When there is a significant correlation between race and culture, the politically correct reaction is to completely ignore glaring truths and seek solutions in other arenas.
There is a glaring truth that we overlook in these statistical facts: "Among whites, 77 percent of gun deaths are suicides. But among black Americans, 82 percent of gun deaths are homicides."
Another truth? That the majority of those homicides of black Americans are committed by other black Americans.
Will we openly examine the nature of the "black culture" and how it might affect these numbers? Absolutely not, at least not if the PC police have any say... and the problem doesn't get solved.
Who's the racist? He who asks, or he who demand we don't ask? |

TO REMEMBER |
| Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
