In a projection based upon current trends, and starting from the year 2006, a new report suggests that some 33,000 Brazilian teenagers will die as a result of violence by the year 2012, with the the majority of victims likely to be poor, uneducated black males.
This is not dissimilar to South Africa, the inner cities of the US, and parts of the UK such as London (Peckham)or Manchester (Cheetham Hill) where Black on Black killing rates are far higher than the murder rates amongst other ethnic groups in the larger country.
There has to be answers to the almost inevitable collapse of black societies, into corruption, crime and violence, which seems to be near universal where ever you look, but while we are obsessed by PC driven approaches we are not likely to find them.
I blogged on this subject in 2007, and depressingly most indicators suggest that things have got worse, not better, since then. President Obama may prove to be the exception that proves the rule, but lets hope that maybe the the 21st century plague of predominantly black-on-black crime is just a blip, because otherwise we are condemned to a slow collapse of all our societies as they succumb to the problems coming out of the ghettos.

It's nothing but bleak news when we talk about the black community areas. It seems to stem from a lack of educational achievement (or even pride in achievement), within the black community.
ReplyDeleteIt is all rather depressing because desegregation, which was supposed to lift black attainmant and aspiration levels up, appears to have completely demoralised them.
Now they just seem to want to join gangs or have babies, rather than try to get the education which is thekey to a better life.
It seems to be a worldwide issue, they get to their teens, and then large numbers of them (especially boys) just give up on schooling as a way to get on .... no real credible explanation is offered by the PC sociologists, unless there are IQ Issues which I won't discuss again, cos of their controversial nature i.e. the PC brigade refuse to allow it as a discussion point.
