Woodpeckerhead is brainwashed by college professors. He has never lived amongst the black. Get a job at GE and move to East Cleveland. Experience the culture.
-
I must have missed these brainwashing liberal professors you keep going on about. I don't believe there were any in my department....
I got a co-op offer from GE, but it wasn't at that plant. I might have accepted if it was, but I heard it was a very shitty place.

I'm not sure you've spent any time in predominantly african american communities. After all most african Americans who attain an upper middle class or upper class economic status choose to leave those communities and move to other communities. I'm not sure those people are relevant to this conversation.
How are they not relevant? They're a major counterpoint to your argument...

Because they tend not to live in "black" communities.

Yes but according to your post they were there at one point.

Most affluent black families are gentrified. Then there is the suddenly rich. I'm pretty sure most upper class families wouldn't love it if Lil Wayne moved in next door
-
They don't have to be affluent. Just middle class or a little better. That would work for this argument too. According to your post, they would have also come from these black communities.
-
What's your point woody do you know? It's pretty common that as more blacks become middle class and start moving out to the suburbs the other inhabitants of those suburbs start moving further out. It's that reason that formerly nice suburban areas like garfield heights are now considered sort of crappy areas. That process takes a while but it always happens
-
Euclid was a nice suburb when I was a kid. My uncle moved out there. I lived in Cleveland near the West Side Market and we used to love going over there for Clam Bakes, etc. Felt like the country. Now its just another inner ring ghetto.
-
Yeah Euclid is pretty crappy and other traditionally affluent communities on the east side are inexorably falling victim to that as well. Take shaker heights for instance. Once only the richest lived there and now despite there still being some really nice old housing and beautiful schools it's slowly becoming an undesirable place to live. Crime is up. School performance is down. Cleveland heights is another. Beachwood still has some years but pretty soon the affluent folk of Beachwood will start moving out to orange and beyond
-
Shaker is going down fast. Cleveland Heights just had that Restaurant/Bar owner murdered by them black thugs from Cleveland. It's like cancer, spreading fast and no cure.

se Canton is becoming a place you do not drive through in places.
I did, once, meeting my fiance at a swim party, obviously decades ago,
and two grade school black kids through rocks at my truck when I realized
I made a wrong turn.
After two rocks, I got out and said "HEY, what did I do? I'm lost, stop throwing
rocks at me!"
And their mom stomped out of the front door, and was screaming that she was going
to call the poiice because I was harrassing her kids....
She said that after I told her right after she came off the porch, that her boys were
throwing rocks at my truck.
Goin downhill. Cysko nailed it. And woodpecker is trying to argue based on whinyness because
he never knows what he's talking about.

So these neighborhoods are going downhill because of "black culture". But those black families in middle class and above situations, they don't have "black culture". So really the "black" part has little to do with it but the socioeconomic status does...

Socioeconomic status does play a part, but it is in no way justification for unlawful actions or the reason they are stuck in the "ghetto". There is a way out. The only thing holding an individual back is themselves and the choices they make.
There is a mentality and trend growing that there is a certain level of entitlement with those at lower income levels. The protests against fast food(FF) chains and wanting $15.00 an hour for entry-level work is a perfect example. FF jobs, the majority, are entry-level, for the part-time high school or college kids. Over the last two decades, seniors have found comfortable employment to supplement social security. However, for the rest, they are expecting an employer to compensate for their inability, their lack of motivation, and the plethora of bad life choices that have led them to feel that FF employment is all that is out there. No FF chain should be forced to pay above a job grade just because the media wants to jump on the topic trying to create sympathy. Employers, regardless of the associate and their current level of income should not be forced to compensate for the poor choices that an associate makes.
This is the mentality that is being nurtured and cradled. It is wrong and is wrong of the media to try and gain social support.

I pretty much agree with most of that

add a political motive - like keeping the free shit flowing,
and you can truly blame Obama.
(read - liberal ideology)

Didn't you know? You can already blame Obama for everything!

Obamao's racist big mouth, and worse, his and holder's actions, have encouraged
the BLACK subculture problems to be worse.
Most of it started with the dirtbag LBJ and his ideas to make
poor blacks depenent.
Bill Cosby talks about it. Dr. Ben Carson talks about it.
I can name more.
They talk about the serious problems that have arisen in the
subculture of black community, that has become dependent,
and lackluster, and willingly dependent on the gov.
Naturally, woodypeckerhead denies it. Sad.
