Seems the racists on here want to defend the racist in the video and pretend they didn't hear "your inner cities" when addressing black customers.
Then they - the racists here - attempt to hijack this thread by talking about BLM, Joe Biden........... my being a Canadian liberal posting race baiting threads........... ANYTHING to deflect what this story is all about.

They have been generationally trained since the 100 yrs of segregationist policies and ideals were ingroomed into them, and they've passed it from one generation to the next. They can't stand the fact that "TODAY' blacks and other non whites can "frequent the same places they frequent", "buy the same vehicles, and homes and attend the same schools'... To them, they take it as a threat to their once "segregated system that gave them the delusion that they were superior"... when fact has always been.. they are not superior" they have been groomed in being and promoing "Barbaric Savagery Based on their aggressions upon other based on Race and Ethnicity'...
History is full of documentations of it.

Admitting it is a good first step!
Because with your vote, comes that responsibility, and by turning the other cheek, you condone it. By pretending it doesn't exist, you ignore it.
Now all you have to do is do some research into how people are still being treated unfairly today because of the color of their skin and vote to change it.
Congratulations you are on your way to helping someone but yourself. Glad to see it.

Speaking for myself only:
1). It's a sore spot with woke leftists, and it's fun tweaking them. In their prismatic eyes, a conservative is the embodiment of the Klan. If they see white sheets at Big Lots, they're stampeding for the exits.
2). Gun control is my pet issue, and Chicago is one of the most restrictive, anti-gun cities in the country. And yet homicide rates there have exploded. Progressives aren't interested in an honest debate on the issue. Instead of using the FBI's definition of an "active shooter event," they've taken more common, inner city, often gang-related shootings and used them to confuse the public. Using THEIR definition, CHICAGO LEADS THE NATION IN MASS SHOOTINGS!
3). There is strong, anti-police sentiment there on the part of local politicians. They support so-called bail reform laws. Businesses are leaving. When the CEO of McDonald's weighs in and says there's a crime problem, there's a crime problem.
4). It's run by liberal Democrats, and the city's mayor, Lori Lightfoot, is a joke.
Mayor who pushed to defund police by $80M pleads with feds to help with rampant crime
Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot pleaded to the federal government for additional law enforcement resources on Monday to crack down on rampant crime, despite supporting measures to defund her city's police just last year. A rampant crime crisis in major U. S. cities is causing progressive mayors who...

You utter old bigoted racist right wing spin.... you better open your eyes, and you might find the high volume that exist within white society of single women having children where the father is not there, you might want to look at the high % of divorces in white society as well where the father is not in the home, and if you face those truths, you might get off the fact of thinking black people are the only ones who have fatherless homes.
You might also want to look around with open eyes, and you might realize the volume of white unemployed people, as well as the high volume of white people who make substandard wage and must rely on public assistance.

That bullshit comment, only appeases you....
You just can't stand the fact that of bias, bigotry and racist ignorance truths can be told that relate to some white people.
You are so out of date... until you expose yourself as being such, every time you post.

Are we talking about cities, or states? Because the report you linked is discussing states. Why do you suppose all of these states except one, New Mexico, with its large Hispanic and Native American population, are all concentrated in a cluster in the South? Why not, say, South Dakota or Wyoming? It's because you and MSNBC are being disingenuous. Most of this crime is occurring in large urban centers--cities--run by Democrats. In my state, Mississippi, most of this crime occurs in the capital, Jackson, which has been run for decades by Democrats. No one wants to live there because of the crime, and it's retarding economic growth. The city's water system fell apart because so many people fled the place it doesn't have the tax base to support the existing infrastructure. It's an embarrassment. Same thing in New Orleans. At least six mass shooting in the first half of the year, most of them concentrated in high-crime areas of New Orleans East. More Democrat ineptitude.
Why can't these magaturds leave other people alone? If these snowflakes are so easily triggered they should stay the duck home.

Inner Cities has economic challenges... and when there is economic challenges, desperation functions and crime become more likely, its has nothing to do with whether its Democratic or Republican.
It's Economics and Devastation of Opportunity.
It was Republican Ideology that led to the exodus of business and industry from the inner cities, and it took off into overdrive after the passage of the Civil Rights Acts, and by the 1970's exodus of business and industry increased because more blacks, brown and women people were advancing and would have gained economic parity with white men, if the business and industry had remained.
Exporing Industry was not just about one things, it was to avoid, "avoid and curtail women and minorities from having equality in opportunity, pay, benefits and diversity in job classes with white men". They figured they could 'export to China, and get slave wage labor, and keep the administrative high pay jobs primarily for white males and limit women and minorities in those jobs, to keep the old system of "White nationalistm of wealthy and well to do white male dominance, by ensuring that economic opporunity would not afford women and minorities the same accessibility and economic uplift that white men have historically maintained and protected for themselves.
They felt China had a "contained society, who would work for slave wage labor" and all American business men had to do was "manage" and control everything in the consumer market place.
It's all backfired, and these same ideological concepts creafted by white men, has backfired, and they want to blame "China', when China did not come and take anything from America, it was the white nationalist idealist who "exported industry and productions to China",.... now they are upset because China took the pennies they paid, turned them into dollars, invested those dollars in building up their country and uplifting their people, and began to secure for themselves natural resources around the world, and then they began to buy of what ever the white men sold in their pursuit for short term gains, and the Chinese bought it and invested in it, and made it become competetive chinese owned companies on American soil. They turned and flipped the white nationalist game on its head, and now these white nationalist are upset they can no longer dictate anything to China.
And the same white nationalist won't invest in America, they look from other countries they can do so where they think the people are stupid, because they work for low wages, and when those countries take the pennies and turn them to dollars, then American white nationalist get upset and want to create conflict with those nations, because they can no longer dictate influence in their governing systems.
It will keep happening until the younger generation come with it respect for diversity, because the current generation of white nationalist wealth, have proven they will "sell anything" for right now profits for the short term"... and think they can later create conflict in other nations and expect to take it back. Facts have proven... it does not work that way!!!! and there is "no taking back".
Because those foreign countries have learned how to improve and modernize industry where it looks nothing like the industry of the past.
American industry led by the wealthy, are too greedy to invest in improving american based companies, and expand american based companies, beause they want to do things as cheap as possible, then expect astronomical results, which is a bullshit concept. Not even America people want some of the crap that american companies produce in America because the quality is so low, and the durability is poor and the service is basically non existant.

Granderson: The accusations against Brett Favre are not just another NFL scandal
Stealing welfare funds would be new low.
www.latimes.com
BY LZ GRANDERSON | COLUMNIST
"...
As one would imagine in a town with fewer than 500 people, good-paying jobs in Cruger are not plentiful. The current median household income is less than $25,000, leaving roughly 35% of the population living in poverty. There are a lot of towns like Cruger in Mississippi, our nation’s poorest state.
Crawford, where Hall of Famer Jerry Rice grew up, has a 26% poverty rate. Archie Manning’s birthplace of Drew has a poverty rate of more than 40%. Rams great Jackie Slater was born in the state capital of Jackson, where 180,000 residents recently went weeks without clean drinking water and where 1 in 4 live in poverty.

Brett Favre’s Most Memorable Stat May Be $8 Million Meant for the Poor (Published 2022)
His role in the misappropriation of welfare money has infuriated people in his native Mississippi and prompted some fans to call for his removal from the Hall of Fame.
"..Text messages between Favre and Bryant, made public by Bryant’s attorney in a court filing late last week, show Favre unsuccessfully pushing for more public funding for Southern Miss athletic facilities in late 2019, even after the then-governor cautioned him that misuse of the welfare grants New had access to could be illegal. In addition to the volleyball facility — toward which Favre said he personally owed money — one message shows Favre lobbying for the construction of an indoor football facility to help recruit Deion Sanders’s son, Shedeur Sanders, a top quarterback, to Southern Miss.
Favre also worked to secure $2.1 million through New’s nonprofit for the biotech start-up, which purports to be developing a drug to treat concussions. This investment also came from public funds for the welfare program and, the state’s lawsuit said, was for the “financial benefit” of Favre and others..."

I’m not saying I am a victim. I’m saying the Democrats who’ve run the city for decades are incompetent. It’s not the state’s or federal government’s responsibility to replace water pumping stations and pipes in Jackson, and the problem of controlling crime is principally a local task as well.
Yeah? And who’s that? Because I haven’t the slightest clue what the hell you’re talking about.

I think urban decay is a multifaceted problem. Take a city like Detroit. Part of its woes are economic. During WW2, plentiful, well-paying jobs in heavy industry attracted blacks in large numbers from the deep South. After the war, the United States was the only major industrial power with its economy left standing. The auto industry prospered, and so did workers of all races. Your claim that passage of the Civil Rights Act set in motion some vast Republican conspiracy to hold blacks down strikes me as so much nonsense. There’s a separate forum for that here. Incidentally, Detroit hasn’t had a Republican mayor since 1962. But the fortunes of the city and its citizens fell with those of the auto industry.
I think another accelerant of urban decay in heavily-black cities like Detroit has been the breakdown of the black family. It went from a state of the typical lower or middle-class, church-going nuclear family in the 1950s to that of today where more than 2/3rds of births are out-of-wedlock. Kids drop out of school, and gangs and drugs rule the streets. If you’re going to have a healthy city, you have to have healthy families. To what extent federal social welfare incentives against family formation played a role in this I can’t say, but I don’t see how they helped.
Another factor: white flight following race riots subsequent to the assassination of MLK. Anyone with money, including middle-class blacks, fled the city to the suburbs following those riots. Empty lots and declining real estate values aren’t conducive to growing your tax base. Schools suffered as well, fueled by efforts at forced integration through busing.
So, yeah, these are some serous problems, but I don’t think they’re intractable. But it will be difficult to adequately address them until progressive Democrats stop engaging in blame and finger pointing and get to the crux of the real problem, which is the destruction of the family unit.

I can agree they don’t have the money to maintain their existing infrastructure because people and businesses with money don’t want to live or locate in a crime-ridden cesspool. You’re not going to buy yourself to prosperity with criminals and welfare recipients.
