Sure, there's no doubt that the black youth culture in many inner cities has been infected with an excessive glorification of criminality for decades now, and that this situation has gotten worse in metros with stark contrasts in wealth between the city and the suburbs. What began as a somewhat natural reaction to the economic and racial oppression prevalent before the civil rights movement has indeed spiraled out of control.

But it's ridiculous to blame that all on any one race or culture. That's all I'm saying. It's understandable that people would want to move out of a bad neighborhood, but what are you going to when the blight creeps up to Sterling Heights?
