"If you were to take a group of people and put them in an impoverished area, they're likely to commit more crimes because they have not been helped in the way that they need to be"
this is literally false
take south africa
post-apartheid, black south africans were given everything: houses, infrastructure, money, and they destroyed it.
crime and corruption exploded, a first-world country with nuclear weapons and a nuclear power plant turned into a third-world country running on coal and with cities controlled by gangs, infrastructure was disassembled and sold for scraps because they couldn't see the value in things like trains, it became "the rape capital of the world"
some afrikaners instead left, went into the middle of fucking nowhere (impoverished would be a euphemism), they went into the desert where there was literally nothing, and built Orania
a few years later it has its own currency, virtually ZERO crime, a functioning economy, great schools etc.
saying "black people commit more crimes because of socioeconomic factors and questioning that is racist" never addresses the cause. poor europeans after the war didn't steal from each other. the cause is something else, and as long as looking for it gets you labelled racist, we will never find a solution.
Joe Bartolozzi GOES OFF on people who say Black people are more likely to commit crimes than white people
“If you are going to say statistically they do, that is only because of impoverished areas and the lives they’ve been given due to the implications of systemic racism.”
