You've got the right idea here and hit the nail on the head for the most part. Something else I'd like add on if I may is the cultural differences that represent the largest disparity. The White culture icons over the past 30 years have been pretty wacky but there's a fairly substantial lack in violent culture icons. Can you think of a single White Culture Icon that represents Violence? Tv, Music, Movies...anything? Maybe Rambo...he's fairly violent but he's also portrayed as being justified while he does it...there's also no cultural celebration over Rambo's violent nature.
Now look at Black Cultural Icons. Specifically let's look at Thug culture and how dominant it's been over the past 30 years. Look at the celebration and overwhelming praise given to those who promote and glorify violent and degenerate behavior. F$#% the police, treat Women like objects, the most important thing in life is getting paid and having respect, spending extravagantly defines your character...the list goes on and on. Make sure you take advantage of drugs and using them is awesome.....
I happen to enjoy Rap and Hip-hop music...but unfortunately the staggering majority of Rap and Hip-hop music is centralized around generally bad behavior and the promotion of it. Now I don't condone blaming music for anything...that's just not how we solve problems and shucking off responsibility makes things worse. That being said...the two cultures and their staggering difference cannot be ignored.

So, to put everything together, the poverty and bad economic situation lead to more crime meaning they will commit more murders and crime.

Where was the crime the biggest, in the upper classes or in the lower classes? The answer is obvious. Dirty peasants and craftsmen who could barely feed their families did not have any future to look forward to, they had nothing to lose. The criminal culture was rising from these factors. While the aristocrats spent all time having fun on parties or enjoying art galleries, the near-starving plebs were looking for ways to make their lives a little bit less miserable and hopeless and took on criminal activities, starting with simple bribes and going all the way up to waging gang wars for the sparse goods looted from slaughtered merchants and nobles.
Eventually, feudalism collapsed and gave way to a more horizontal structure, where most people had a chance to gain a lot of wealth by legitimate means. Did people immediately jump to that opportunity though? Of course not. Centuries of boiling at the bottom of the pot, looking for every possible opportunity to get a tiny bit richer or to vent one's frustration through violence, as well as the fact that collapse of feudalism didn't magically redistribute the societal wealth equally and the poor still remained poor - made sure that the problem of crime at the bottom was perpetuated.

It is no different in the US with the black population. For the vast majority of American history, blacks were either slaves, or, at least, a heavily discriminated extremely poor group. Civil right movements in 60-s and 70-s changed the legal status quo, and by now, I would say, the societal biases have always changed significantly and racism is not as prevalent in the society any more - however, you cannot undo the centuries of conditioning in a few decades. The crime rates among the black population are so much higher not because of their race in itself, but because of where history led them to. People whose parents grew up in segregation, where crime was widespread, are not going to be able to break off that lifestyle easily. A long period of time is required for the created opportunities to erase the shameful past, and until then that past will always influence the decision-making process of the affected social groups.

I have significant issues with the statistics at hand. For one thing, how do we necessarily know that every black person convicted of a crime is necessarily guilty? It is well documented that people belonging to the minority in the US have less resources. The Pew Research Center elaborates, showing that black Americans make less per hour compared to white Americans even when accounting for educational attainment (1).
In fact, the pay gap for black Americans is growing. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, in 1979, black men typically earned 80% of what a white man earned. In 2016, the gap widened to black men earning 70% of what a white man earns (2). The lack of resources has a lot to do with my skepticism regarding the outcome of so many murder cases as it leads to them relying on public defenders for representation in court. A local news station in Idaho reported on a draft study by the Idaho Public Defense Commission which found that public defenders in Idaho have only 4 hours on each felony case despite estimating a necessary 38 hours to provide effective legal counsel. Private attorneys surveyed reported a necessary 68 hours on each felony case (3). This is not a problem isolated to Idaho either, as the American Bar Assoc. created a report that highlights this issue and found that low pay, excessive reliance on plea deals due to inexperienced lawyering, and massive caseloads pervade through the entirety of the country’s public defenders. (4) With limited money available, is it any wonder why many black people are found guilty regardless of the truth? They are forced to rely on sub-par lawyers as opposed to private sector employees who demand higher pay for higher quality service. In fact, the comparison of wrongly convicted white and black defendants is quantified by the University of Michigan when they find:
“…innocent black people are about seven times more likely to be convicted of murder than innocent white people (5).”
The report goes further, exposing internal corruption within many of these murder trials due to misconduct of the police. Witness tampering, for instance, occurred in 21% of murder exonerations with white defendants but in 39% of those with black defendants (5). Of course, we know about this official misconduct, and many are released after this information comes to light. Take the case of Henry McCollum and Leon Brown, 2 people who were accused of raping and killing 11-year-old Sabrina Buie. Both were intellectually disabled and confessed under pressure from police while there was no physical evidence linking them to the crime scene. It wasn’t until 2010 when it was found that a cigarette butt at the scene of the crime matched the profile of Roscoe Artis, a proven serial murderer who was executed for raping and killing an 18 year old in the same county about a month after McCollum and Brown confessed. Not only was Artis a suspect in the original case, but:
“…police had asked the North Carolina State Bureau of Investigations to compare the fingerprints found on beer cans at the crime to those of Artis—but they hid that request from the defense. The authorities also concealed the fact that a witness who testified at trial that McCollum and Brown had admitted to the murder, had not only previously denied knowing anything about the case, but had taken a lie detector test that confirmed his denial (5).”
This is not even accounting for implicit biases that would affect those on the jury who have a final say over someone’s guilt. The APA conducted a study which asked participants to look at phots of young black and white athletes. White participants and black participants alike believed, despite the athletes being shown to have similar builds, that black athletes were more muscular and physically imposing (6). This sort of bias is going to change the subjective perception of the defendant, resulting in convictions based on nothing more than looks. This is one of the reasons people use to justify why more white defendants are likely to be dismissed of charges because they have had their crimes adjudicated as “justifiable homicide.” This is showcased by The Marshall Project in 2017, where they find:
“In almost 17 percent of cases when a black man was killed by a non-Hispanic white civilian over the last three decades, the killing was categorized as justifiable, which is the term used when a police officer or a civilian kills someone committing a crime or in self-defense. Overall, the police classify fewer than 2 percent of homicides committed by civilians as justifiable. The disparity persists across different cities, different ages, different weapons and different relationships between killer and victim.”
People may not even know that they perceive black people differently. After all, the idea of prejudice is considered taboo in American society. As a result, this goes unaddressed and people are convicted on dubious charges spawning from nothing but appearances.
Ergo, we cannot necessarily guarantee that the current statistics regarding homicides committed by black people are accurate. The lack of representation coupled with disproportionate misconduct issues and implicit biases put a damper on any official statistics regarding homicide. This is not to completely disregard the statistics at hand. I am not the type of person to follow the mantra of "if I do not agree with it, then it must be fake news." Rather, I am considering whether these statistics tell the full story. It would be a shame for people to come to the completely illogical conclusion that black people are necessarily more violent and ignore other factors at play.

I read an interesting post on Quora from a black woman who lived in Canada and visited the US on a business trip. She was shocked by how different black communities operated in the US compared to Canada, and even how people treated her. In Canada, she says, your skin color is not very important, and blacks in general act and think the same way as everyone else. However, in the US she encountered a very prejudiced attitude from people who expected her to speak "Ebonics" and were not ready to see an intelligently well-spoken business-lady, and speaking to other black people and seeing their communities, she understood why, because they were nothing like what she was used to. She could not relate to them, she did not understand their customs, and even their language seemed bizarre to her.
In a way, it is a self-perpetuating cycle in the US: people expect blacks to behave a certain way, blacks see this as discrimination and behave a certain way to respond to this discrimination, which confirms people's biases and perpetuates their expectations... There needs to be a coordinated effort from the society made to eliminate the racial boundaries, and it has to come from both sides.

What are the racial boundaries? That's an interesting story too, I understand people expect blacks to act a certain way too. I've had that thought in the back of my head at times, I use to use the n word 24/7, I use to sag a little, I use to blast that music into my ears that made you "hard" and glorified the streets. I understand it 100%. As I grew older I understood that the type of person I was wasn't for me in the long run. I think regardless of how people expect blacks to behave and act, blacks can do much more better. I'm just pin pointing the streets part of it though since I grew up on the ghetto side of town.

The idea that the reason why black Africans are dysfunctional is because US society is racist is pure bunkum. All black African countries are economic basket cases holding out the begging bowl to the rest of the world. NO CRT in Equatorial Guinea or Uganda. And black African men are very disproportionately represented in incarceration statistics in every western country that they inhabit. They are disproportionately represented in France. London was almost crime free before the importation of black Africans, but now it's homicide rate is similar to New York's. Here in Australia, black Africans were treated like royalty from the start to display to the world how creditably anti racist Australia was. The Federal government went around purchasing hundreds of houses from commercial real estate agents and renting them very cheaply them to black Africans, who paid the rent with their welfare cheques. . They then gave each family AUS$15,000 dollars to buy furniture and whitegoods. Please note, this was for black Africans and not white ones from South Africa or Rhodesia. White people can go suck an egg. Almost immediately, Australia was hit by a crime wave committed by black Africans.
There were so many violent home invasions caused by black Africans in Melbourne that it became impossible for a man to purchase a baseball bat to defend his own family in his own home. One black African was jailed and then deported after he raped four Australian women after only three days of getting off the airplane. State and federal governments reacted to this African crime wave the way all "progressive" humanitarian governments do when faced with an inconvenient reality. They lied about it. Like AOC's denial of widespread looting of stores in democrat cities, they claimed that it was no problem. But when TV scenes showed thousands of black African men rampaging through the streets of the Melbourne CBD, smashing cars, looting shops, and frightening the wits out of restaurant patrons, the socialist Victorian government reacted as lying socialists always do. They lied again. Their Police Commissioner, a political appointee who was picked for the job because she was not a male, claimed that 'African" crime rates were not much higher than anyone else in society. She did that by mixing white African crime statistics (which were probably non existent) with black African crime rates to get the desired outcome.
Einstein once famously opined that the best definition of insanity was "doing the same thing, over and over, and expecting a different outcome". The western world persists in thinking that all races are equal, and when they try it once again and it fails once again, they still look for excuses instead of focusing on the real issue.

Take something like the "gang rap". I am not sure how many people listen to it genuinely because this is the kind of music that aligns with their "soul", for the lack of the better world. Even if it did, there would be no reason to blast it from the car dynamics at the near-pain-inducing volume, would it? Most people who do it most likely do it because in their group it is considered "cool". On the other hand, say, listening to instrumental jazz is not "cool".
A less conformist person will listen to whatever they genuinely like, and if others in their group do not like the same type of music, they will be fine with it.
Different people find themselves in different environments. In the US the "Black culture" is much more prominent and isolated from other cultures than, say, in Canada or Australia. This, of course, makes those who live in respective environments more prone to being dragged into it, more incentivized to conform with it. Still, at the end of the day, everyone has a choice in how to act.

Hello Ex :
I often wonder about my own people who came to the US during the Irish famine and were treated appallingly by Americans mostly because they were Catholic and poor , they lived in the worst slums in the US yet they got on and today are in every profession one can name in the US , remember this is after coming from a country where they were second class citizens under the Brits . I don’t really buy the excuse that blacks are somehow “entitled “ to such behaviour because of past transgressions
A sizable amount of American blacks ( and growing) refuse to accept this narritive , a whole conversation needs to be had in the US regards this topic among blacks , parents are responsible for rearing their children no matter how bad circumstances are
It seems like criminality can be excused on account of the past , we can do better than this , your own people the Jews went through appalling suffering also yet they thrive , right?

But I was addressing the topic as written you’re the first to mention the “suppression law” which is a whole other debate

The feeling of hatred is not random; it is a result of a very irrational outlook on reality. I do not harbor such feelings towards any group of people, despite my ancestors having suffered greatly under the communist dictatorship, with some of my family members purged by that system. The past is the past: if my actions were in any way guided by what happened in Russia 80 years ago, my life would be a complete wreck. Anyone has a choice not to let their life degenerate to that point.
You may think that you are justifying the actions of the "oppressed" people, but your argument actually does the opposite. It, if it is true, explains that these people majorly have themselves to blame for their statistically inferior life outcomes. What happened to their ancestors is not up to them to decide, but it is up to them to decide how to process that information, and, from your argument, it follows that they have decided very poorly.

Unfortunately, and i say this with sadness, most black Africans are just not smart enough to prosper in a white, western society where competition and meritocracy is the key to success. That does not mean that all Africans are . There are smart blacks who do quite well in western societies, but unfortunately, they are very much in the minority. These smart blacks get on just fine with their white and Asian neighbors. As a matter of fact, I have even heard about a suburb in Los Angeles which was created entirely for black African doctors, lawyers and other professionals (sorry, I forgot it's name) It was considered such a peaceful and law abiding suburb that even whites and Asians started moving in. It is all about IQ and genetics. Ghetto blacks are as dumb as d-o-g-s-h-i-t and they are genetically extremely violent.

If there is something problematic with this change, then it should be criticized and opposed. It does not warrant holding people that had nothing to do with the events of the past responsible for their consequences.
If some black person hates me for having the same skin color as that of some slaver from 160 years back, then all I can say to them is, "Good luck". Sounds like a great way to live one's life, to hate complete strangers over some random and loose group associations. A way that is easily fixable through some basic introspection.
For that matter, is that not what the National-Socialist system was about? "You belong to the wrong group, so you are inferior, and we must take action against you". There is a saying: it is insanity to do the same thing and expect a different outcome. Perfectly applicable here.

I have never said otherwise. What you feel and why is, indeed, your business. What I am saying is that such feelings lead to poor actions and outcomes, and if a large group of people collectively partakes in them and does nothing to change them, then they will find themselves in quite a predicament.
I think that anger regarding anything is misplaced. If there is a problem, either it is to be solved, or accepted; dwelling on it and harboring negative feelings about it serves no practical purpose. Again, people are free to do so if they like, but then they should not wonder why the crime rates in their communities are sky-high, and the incomes are at the bottom of the barrel. This tends to happen when, instead of moving forward and building something, you sit in the past and wait for others to fix up your life.

One reason I became a racist was because of the opinions of Jewish kids at my high school. To begin with, they seemed to despise Australian kids. Not all of them, just most of them. They were very clannish and insular, and seemed to delight in sneering at Australian values. Hardly a formulae for making themselves popular. They went on and on about racism, but when I pointed out that Israel was a Jewish state, set up for Jews only, they went a bit quiet. The Jewish people who have suffered more than any people in history because of racism, got smart and realised that they had to get racist themselves to survive.
Most African blacks survive entirely on the white dole. Like in Rhodesia, without white people to pay their welfare most of them would starve to death. And then they come out with this "oppressor:" B-S and then we get a Jew agreeing with them. If you wonder why Jews have a popularity problem in the west, excon, look at your own opinions.
