Do not forget people, US crime rate is to a very large extent a "race issue". 53% of the offenders were black and only 45% white in 1996, according to the FBI statictics. That's even though blacks are a small fraction of the population. That's why it's expressed as a percentage. I think I feel a bigot baggin' comin' on. Do you know anything at all about the black experience in this country beyond Rochester, Step and Fetchit'and Shaft movies? No I do not. In 1950s, blacks were not liberated as much, did not have easy access to weapons, etc. Liberation of them, while it had a lot of desirable effects, unfortunately had a great effect on black crime rate. Like whites began to notice the prevalent black and black crime that had always been around. An excellent point. Like I said earlier, if all crime stats were properly broken down and analyzed, you would, first, see a much lower increase in actual crime, and second, you would not see any causal link that suggests that child beating leads to lower crime. Funny, how when you press people into a Ghetto with each other the crime rate for ghetto dweller upon ghetto dweller goes up. Surely, you are quite right. I don't suppose proximity has much to do with it though. "Those folks" can just mount up and go out to the burbs to do their crime where the police presence and response is not as high...oh wait... Think about the LA riots and why the rioters trashed their own neighborhoods. You apparently haven't known any blacks well enough for them to familiarize you with DWN or DWB...Driving While ****** or Driving While Black is the common experience of black people, men especially (the women are though to be just servants coming and going to work) have of being rousted when they leave the Ghetto. And surely you are right here, as well. A lot of crimes, such as forcible rape, was not as well reported in 1950s, either. I strongly suspect that if you break crime down well, the difference between 1950s and now would not be as huge for, say, white middle class people. I would also be very surprised if trash criminals were grown in nonviolent homes. Now you are on to something. Thanks. I am too lazy to look for it, but my sense is that these criminals grow up amongst drunk, drug abusing, wife beating, child beating retards, and not paragons of respectful, attentive methods of child rearing. More or less. What has the race of someone got to do with it, given your prior examples? I was pointing out that the OP's statement linking nonviolent methods of childrearing to increased crime was absurd, and that other reason explain apparent rise in crime rates readily. One of those reasons had to have something to do with tha changes in how the black community is treated, and another one, as I pointed out, was that crime statistics today is done differently. Does it change anything in regards to what I said? Or let's say that it was cheap. Would it change anything in regards to what I said? I think so, if you can get your head around bobb's rabid racism. He thinks that if the hispanics and blacks would get out there would be a world of jobs for whites. Yeah, I can see all those white tomato pickers now, and the landscape yard men, the ditch diggers and cleaners, the chemical farm spray workers...sure. I think that I am being dragged into a debate in which I have little interest. I came here when I saw a statement that said that less child beating means more crime. And now somehow I am being dragged into a discussion as to whether illegal immigration is a good thing. It is a huge social problem. Many of the CPS laws apply to blacks or were incorporated because of the black population. Absent fathers, etc. The illegal immigrant population is leading down another path that will be just as badly mishandled by the government. But more to your point... there are those who see any kind of spanking or slap on the butt as a terrible beating, or at least like to protray it as such and use it to justify bad behaviors in later life. That's like saying anyone who chewed gum will turn out to be a criminal. Few kids get through childhood without a slap on the butt.. or chew gum. bobb bobb |

You're not being very politically correct. Remove the black statistics for CPS, crime, public aid, and welfare. Go a step further... elimiate the cost illegal immigrants our costing this country. So what ARE the costs that illegal immigrants levy on this country? We get far more them than they take from this country dummy. Or you can go pick your own tomatos, learn to become a yard man or sew in a sweatshop for your own clothes. Tomatos. if I were to buy them today, are around $2.50 lb. Not much of a savings. If YOU had to pick them how much would you like to be paid to do so? And that's NOT what the farmer gets for them. Even so, if the wages are so very low as everyone says, they can hardly be 'giving back' much to the society that supports them. Crunch the numbers and see for yourself. It isn't how much one is paid, but how much one spends that determines that...and stoop labor workers "give back" what YOU do not have to, pain and hard work, and high health risk, and shorter lives. Grow up. They have to eat, buy shoes and clothing, feed their children, put gas in the car they bought here with their friends and relatives, and with all that try to pay back their relatives and friends that staked them to come north. Oh, and least you forget, they are required to pay taxes on their income just as you are. You should visit a community center that serves that population. Take an interpreter. If you are talking about mexican illegals then you should also be aware that there is a huge movement to 'legally' take over the U.S. And so tell us, just how would they do that without annexing Mexico to the US, which it practically is now..(shhh...don't tell any of my Mexican aquaintances I said that). Mexico is a labor pool for the US. The pressure isn't Mexican, it's US manufacturers, growers, industry, that uses that cheap labor pool. California and other border states are well aware of what's happening. What they are well aware of is how to keep using Mexico as an economic resource for US business interests. It's ain't the Mexican's stupid, it's that fat dude with the imported cigar, brooksbrothers suit, and a Mercedes limo waiting outside the restaurant you are eating in that is back staffed by little brown people mopin' and cookin' away. He owns the restaurant, blocks and blocks of lowcost ****ty assed housing, partnered in huge businesses, and pickin' your pocket whilst pointing your nose at the help and tellin' you "It's those dirty Spicks from south of the border." You sure are a dumb ass. If you and other's like you were respectful enough Mexicans wouldn't be in reaction. They only way left open to minorities is the one you leave them...fight back. What dumb asses you bigots are. Legislators have yet to worry they they are looking for votes.. illegals votes.. to keep themselves in office. Do you wish those that work and pay taxes to NOT have the vote? Do you wish, like the snot assed Loyalists in the colonies, that the population NOT have the vote and representation? No, you are in for it, bobb. Unless we get smart quick (and I don't expect that from you) and disarm the militancy I see in minorities, but us white folks, growing up and being respectful and end our bigotry and projection of our OWN failings onto other peoples, we are in for it..you and I. So I don't like your sorry dumb ass. Besides, I've found nothing personally, when I've interacted closely with black people, and brown people, and yellow people, and red people, except people. Some even as dumb as you. The only real differences are your bigotries forcing them to behave in reaction. Then you and yours blaming them for that. Google on "Blue Eyes Brown Eyes" and learn. Kane |

But the alternative to their slavery was to remain in Africa, That's odd. I distinctly remember not only stories of blacks immigrating on their own out of Africa, but them being depicted in European art as landowners, nobles, traders....etc. Even Shakespeare used an African Black as a character, Othello. Please. Let not another idiot start mouthing those absurdities. That was distinctly NOT their alternative. And if it were, what would have been wrong with that? where slavery was also rampant, Driven by Arabs, into a major industry instead of a local issue, who in turn sold them to Europeans. And we whites had slavery at least as far back as Africans did. and many diseases and civil wars continue to this day. Not an enviable existence. The intervention into the body politic of Africa by Europeans had something of a disruptive influence on an already advanced medical and academic based civilization.

You haven't seen South Sacramento, or parts of Phoenix AZ have you? Other big cities boast similar centers of urban affluence and comfort. You need to get out and about. So... they are better off due to slavery than they would be without slavery and their ancestors being brought here. Well, if they had stayed in the pit that Europeans created in some parts of Africa (by the way, not all African nations are as you describe) yes, you are correct. But had their not been and international slave trade the incursions probably wouldn't have taken place either. Why do they deserve any form of reparation then? Because they ancestors labored for free for tens of generations. I'll give you a hint. Do you know what capitol goods are? Do you know what fixed resources are? What do you think the rate of ownership might be between white america and black america and this true indicators of wealth and power? Obviously I think that bringing all those slaves was a very bad idea. With bad consequences. A typical story about immoral acts exacting revenge in ways completely unforeseen. Civil war, etc etc, was a consequence of slavery. It was more a consequence of economic pressures by the north on the south. Slavery was, sadly, a side issue. Do some studying. I am constantly amazed and frequently amused at the ignorance that we Americans allow those with economic power to foist on us. This country is still a colony being exploited as surely as King George did. It's just our own folks doing it too us and the brits never did really get out. Remember when we were, about 15 years ago, all atwitter when it was disclosed in the major media that the Japanese were major investors in US fixed resources, real estate mostly, but with mineral deposits, timber, grazing lands, etc. That was a caluculated bit of propaganda the GOBs (good ol boys) like to put out from time to time. The brits own far more of the US than the Japanese could have ever hoped to. Do you know who the major holder of gold mining interests is in the US. Her name starts with an E and you better courtsey. Bigots, and you ARE one, whether you like to admit it or not, are the tools of these manipulators.

That's just an emotion based rant word. It is a problem. Africa is a continent that exhibits the results of imperialistic colonization and it's long term results. The Arabs began it and the Europeans hopped on board with better technology and more avarice. So, tell us, "gun up the butt," what's your solution? Kane |

You maybe....and it's quasi intellectual given that it is all too limited in scope, misses the point of European and Arab incursions onto the African continent, and the repartitioning of african nations into little tribal feifdoms. He got nowhere near the subject of exploitation of both natural resources in Africa....a huge extraction of a continent's wealth..or should I say a people's wealth, as well as centuries of colonization that also extracted the production of people who were slaves, sometimes actually and often economically, in their own lands. The ONLY reason for the miserable state of some parts of Africa today is the outcome of European incursions. bobb But that of course is more than enough excuse for you to get the shivery chills when you see a black person in "your" country. And those Mexicans, my oh my, they are surely invaders. Kane |

But have suffered the result. Or, may have benefited. There is no way to prove it either way, and I believe that proof is very important here. The Irish potato famine was by all measure a "bad thing" and my ancestors suffered as a result. Certainly the English share some responsibility for their suffering, but they don't owe me anything. I am most likely better off that my forbearers suffered, as my life, and as the lives of every descendant of slave or immigrant, is for the better. If you had a large valuable inheretance due you earned by the labors of say your grandfather, and you were diddled out of it because you had little or no political and economic power..well...you get the drift here. Certainly. Punish the guilty, not the people who happen to remind you of the guilty. But the alternative to their slavery was to remain in Africa, snip where slavery was also rampant, Driven by Arabs, into a major industry instead of a local issue, who in turn sold them to Europeans. And we whites had slavery at least as far back as Africans did. Incorrect. Africans bought and sold Africans for centuries prior to any European setting foot on the continent, just as slavery still exists in Africa. Blaming it entirely on whites and Arabs is revisionism. and many diseases and civil wars continue to this day. Not an enviable existence. The intervention into the body politic of Africa by Europeans had something of a disruptive influence on an already advanced medical and academic based civilization. It was not advanced in medicine nor academics. You had people who built Cathedrals and used calculus meet peoples who have no written language, have no concept of numbers and have yet developed the wheel While, just as in other parts of the world, there certainly were such conditions, there were centers of learning and power and commerce that were once the equal and even surpassing the outside world. Africa wasn't much different than anywhere else in the world, and in many ways superior. In the time frame being discussed, this is totally incorrect. What was developed when the Europeans landed in West Africa was a successful slave traded, which the Europeans benefited from. In fact, when the British began to outlaw slavery not only in Britain but in their colonies, it was the Africans who protested the strongest as it was bad for their business. The very generation who wants reparations, would be living in appalling conditions, starvation, illiteracy, civil war etc. From the result of incursions and disruptions by European invaders. Canada, The USA, Australia, Hong Kong etc. all were invaded by Europeans. How do their economies survive? Do you, for instance, understand the history of the Middle East and why we REALLY are there at war today? Africa had a stable political climate with set borders based on tribal allegences and treaties...we Europeans disrupted that according to economic exploitation we saw fit to do. We used rivalries between tribes to set one group over another and THAT is the cause of the current bad conditions. Slave empires in Africa predated major contact with Western Europeans. It is interesting that you use terms like "invasion" when describing the actions of the Europeans but use "rivalries" to describe brutal wars between African tribes. Instead they have air conditioning, tap water, police protection, relative peace, enough food etc, stuff that all of us have in the great USA. They do? You haven't seen South Sacramento, or parts of Phoenix AZ have you? Other big cities boast similar centers of urban affluence and comfort. You need to get out and about. So... they are better off due to slavery than they would be without slavery and their ancestors being brought here. Well, if they had stayed in the pit that Europeans created in some parts of Africa (by the way, not all African nations are as you describe) yes, you are correct. But had their not been and international slave trade the incursions probably wouldn't have taken place either. Virginia is a "pit?" Canada? The slave trade was big business before the Europeans had any part. African leaders were over-joyed to have a new market for their product. Why do they deserve any form of reparation then? Because they ancestors labored for free for tens of generations. I'll give you a hint. Do you know what capitol goods are? Do you know what fixed resources are? So did mine. I'm not demanding any money from the British. What about blacks in the US who owned slaves? What about families who lost sons and fathers in the Civil War? Do they own money as well? What about people that have came to this country 50 years ago? Two years ago? What do you think the rate of ownership might be between white america and black america and this true indicators of wealth and power? I have no idea, and neither do you. To steal money from person A, not because they are guilty, they most certainly are not, only because they LOOK LIKE people who did bad things a century ago and give that stolen property to people who LOOK LIKE people who suffered a century ago is racism pure and simple. Obviously I think that bringing all those slaves was a very bad idea. With bad consequences. A typical story about immoral acts exacting revenge in ways completely unforeseen. Civil war, etc etc, was a consequence of slavery. It was more a consequence of economic pressures by the north on the south. Slavery was, sadly, a side issue. Do some studying.

Her name starts with an E and you better courtsey. Bigots, and you ARE one, whether you like to admit it or not, are the tools of these manipulators. You are the bigot. You believe that people can be given the fruits of one's labor and have it taken away based on their skin color. In fact the natural instinct that underlies bigotry has been a major tool for elitists to gain and maintain power since the middle ages. The greatest crime that the Europeans have ever committed, was the export of Marxist collectivism. This failed orthodoxy has destroyed more Africans than all the colonizing powers combined. In 1960 Africa was a net food exporter and had an economy greater than Asia. Once countries gained their independence they adopted the left socialism that has ruined dozens of countries and continues to rob the people of their ability to support themselves. Have a nice day.
