Are you talking about a specific country in Africa? If so, what do you propose? Should we send US military to force a regime change? Because that worked so well in Afghanistan, right?
To be honest, the regime change in Afghanistan was kind of working, at least that's what it looked to me when I was there in 2010. Then the western world lost interest and withdrew
The right thing is let every country run in their way. Don't interfere. It is wise for U.S. army to withdraw from Afghanistan.
I resent the Taliban for depriving of the right of women to receive eductaion, but that doesn't mean I support meddling in other countries' internal affairs. Believe in Afghanistan will generate an enlightened regime in the future.
Our crime statistics show the greatest threat to a young black male is another young black male. Look at the Chicago shooting stats every weekend.
Dig deep into gun deaths and you will see that is young men if color shooting andurdering each other in gang and criminal contexts that accounts for most of the deaths.
And yet the media can only rise to care about gun deaths when it is white children being murdered. That shows their real values.
Yes, but the murder rate of young white men does not approach that of black men.
More black men are murdered than white men as an absolute count, which is horrific considering that whites outnumber blacks by at least 4:1.
Is it more racist to not talk about black on black violence, or to address it directly? Refusing to acknowledge the issue so we can tailor policy to save black lives is white privilege exemplified.
Some young men face a tough choice - work at McDonalds for $8/hr, or work for a local gang selling drugs on the streets. Yes, this choice in US is forced by society upon overwhelmingly black or latino men. But it is still a choice, and not every black man born in a poor neighborhood chooses a violent life of a gang member.
I have zero sympathy for criminals who're killing each other. Have you tried comparing murder rates of innocent non-violent civilians across different races?
