you can't stop it unless you dump money education city planning etc. in those neighborhoods for for 2 generations at least. the O, bmore, watts, Detroit, SOuthside chicago, those mothafuckas are in generational poverty meaning that kinda culture is ingrained in them, sort of like those warrior tribes that still killing each other after thousands of years.

even then a lot of the hood mind frame is based off opportunism. the key to solving the issue may be a strategy that is impossible to build because the people won't earnestly buy into it w/o looking for a way to take advantage of it, and the social institutions that would be integral to deploying it (schools, social welfare initiatives) are operationally incapable/inept when it comes to not only devising it, but executing it w/efficacy.
lol you're a funny little guy
You would never be able to hold your own in a debate with me on the topic. I don't know how you think you can gauge my intelligence level off of um...err...nothing?
Spewing rhetoric does not equal intelligence my friend. I'm glad you took that poly-sci class. I probably would have enjoyed it if I had ever had the opportunity to go to school.

that sounds good, but your last couple of posts and then the crack about him having obama bedsheets. just reeks of small minded conservative 'tea party' type values and seems to be the context that a 'republican' would throw out there. you basically blamed the victims of generational disenfranchisement, with a variation on the old 'welfare is the problem, why don't they just do better' argument that conservatives use
any tea party shit is some shit you read into what i said.
there's been an elaborate, long-running and systematic crippling of social mobility for minorities and the impoverished that has conditioned a large contingent of that group to pursue opportunism, not as a fault but as a survival mechanism.
to recognize the symptom is not to condemn the afflicted. you have to honestly recognize the variables in a system, before you can solve the flaws in it.
if we can agree that a lack of parenting is a huge contributing factor to violence, cyclical poverty and all kinds of other areas that it cascades into this and that area of our communities. you're really talking about opportunistic parents that give more of a fuck about themselves than they do their families, and they pass that shit down, and it's very real. personal accountability is eroding with every generation, and that's just one aspect along w/the way social/civic institutions have been fucking the communities that needs to be addressed.
are we, and our leaders equipped to? has it gone too far? that was the simple question i was posing out the gate.

Deplorable story here, i give those that are wounded and the 1 year old innocent being who's corpse was taken from this earth but who's spirit lives on, my condolences. Those streets of Oakland are definitely a war zone, we as human beings fail to love and respect one another. Violence does not solve anything, as this scenario will possibly proceed with retaliation. Weapons were the worst creation on this earth i think, as us human beings use them for the wrong purposes; deducting numbers from our population with one pull of the trigger to say the least.
But as from Law Enforcements perspective, they look at the Brown and Black minorities and say how absurd these people are, as they see us only destroying our own population with our violence which in majority of the cases emerge from Gangs and Drugs.
with no disrespect Kafani better be cautious before he ends up in a coffin like our fallen brother Pretty Black, be wise particularly in Oakland where we all know flashing scrill will only put you in danger.
