Never said that either

2018-10-14 00:11:35 UTC  

said, quote

"a large majority of latino and black minority groups are criminal, lazy, immoral, and anti American"

2018-10-14 00:11:50 UTC  

Well i didn't, and he probably misspoke

2018-10-14 00:11:53 UTC  

I said in my personal experience

2018-10-14 00:11:54 UTC  

I encourage the anti-American bit, to be fair

2018-10-14 00:11:59 UTC  

In ghettos

2018-10-14 00:12:08 UTC  

And only ghettos

2018-10-14 00:12:13 UTC  

Ghettos being economically impoverished regions?

2018-10-14 00:12:17 UTC  

Yes

2018-10-14 00:12:20 UTC  

Okay

2018-10-14 00:12:27 UTC  

Shitty people tend to be more criminal, doesn't mean all or even most shitty people are criminals

2018-10-14 00:12:32 UTC  

And you're saying that, outside of ghettos, minority groups don't exhibit those traits?

2018-10-14 00:12:36 UTC  

Right, emyia?

2018-10-14 00:12:42 UTC  

or

2018-10-14 00:12:46 UTC  

Don't exhibit them to the same degree**

2018-10-14 00:13:35 UTC  

I am not saying that, I am only speaking on my experiences. As for outside of these areas I dont full well know but I do know they have disproportionately high crime rates for being such a small part of the population

2018-10-14 00:14:07 UTC  

In suburban communities, as the one I now live in these traits I have found less common

2018-10-14 00:14:20 UTC  

But I have only lived in three suburban areas

2018-10-14 00:14:21 UTC  

Suburban communities being more economically prosperous

2018-10-14 00:14:24 UTC  

I cant speak for all

2018-10-14 00:14:28 UTC  

Yes

2018-10-14 00:14:51 UTC  

So you're saying that said traits are found commonly within impoverished regions

2018-10-14 00:14:58 UTC  

but not as much in more affluent locations

2018-10-14 00:15:01 UTC  

More or less

2018-10-14 00:15:22 UTC  

While also saying minority groups are often more economically troubled than majority groups

2018-10-14 00:15:35 UTC  

Considering disproportional representation in poorer demographics

2018-10-14 00:15:57 UTC  

Do you believe class could be a factor?

2018-10-14 00:16:19 UTC  

And if so (or even if you don't, honestly), have you ever considered the economic history of minority groups?

2018-10-14 00:16:25 UTC  

I do believe it can be a factor

2018-10-14 00:16:40 UTC  

I never said race or location was the only factor

2018-10-14 00:16:43 UTC  

Or of lingering societal attitudes, even to this day (albeit de facto, rather than de jure), which might contribute?

2018-10-14 00:16:44 UTC  

I said the opposite

2018-10-14 00:17:01 UTC  

Yep I can agree to that as well

2018-10-14 00:17:13 UTC  

"have you ever considered the economic history of minority groups?"

Hungary is far poorer than blacks in the United States

2018-10-14 00:17:21 UTC  

*as a nation

2018-10-14 00:17:27 UTC  

Hungarians are not that criminal

2018-10-14 00:17:32 UTC  

Okay? The GDP overall is lower

2018-10-14 00:17:36 UTC  

and income

2018-10-14 00:17:39 UTC  

and standard of living

2018-10-14 00:17:42 UTC  

and income, true
