So true. It seems like, it may not be, but it seems like they're tryin to hold down the black race. I'm not even tryin to be funny either thats just what it seems like to me

I can't disagree with that at all.

agree..didnt mean to make my statement seem like i was only talking about black people..its definetly a class war now a days....

but who are the majority of the lower and middle class?..blacks and hispanics, go figure huh
yeah there is probably a good amount of white poorr people out there..but the majority these days are blacks and hispanics and
other minorty's which are the target of these slave institutions..

buti completely agree with your statement in caps....thats some prfound shit lol

Damn straight it's a class war. I wish people would fuckin forget race issues but dumb ass fucks like the KKK still gotta spew their message of hate which in turn pisses black people off which makes these people hate each other instead of realizing we're really united. We're the working class. Each of us struggling to make ends meet but messages of hate are just distractions from that. Racism is the saddest thing I've ever seen really. It's pitiful.

@Innovator...true shit....
I just don't want/like us a black folks taking that statistic as a excuse to do shit the wrong way to get wat we need. I always heard my niggas say man they wont give me no way to better my self by doing right so fuck it ill get it illegally. That's they plan. Make it harder for them so they can fuck up. Show these folks that shit wont work and they will have no choice but respect it or get rolled over.

in a thousand years or so they will be good with money and in general a responsible and decent people

right now is our time though

i used to think like that...alot of my peeps think like that..but yah cant blame them tho.

but your completely right...its fault on both sides of the coin..

instead of taking the easy way out...we need to progress with the changes..but at the same time
i hate when people say you sell out cuz you got a job and your doing everything the right way..cant stand that shit.

Lol @ sell out cause u get a job....ill tell a nigga straight up u can't whoop this nigga. Yo I love the hood but I seen no future for me there except what the opening post implys, in the pen. So I got out and my niggas respect that shit. Respect me doing better. Respect me giving myself more options. I wish a nigga coming to mr calling me a sellout lol I'd mop that fuckboy up.

They should probably stop committing crimes?

Seems like an easy fix, to me.

like destro said, more people?

like tyson said, if youre 'in the hood' then grow a brain and gtfo of there

like cake said, stop commiting crimes?

wanna commit a crime then cry when they get thrown in jail, the fuck outta here

hey man. I wasnt pointing blame anywhere. I thought it was an interesting fact

would you of rather of been left in africa? do you think black people would be as influential on pop culture as they are atm? slavery although inherently wrong has forwarded the progression of black people. look at the state Africa is in still, imagine what it would be like without other countries going in and introducing western culture and technology.

IMO, gangs are an extension of the tribal wars still going on in parts of Africa. it's not a reaction to being down trodden in American society.

um no, africa was/is much better off under tribal influence when they didnt have to worry about meeting a certain quota for mining lythiam so westerners could use it in smart phones. Majority of conflicts in africa are linked to western society. Look at the history of the congo for 1 example. You know not what you speak of.

the three strike rule shouldnt be an issue because if you constantly make the same mistake you need have some sort of reprocussion.also @ZenLand every race has its "kkk'. and to be honest i hate when people use the fact they live in the hood as a reason to do shit. ur enviroment doesnt make your choices for you. you do.
