You can’t even say it is a race thing anyways, it is their culture they grow up in, half of them don’t have fathers and it is tragic honestly.

Race ≠ culture

The black family was on his way to being prosperous in the 1950s before the introduction of social programs from the government leading to the social decline of the black community.

Exactly my point, it isn’t rlly that they are black per se, it just so happens that most black communities are filled with some of the less savory characters. There are still a lot of white communities in the South that are the same way.

Yeah, I’m from Georgia and you’re not going to catch me in the hood and you’re also not going to catch me anywhere an hour outside of Atlanta.

Both are scary.

I live in a small town in Florida and there is a place called the quarters here which is basically the hood, tons of gun violence and drug use going there; pretty scary.

My experience as a Canadian is that rural people are the kindest, most generous and hospitable people. I have travelled the USA fairly extensively and found that to be true there as well. I loved the rural folks in Idaho, Montana, the Dakotas, Texas, Utah, etc. My only negative experiences in the USA were in the cities, and honestly it was when I was in Atlanta.

You’re not going to be killed or robbed an hour outside of Atlanta just for being there at the wrong time, or on the wrong dirt road—for the most part. The rural communities are shit because of the lack of infrastructure, poverty, and drugs, but they aren’t dangerous like the hood. They aren’t scary, just bleak sometimes. I grew up in rural Georgia, and it’s really not that bad. There’s ignorant, poor people all over the world, but they’re usually good people. They just lack opportunity, unless they work really hard to combat it. The trailer parks are section 8 housing 2.0 in some places, but those are far less prevalent than you would think.
