Look, genetics are not responsible for culturally learned behaviour. If you don't even know this then I am not surprised you hold the views that you do... wealthy, well raised and well educated black people don't have some inherent itch to be criminals. Poor, underprivileged, undereducated white people are more likely to commit crimes than their more priveledged counterparts... you're looking at genes when you should be looking at social status, culture, education and inequality.

I won't be continuing this conversation as we're obviously not changing each others minds but I hope I might have at least given you something to think about.

I wish you both all the best and I hope you one day become friends with someone racially different to you who might help to change your mind ✌🏼 Peace and God bless.

We're looking at different things, but only because I've already seen what you're pointing at, and I'm trying to give you the rest of the picture. You're looking at crime, I'm looking at general behavior, though it's good to recognize the two are related. And you're looking at individuals to say there are differences, where I'm saying that the behavior of crowds of genetically similar people are completely predictable, and vary according to genetics.

It's true that poor people commit more crime than rich people of the same race. But it's also true that Blacks commit more crime than Whites or East Asians, regardless of socioeconomic factors. Meaning the richest Blacks commit more crime than the poorest Whites or East Asians. And that should be expected, because they're not in Africa where their natural behavior is widely accepted.

People are the way they are not only because of their present conditions, but because of the conditions which helped to shape their ancestors for tens of thousands of years. That's why African descendants don't save money, farm, work, take care of their kids, and their houses look like shit, no matter how much money they're given. Because they've never had to worry about anything like that, and they just got dropped in this completely alien environment like 5 minutes ago, being told they should be equal inheritors of a land that will simply keep providing for them infinitely. In sub Saharan Africa for all of their recorded history, life has been simple because of an abundance of natural resources. They've never had to invent anything, never had to farm or save or perform commerce or cooperate in a way that was necessary for the building of civilization. Scarcity is something they've never dealt with. That's where they belong, that's their home.
