None of these serial killing maniacs have been black.Newfie wrote:The problems with that group are manifold. Lack of education, skills, male role models, job opportunities, bias' against them, etc. They are not dumb, they do what they do because it makes sense in their situation.

Americans of all stripes are going to learn to stop flaunting it. Otherwise they'd better learn to live as targets. Those cowboys and cowgirls with their high heels and big hats and makeup better tone their ride down. There is a entire demographic of folks out there (losers if you wish) who are getting sick and tired of having American Exceptionalism rammed down their throats. Call it envy. Sick but real.
It's not the black community either. They learned to live as losers a long time ago. It's the marginalized white who do this.
