Because that's only showing crimes in the Detroit city limits you ******* moron.

Can confirm. This is a different plot of the same statistics used as the map of OP
Instead of being low in crime, it just isn't accounted for.

Gonna call BS on the race baiting nature of this post, Please turn your attention to the the circled areas and notes their race composition and crime level. I theorize that the high crime areas are also low income areas and that is the driving force behind the crime.

So why are the "low income areas" basically all black? Coincidence?
User avatar #26 to #12 - fiveblackmen (01/10/2016) [-]
Low income and high population density. It seems that crime rates grow faster than the population density rather than at the same rate, so an area with twice the density of another area, but the same average income, might have a crime rate that is three or four times that of the less dense area. On top of this, areas that are populated mostly by minorities also tend to have gang problems. So a small percentage of the population that lives there are doing the bulk of the serious crimes.

You're right, and you're wrong.

There is correlation between poor black and crime, while the same correlation does not exist with poor whites.

Poverty begets crime, but poor blacks generate more crime than poor whites.

well if you built a decent school system that allowed them to get out of poverty, would that not solve much of the problem?
#18 to #17 - theXsjados ONLINE (01/10/2016) [-]
There are a large variety of systems in place to allow just about anyone to beat poverty. I was homeless, for less than two weeks. WIthout even a GED I managed to get enrolled in classes at my local community college, get my GED, get low cost housing, and get grants that not only payed for my college education, but put money in my pocket.

What you can't beat is poverty with a record. I never dealt drugs, I never stole. I never entered the criminal justice system, so I had access to these programs unmolested. Many people, blacks included, have stated the obvious in a multitude of videos available online; stop committing crimes, the rest is easy.

People don't like Obama but if you're a young teen/adult you have no real reason to not like him. He subsidized education and insurance. If you're young, poor, and record free with his reforms you can get education, insurance, and welfare all for free no problem.

thank you for explaining that, I'm not living in the us, but I appreciate the response. And congrats on beating poverty! life's rough, glad things worked out for you.

What about war vets?
#32 to #31 - theXsjados ONLINE (01/10/2016) [-]
They can take advantage of the same programs.

The most widely known vet issues are mental health issues and disability, which is an entirely different spectrum. Inner city blacks don't generally have mental health issues and disabilities prohibiting them from being independant and getting an education.

The vets who don't suffer from debilitating disability and/or mental health issues have access to the same programs any regular citizen does (provided no criminal history), and more so: the GI Bill.

It exists, but it is just different kinds of crimes. Poor black neighborhoods are breeding grounds for gangs and as such see a lot of violent crimes. Most poor white neighborhoods don't have the same type of gang problems and as such you don't see as many violent crimes.
#27 to #25 - theXsjados ONLINE (01/10/2016) [-]
Once again yes and no. Poverty begets crime, but blacks produce more than whites by a large margin.

Any crime is bad, but black crime is particularly egregious; gangs, drugs, murdering, and raping. Whites tend to get involved with drugs and do economic crimes to support their habits, but blacks do it more by a large margin, and once again they then form gangs to take advantage of the drug and violence markets. At least whites don't form gangs in order to take advantage of their poorer populace.

You basically just agreed with what I said. Other than a few MCs, most of which remain pretty small when compared to other gangs, poor white areas don't suffer the gang problems that poor black and Latino areas suffer. However, if you really look into, many of the black gangs that exist today can trace their roots back to the civil rights movement. They were originally created as a way for minority neighborhoods to both police themselves and protect themselves from the corrupt white police. The problem here is that they didn't just disappear when the movement ended and their views got twisted and corrupted, they sometimes split into smaller gangs based on disagreements and then started killing each other over turf and money as well as robbing, selling drugs and killing anyone that got in their way or just happened to be around them when **** got bad. Having said all that, I think that if we could manage to take care of the gang problems, which isn't going to happen with the budgets a lot of the worst cities give to their police departments and all the protests, we would see a dramatic drop in black and Latino crime rates, possibly enough to be in line with white crime rates.

yeah citation needed on that one, not a single crime outside of the primary black area, including other smaller black areas without a single reported crime

I live in Windsor, Ontario. My family is from Detroit and I cross at least once a week. Can confirm this is 100% legit.
User avatar #9 - GmCity ONLINE (01/10/2016) [-]
Okay now I'm not surprised Americans think Blacks in Detroit are criminals.

Anyone who knows the history of this country should understand why this is completely. I'm not **** posting here I am serious. Why is everyone surprised by this.

When Slaves were freed many of them started on the bottom of the class "Food Chain". Many of them either continued to basically work as slaves and other migrated to low income areas.

You ever here the quote "The rich stay rich and the poor stay poor?" . Well it is kinda true in this situation. Many minorities (both families with slave ties and immigrants) stayed in these low income areas and never got an education or really did anything else but stay lower class and produce more children. Many people were born into little to know education to go through and many did not have well educated people around them. you get a bad public education I had public school education. I am not saying public school is bad but in heavy crime and urban areas the schools tend to have worst grade averages and lower graduation rate. and a live in an area where you can either have a ****** job or try and sell drugs or do crime to get money. Is there other options? Yes, but to many of these people they do not have the knowledge to do something better. You're uneducated. You live in a ****** place. There is rug and crimes all around you. Its easy to fall victim to it. This happens for about a hundred years in more urban areas till you get exactly what you see here.

I am not making excuses for people here. I am just explaining why it makes scene that a group of people would stay in lower class and continue to be there for so long when you think about it historically.

Yeh because white slaves were not a thing, indentured servitude for whites never happened, and the 19 million whites today living below the poverty line (versus the 10 million blacks) don't actually exist. But hey, lets all make blacks out to be martyrs in an unjust society and completely remove the necessity of personal responsibility. In this way we can excuse their disproportionate amount of criminal activity and their cultural hostility towards education and literacy.

Argo: I was explaing why it isn't pure coincidence
User avatar #37 to #21 - tastywheat (01/13/2016) [-]
Wow dude calm down. Like I said I was not defending blacks. Nor was I trying to make them seem like victims. I was just saying : a lot of them started poor and why are we suprised when we have racial division like this. Im not justifying the behavior. Im just explainging the history behind it.
