@amerika @dcc @Deplorable_Degenerate @thegreatape @gnarley_boot @andreas poverty doesn't cause crime its a risk factor. people have their basic needs, and when the system fails to provide it, be this due to mistakes, debt of any kind, medical expenses, high rent, whatever, that could risk their food, their housing, and things like this, obviously people are gonna take it in their own hands no shit. and with all the regulation there is in society the only way to have direction action to benefit yourself like would be commonplace in a pre-industrial society is to commit crimes typically.
you take a risk to ensure housing or food for you or maybe your family, it makes perfect sense to me. sure poverty can be livable without crime but when those hardships come and you finally run out its quite hard not to. nor do i really have a problem with any of that.
and when your from an impoverished community that has to resort to those things its only understandable it becomes normalized. you gotta fix those impoverished conditions and have a new generational cycle without this normalizing culture to fix that. it's gradual and would take atleast around a hundred years to truly fix if beauracracy didnt kill it, so its not wonder the short sighted people in a democracy aren't gonna support any policy that will actually solve shit and jsut crack down more. your cracking down isn't gonna work unless you take the bukele approach and just get everybody more or less indiscriminately frm such areas, which could work but i think most people would have an even worse issue calling that inhumane

Doesn't track with real-life experience.
The people committing crimes are parasites on their families as well as their communities.
They aren't doing this for money to live. Most of them are on welfare. They are doing it for money to party.

In my experience, it's not poverty that causes crime.
People do crime because they're angry, bored, and selfish.
Most Black people do not commit any substantial crimes.
With the sheer amount of laws in this country, almost no one has committed zero crimes.

@dcc @amerika @Deplorable_Degenerate @thegreatape @gnarley_boot @andreas considering what awful conditions and financial pressures the vast majority of them live under it's honestly impressive its only 60% of violent crimes. good job for having self control blacks
