Even if I accept the postulation that the root cause of all crime is the lack of fathers in a given household, what is the proposed solution to this problem?

Nailed it

San Francisco has excessive crime, this is because of NIMBYism more than "suspect exhibiting non-white behavior". Trust me I grew up an hour and a half away

I can imagine being a young black dude and hearing constantly from everyone how the country is racist and you'll always be held back and you basically have no agency to do anything to make a good life for yourself might make me more likely to say fuck it and become a professional criminal.

Nobody has to tell black people the country is racist: they know it from a lifetime of racist experiences.

Actually, abortion has been shown to massively reduce crime: see Freakanomics.

The short version is that abortions reduce unwanted children. Unwanted children are more likely to become ... [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] ... criminals.

Yea Jaden Smith has had such a racism-riddled, terrible life

Black conservatives, especially those from the middle class, seem to give a very different “lived experiences” (I hate this phrase) picture

Your income matters infinitely more for your quality of life than your race in modern America

Oh give me a break. This right here is the problem. I know many black people and not a single one of them has ever expressed this attitude. I only hear it from white libs and racial grievance vultures like al sharpton.

Why did jussie smollet have to literally invent a completely retarded fake hate crime? Shouldn't he have had many real ones to complain about? Oh wait he's a black insanely rich actor. The white supremacy system of structural oppressions skipped over him I guess?

Boy I wish I could be as oppressed as all those famous black actors and presidents and athletes and musicians who only make millions of dollars here in racist america.

Stop telling black kids they can never make it when that is *obviously* untrue. You're not helping.

Yea I was being sarcastic.

"“The unborn” are a convenient group of people to advocate for. They never make demands of you; they are morally uncomplicated, unlike the incarcerated, addicted, or the chronically poor; they don’t resent your condescension or complain that you are not politically correct; unlike widows, they don’t ask you to question patriarchy; unlike orphans, they don’t need money, education, or childcare; unlike aliens, they don’t bring all that racial, cultural, and religious baggage that you dislike; they allow you to feel good about yourself without any work at creating or maintaining relationships; and when they are born, you can forget about them, because they cease to be unborn. You can love the unborn and advocate for them without substantially challenging your own wealth, power, or privilege, without re-imagining social structures, apologizing, or making reparations to anyone. They are, in short, the perfect people to love if you want to claim you love Jesus, but actually dislike people who breathe. Prisoners? Immigrants? The sick? The poor? Widows? Orphans? All the groups that are specifically mentioned in the Bible? They all get thrown under the bus for the unborn.”"

Well a start might be for the general messaging from every single mainstream media outlet and institution to change from "white people root cause" to "hey take responsibility for your own actions asshole".

I can imagine being a young black dude and hearing constantly from everyone how the country is racist and you'll always be held back and you basically have no agency to do anything to make a good life for yourself might make me more likely to say fuck it and become a professional criminal.

So ya know, maybe if the media stopped just lying constantly, every day, about essentially every story involving race, behaviors might change! It's just that, depressingly, dems *need* people to believe racism is worse than ever. It's their electoral bread and butter. They have a perverse incentive to ignore all the progress that has occurred and lie to young minorities about the nature of life in america, which to me is unconscionable.

Remand and apply scrutiny to recidivism studies.
