There IS a deeper cause. The total and complete, LBJ 'Great Society' destruction of the African American family. AfAm fathers were REPLACED by an entitlement check...big Daddy Government--who provided free food; housing; total support. We are on the Third or fourth generation of 'Generational Welfare' which rewarded fractured familes (better off 'benefit wise' if a 'single mom head of household' as opposed to a married, nuclear family.
Almost fifty years of that mindset has given us the feral "youth" of today. How many of the "youth" (note NOT perps) came from two parent families that live off a paycheck instead of a welfare check?
Standing in a circle and singing ''Kumbaya" is not the answer...that has been tried. Its failed. The entitlements that bred this need ceased.

Wow and I was thinking of going to the Wisconsin state fair tonight. Looks like I'll be cancelling my plans.
Tonight you'll be okay. There aren't any black music acts to draw all the rif-raf.

Thank goodness for that.
I wonder who you are? Are you one of those white folks that don't know any blacks so you think you know all blacks? Or are you an embarrassed black-folk that's just watching your own culture destroy your own people and anyone else that gets too close?
Either way, your opinion and understanding of the "root cause" will not detour the self imposed destruction of their own humanity.

Why should they feel hopeless?
The Welfare State will pay them for each child they have, will give them opportunities based solely on the color of their skin, will educate them because of bleeding-heart dreamers who live in a world filled with rainbows and ponies!!!
The people that want to succeed try and usually do. And then they're ostracized and criticized by those who do nothing and milk the system. Success in minority communities often breeds hatred from within.

I disagree.
We are divided...NOT by race. That concept is so easy to foist upon the populace. The divide is producers (taxpayers) vs. those (who 'take'--and have been raised with the thought they are 'entitled' to take...a welfare babymama or a tax, tax, tax pol. Same difference.)

Welfare state? How many old people rely on SS for medicine and medical help?

The odds of a white being attacked by a black are 9 to 1..
the fact black youth unemployment is so high???? really.....how about their lack of respect, attitudes, grammar, lack of propper fitting pants, "somebody owes me" attitude, "Im gonna get mine" attitude, etc..etc..etc..
did you know there have been numerous studies over the last 30 years that show:
1. a much higher % of inmates nationwide are black in relation to population than whites
2. the rate of violent crimes (murder, rape, armed robbery) among black Offenders BLOWS AWAY ANY OTHER GROUP, asian or native american or latino or white...
