I'm seriously asking, because I don't think black people who grew up in stable 2 parent homes with discipline and a push for education are causing these issues.

Yes, we did have this issue 60 years ago. The difference is that whites still had balls and didn't care if some jackass called them racist because they were in fact racist. Crime was punished harshly and private citizens could deal with crime easily on their own without worrying about some leftist prosecuting them for vigilantism.
We removed every major safeguard in our criminal system and everyone knows it. So the violent criminals who may not have acted previously now know they can get away with it and do so with impunity.
This is why they do everything in NYC and then drive to Florida to sell it. They get arrested and punished in Florida while they get free reign in NYC.
With regards to culture, that is always downstream of behavioral genetics. Your behavior is governed by genetics. For example, blacks have a much higher percentage of the population with the 2-repeat allele of the MAOA gene than any other race. That gene is directly responsible for a significantly increased risk of violent crime in that person.

There has been a great deal of research examining the link between a polymorphism in the promoter region of the MAOA gene and antisocial phenotypes. The results of these studies have consistently revealed that low activity MAOA alleles are related to antisocial behaviors for males who were maltreated as children. Recently, though, some evidence has emerged indicating that a rare allele of the MAOA gene-that is, the 2-repeat allele-may have effects on violence that are independent of the environment. The current study builds on this research and examines the association between the 2-repeat allele and shooting and stabbing behaviors in a sample of males drawn from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health. Analyses revealed that African-American males who carry the 2-repeat allele are significantly more likely than all other genotypes to engage in shooting and stabbing behaviors and to report having multiple shooting and stabbing victims. The limitations of the study are discussed and suggestions for future research are offered.

Beaver claims that 2R alone may be strong enough to account for a significant amount of violent behavior in African American men. But he doesn't think this rare gene version explains all of the variation between men who have and don't have severe antisocial traits. As he puts it, "Even if MAOA-2R is causally linked with antisocial behaviors, it is not common enough in African Americans to solely account for crime rates in blacks"
Quote:
Choe's study is the first to demonstrate that ethnic minority children African Americans, not just Caucasians with a low-expression MAOA gene variant who face harsh discipline have an increased risk for antisocial behavior. Choe's team published the effects of just the 3R variant, excluding five African American participants in their study carrying the 2R version. Curious about possibly different effects of 2R, they then reanalyzed the data to include the five black males with 2R. The findings remained the same. Combining the boys with 2R the highest risk variant and those with the less severe risky 3R did not change the differences the researchers found between the 3R and 4R variants. The five males with 2R comprised a very small sample, but the fact that both low-activity MAOA variants, 2R and 3R, interacted with an environmental factor punitive discipline at specific ages, or developmental milestones, is noteworthy. It suggests the effects of MAOA-2R on antisocial behaviors are partly mediated by non-genetic factors.
Choe stresses that genetic influences on social behaviors such as juvenile delinquency cannot be fully understood outside the context of social circumstances. He is referring not only to parenting styles, but also to the in utero environment of the unborn fetus. As he explains, compared to the white youth in his study, the African Americans were more likely to grow up in poorer, urban, dangerous neighborhoods. A high percentage of these youth are being raised by single mothers, and they grow up without the attention found in most middle-class homes. Choe acknowledges the role of genes in behavior, but he clearly thinks that environmental factors contribute substantially to ethnic differences in antisocial behaviors. As he points out, the white kids in the sample were also poor, but they lived in low-income suburban communities, not in densely concentrated inner cities. The suburbs pose less of a risk than urban communities for group delinquent behavior

You're making a HUGE leap from that abstract to "black people are predisposed to being violent."
This:Quote:

doesn't say what you're claiming. It is strictly limited to, "African-American males who carry the 2-repeat allele," which is, "a rare allele of the MAOA gene." So a very small subset of black people might be predisposed to violence, but that is much different than all black people in general.
Even that is also a claim that is only valid within the limits of the study, which we don't know because you only published the abstract. Without being able to review the paywalled paper, it's really difficult to dig into the findings and what those caveats are.
One of them is undoubtedly environmental factors, and there is other evidence to suggest that paternal closeness moderates the relationship between the 2R allele and delinquency. It would make sense that there is a disproportionate relationship with violence when blacks are less likely to have present father figures if that is not controlled for.
And even the author of that study says you're drawing the wrong conclusion.Quote:

I think they play a decent role here. Over the decades look at what their policies have done to the black communities. Almost every one is a wasteland...with a large % hooked on the govt teet. There are almost no fathers present. They own almost no businesses. Schools are a disaster and literacy rates are shockingly bad. Crime is through the roof. And degeneracy is lauded. It was not always this way...even post slavery on through segregation, the gap was much smaller between average whites and blacks. Thomas Sowell (and very few others) does a great job of backing this up with actual data and statistics.
On top of that...the left has taken a very pro-criminal, anti-law and order approach. Follow the crime thread on the Houston board. Almost ZERO of these murderers should have been out on the streets.
I don't disagree entirely with you, just saying, the left has not helped.
The Democrat issue comes into play with regards to the punishment of crime but not who actually commits the most crime. The former can be fixed but the latter cannot. The former is a cultural one while the latter is a racial one.
El Salvador policy fixes the first one. Of course this by default will fix the second one because it will guaranteed lock up far more blacks on a per capita basis.
LBJ reportedly said "I'll have those n-ers voting democrat for 200 years"...did he fail?

Except it is. You are correct that it is primarily a race issue, but those that say it is a democrat issue are also correct because of the location and frequency of the majority of crimes, and the fact that blacks vote well over 90% democrat and the fact that it is democrat policies that continue to make the problem worse.

Kansas City Police Chief Stacey Graves said Thursday that the shooting that left 22 people with gunshot wounds and a woman dead started as a dispute between several people at the Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl Victory Parade and Rally.
Kansas City leaders and police continue working to sort through evidence in Wednesday's Kansas City Chiefs parade and rally shooting at Union Station.
The Jackson County Family Court division announced Friday that the two teens taken into custody in connection with that shooting have been charged as juveniles.
In a statement, a spokesperson for the Family Court Division said the teens have been detained at the Juvenile Detention Center "on gun-related and resisting arrest charges."
The spokesperson went on to say that it is anticipated that additional charges will be filed in the future as the Kansas City Police Department investigation continues.
Because of their status as juveniles, no other information can be released.

Drugs
Rival gangs

As usual, Democrats will blame these shootings on Republicans. On Instagram, my acquittance shared a TikTok video from Brittany Packnett Cunningham, who said said that the shooting at the Kansas City Parade is what happens when Cowards are in charge. She claimed how Missouri Governor Mike Parson ran in fear from this shooting and how US Senator Josh Hawley ran in fear from the January 6 United States Capitol attack.
