Funny thing is, Erixon's original post explained the progressive viewpoint. The solution to problems of inner city crime are educating people and lifting them out of poverty. Progressive policies are focused on that.
If you have a complaint about progressive media not focusing enough on black on black crime I would argue that first, we don't really have any progressive media in the USA, and second outside of Fox News the mainstream media is focused on what is going to get them more advertising dollars, not a political agenda. Natalie Holloway and Elizabeth Smart bring the viewers that their advertisers want.
You can't really paint a broader stroke than "educate them and lift them out of poverty". I don't know how to stop it other than march into these cities and declare martial law, but that would be considered racist, even though it would stop the killing. The entire media industry is progressive, they just don't care. Minorities only matter to the left when they can apply them to their talking points. Lowest level of black unemployment in our nation's history, thank you President Trump! Well done!
The thing is you don't have to know how to stop it. What we are already doing is working! As I said earlier murder rates have dropped somewhere between 57% and 70% in our biggest cities over the last 28 years. We just have to not interrupt the trend. Regarding martial law, maybe we should consider the opposite. Like, how about providing a police force that law abiding black americans in the inner cities feel they can trust, call when they need help, and talk to without risk of violence to themselves? And reducing poverty is a broad brush that may need many policies working together to accomplish but poverty is still the #1 cause of crime, not location or race.
This idea that liberals don't care about minorities is the worst kind of projection coming from someone who think we need to send in the military to their neighborhoods to keep them from killing each other. The idea that the media in the US is progressive is ridiculous unless you view the political center somewhere between Fox News and CNN, but outside of US politics CNN, even NY Times would be considered right of center. The idea that CNN and CBS and NBC don't care about minorities because they aren't running sensationalist stories about inner city violence is also ridiculous, especially considering the crisis here is a figment in the collective mind of the MAGA crowd, who don't even live in and rarely go to these places.

Just what is it you are praising DT for? What jobs did he create for this to happen? Just what is it you would like news media to report on? When did Fox news do any story on inner city black crime unless it was a BLM issue? Trump’s claims about the black unemployment rate are somewhat misleading. While it’s undeniable that the rate has hit a new low, it is also true that black unemployment began declining during the Obama administration and has been falling steadily for the past several years. Read more here More facts.... “The impact of all things racial has left neighborhoods divided and segregated and that leads to a perpetuation of things like poverty and lack of opportunity,” says James, adding he would “have to disagree [with anyone] who says that the real African American unemployment situation is 5.9%”. Kansas City may boast an unemployment rate of 3.6%. But take the city’s Blue Hills neighbourhood. Blue Hills is 91% African American and the unemployment rate is 17%. Neighboring Ivanhoe is 86% African American and the unemployment rate is even higher, at 26%. Read more here Unemployment is lower now than in a long time, thanks to President Trump. African Americans have more opportunity under him than ever before, that is what is undeniable. Obama did nothing but further tear open the racial divide in this country. Trump is working hard to fix this nation, unfortunately he has to take a lot of heat arbitrarily simply because he is Repiblican You did not answer the elephant in the room questions just like any good DT supporter usually does. Not a slight shot taken at you but it is what it is. The questions.... Just what is it you are praising DT for? What jobs did he create for this to happen? Please use facts that can be verified not just right wing talking points.

Has there ever been a successful Marxist system in place that was sustainable for large populations, say 370 million people? Hell, has there ever been a successful Marxist system in place ever? As far as I know, there has been no regime in history that has implemented Marxist ideals completely. Therefore, it's just an unproven theory on paper, correct? You're correct, Jimmy. Socialism/Communism has never existed at any point in the past, not it the way Marx envisioned it at least. This is a reason why informed right wingers are frightened about about his idea's and would happily allow book burning of Das Kapital, The Communist Manifesto and Grundrisse. Marx argued the point that socialism is the natural path after capitalism and that's why his name always pops up in times of economic crisis. Also worth pointing out that "Marxism" isn't a system. Socialism/Communism are systems whilst Marxism, at least in my opinion, is a scientific critique of capitalism and a philosophical oversight of the political economy and history. So much to learn from him, it isn't all just about socialism. But it's still just a theory on paper, whereas capitalism has a bit of real world application to show its pros and cons. And this brings us back full circle to what I had said originally about VZ. It's an example that pure socialism is a fail. I also said that there is a "best of both worlds" scenario if people cared enough to get there.

Let's set straight some recent BS from the Liar-In-Chief. Life is easier when we work with the truth. I normally do not post giant walls of text but if we're talking about Trump lying, well.... it's gonna happen. this is just based on what he said the other day. Enjoy.
‘Catch-and-Release’ Trump said: “We have a real problem. We have catch-and-release. You catch a criminal, and you have to release him.”
The facts: That’s not accurate. The U.S. does not have to release criminals; in fact, it is required to detain certain criminals.
Those attempting to enter the U.S. without “valid entry documents” or “by fraud or misrepresentation” must be detained pending an expedited removal proceeding, as explained in a 2018 report by the Congressional Research Service. And they are subject to deportation whether they have a criminal record or not.
‘Chain Migration Story’ Trump said: “You have chain migration. Where a bad person comes in, brings 22 or 23 or 35 of his family members — because he has his mother, his grandmother, his sister, his cousin, his uncle — they’re all in. You know what happened on the West Side Highway. That young wise guy drove over and killed eight people and horribly injured — nobody talks about that — horribly, like loss of legs and arms. … He had many people brought in because he was in the United States. It’s called chain migration.”
The facts: Trump is referring to Sayfullo Saipov, a Uzbekistan national who has been charged in a 2017 terrorist attack in New York City that killed eight people and injured 11 others. Trump has repeatedly claimed that Saipov used “chain migration” to bring 22 people with him into the United States. There’s no evidence that Saipov brought even one relative to the country.
'Diversity Immigration Visa' Trump said: “And then you have the lottery. It’s a horror show, because when countries put people into the lottery, they’re not putting you in; they’re putting some very bad people in the lottery. It’s common sense. If I ran a country, and if I have a lottery system of people going to the United States, I’m not going to put in my stars; I’m going to put in people I don’t want. The lottery system’s a disaster. I’m stuck with it.”
The facts: The president has repeatedly misrepresented how the Diversity Immigrant Visa Program works. Under the program, the Department of State randomly selects up to 50,000 qualified applicants from countries with low rates of immigration to the United States. Contrary to Trump’s claim, countries do not “put in people” for visas; the individuals themselves apply. And those selected in the “lottery,” as Trump calls it, must pass an extensive background check before they are given green cards, or legal permanent resident status.
'Southwest Border Apprehensions' Trump said: “So we have far more people trying to get into our country today than probably we’ve ever had before.”
The facts: The number of people who try to enter the U.S. illegally each year is unknown, but federal authorities use the number of apprehensions to gauge changes in illegal immigration. Southwest border apprehensions totaled 396,579 in fiscal year 2018, which was up from 303,916 in fiscal 2017. Still, the 2018 figure is down 76 percent from the peak of 1.64 million apprehensions in fiscal 2000, according to Border Patrol data. (For more, see our updated story, “Illegal Immigration Statistics.”)
'Illegal Drugs at the Border' Trump said: “But one of the things I said I have to do and I want to do is border security, because we have tremendous amounts of drugs flowing into our country, much of it coming from the southern border. When you look and when you listen to politicians — in particular certain Democrats — they say it all comes through the port of entry. It’s wrong. It’s wrong. It’s just a lie. It’s all a lie.”
The facts: The Drug Enforcement Administration — not just “certain Democrats” — say that Mexican cartels “transport the bulk of their drugs over the Southwest Border through ports of entry (POEs) using passenger vehicles or tractor trailers.” This is particularly true for heroin and fentanyl — two opioids that Trump mentioned in his remarks. According to U.S. Customs and Border Protection drug seizure statistics for fiscal year 2018, which ended Sept. 30, 2018, 90 percent of heroin seizures occurred at legal ports of entry in the first 11 months and 80 percent of fentanyl in the first 10 months. “A small percentage of all heroin seized by CBP along the land border was between Ports of Entry,” the DEA said in its 2018 National Drug Threat Assessment.
'Human Trafficking at the Border' Trump said: “If you’re going to have drugs pouring across the border, if you’re going to have human traffickers pouring across the border in areas where we have no protection, in areas where we don’t have a barrier, then very hard to make America great again.”
The facts: There’s no data on how many are smuggled illegally across the border with Mexico for human trafficking, as we said in our story when Trump made a similar claim in his State of the Union address. But experts told us legal ports are the typical mode of entry in the bulk of the cases they deal with concerning foreign nationals. A spokesperson for Polaris, which operates the National Human Trafficking Hotline, told us “the vast majority of people are coming through legal ports of entry.” That’s based on statistics the group has compiled from the calls it receives through the hotline.
In addition, the United Nations’ International Organization on Migration has found that “nearly 80% of international human trafficking journeys cross through official border points, such as airports and land border control points,” based on 10 years’ worth of cases on which the IOM has assisted.
'Paying for the Border Wall' Trump said: “And, by the way, the USMCA, from Mexico — that’s United States, Mexico, Canada — that’s where the money’s coming from, not directly, but indirectly, for the wall. And nobody wants to talk about that.”
The facts: The White House has sought as much as $25 billion for the wall, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection has estimated that it will cost $18 billion in the first 10 years of construction. The president has made the claim — which we have debunked on many occasions — that the revenue generated from the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement, or USMCA, will indirectly pay for the wall. But the White House has provided no analysis to support the president’s claim, and trade experts we interviewed said it’s not possible.
The agreement — which was signed by the leaders of all three countries in November, but has yet to be approved by Congress — represents an arguably slightly better deal for the U.S. than the current North American Free Trade Agreement, experts told us, but not enough to generate enough federal revenues to pay for the wall.
‘Wall’ Construction, So Far Trump said: “I could do the wall over a longer period of time. I didn’t need to do this. But I’d rather do it much faster. And I don’t have to do it for the election. I’ve already done a lot of wall for the election — 2020.”
The facts: Despite the president’s claim that he has “already done a lot of the wall,” very little new fencing has been constructed, and none of it is the type Trump promised during the campaign. As we have written, Congress last year approved $1.6 billion to replace existing barriers and add some fencing in new areas. But Congress stated that the money can only be used to build “operationally effective designs deployed as of the date of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2017, [May 5, 2017] such as currently deployed steel bollard designs, that prioritize agent safety.” That language prohibits the administration from building any of the wall prototypes that the administration had designed and that the president toured last year in California.
Crime in El Paso Trump said: “The other night I was in El Paso. We had a tremendous crowd and — tremendous crowd. And I asked the people, many of whom were from El Paso … I said, ‘Let me ask you the — as a crowd, when the wall went up, was it better?’ You were there, some of you. It was not only better; it was like 100 percent better.”
The facts: Trump continues to peddle the false claim that construction of a fence in El Paso transformed the border city from one of the most dangerous in the country to one of the safest. Those from El Paso in the crowd may have agreed with the president, but as we have written, crime statistics from the FBI contradict the president’s narrative.
El Paso has never been one of the most dangerous cities in the country. The city had the third lowest violent crime rate among 35 U.S. cities with a population over 500,000 in 2005, 2006 and 2007 – before construction of 57 miles of fencing started in the El Paso sector in mid-2008. Nor was there an “immediate” or “overnight” drop in violent crime in El Paso after the fence was constructed, as the president has said. In fact, the city’s violent crime rate increased 5.5 percent from 2007 to 2010 — the years before and after construction of the fence, which began in mid-2008 and was completed in mid-2009. Looking from 2006 to 2011 — two years before the fence construction began and two years after it was finished — the violent crime rate increased about 9.6 percent.
El Paso Murders Trump said: “In El Paso, they have close to 2,000 murders right on the other side of the wall. And they had 23 murders. It’s a lot of murders. But it’s not close to 2,000 murders, right on the other side of the wall, in Mexico. So everyone knows that walls work.”
The facts: There were 1,247 murders in Juarez, Mexico, in 2018, according to El Diario, while just across the border, El Paso police reported 23 murders. But that’s not evidence that “walls work.” While there has long been a high number of murders in Juarez, the number of murders in El Paso has remained relatively low among U.S. cities, both before and after the fence.
Total Trade Deficit Trump said: “You saw last month, the trade deficit went way down.”
The facts: Trump made this same misleading claim at a rally in El Paso, Texas, this week. It’s true that the monthly goods and services trade deficit was $49.3 billion in November, down $6.4 billion from $55.7 billion in October, according to Bureau of Economic Analysis figures. But the October trade deficit was the highest monthly deficit in 10 years. Also, the November monthly figure was still higher than it was at the same point in 2017 and 2016.
Overall, the trade deficit is up 20.3 percent for the 12 months ending in November, compared with 2016, the year before Trump took office.
Trade Deficit with China Trump said: “We’ve been losing on average $375 billion a year with China. Lot of people think it’s $506 billion. Some people think it’s much more than that.”
The facts: Trump has been exaggerating the U.S. trade deficit with China since the 2016 election. The goods-and-services trade deficit with China averaged almost $222 billion between 1999 and 2017, according to BEA data. The deficit with China was $275 billion through the first three quarters of 2018, which is the most recent BEA data available.

Capitalism was just an idea until the then revolutionaries overthrew Feudalism and implemented a new system. I suppose I'll just repeat what I've already said about Venezuela. Venezuela has NEVER been anywhere near a socialist system. It's economy has always been overwhelmingly privatized apart from an couple of oil companies that were merged into a state owned enterprise. You can have strong welfare policies within capitalism but, you cannot truly have the best of both in their purest forms. It's impossible. Venezuela tried to be a little bit socialist and look at how that turned out.

The litteraly nationalized an oil company and used the money to lift 2/3 of the population out of poverty. That isn't an attempt at socialism, it's just redistribution of wealth and that is why I criticized Chavez and Maduro a few weeks back in this thread. They didn't go far enough.

Unemployment is lower now than in a long time, thanks to President Trump. African Americans have more opportunity under him than ever before, that is what is undeniable. Obama did nothing but further tear open the racial divide in this country. Trump is working hard to fix this nation, unfortunately he has to take a lot of heat arbitrarily simply because he is Repiblican You mean thank you Obama. Trump is the beneficiary of a set table by the administration before him. The "racial divide" was fueled by racists themselves and people like Trump and his birtherism BS. And Working hard my ass, he watches TV all day. Worse than that, he is a traitor. Obama did nothing to help the economy of this nation, quite the opposite. Since trump came into office, he has gotten companies to stop leaving the country, and boosted various industries resulting in millions of create jobs since he was elected. You think he is a traitor because he wants to stop drugs and gangs from infesting the US, if that is your definition of traitor, I guess I'll accept that. There had not been one ounce of proof that Russia meddled in the election, only paltry indictments that had nothing to do with actual Russia collusion. Frankly trump should pardon anyone that is convicted. Even if it was proven that Russia did meddle in the election, I don't care because whatever it takes to avoid electing someone like Hillary, or now, some nutcase like that kid from nyc.

You're either trolling or living in Rush Limbaugh's studio.
Our own government - The Trump Administration - has indicted more than a few people connected to Russian meddling.
What we don't know is what evidence directly links Trump, himself, to Russian meddling. Everything that is public is circumstantial, but what Mueller knows has not been made public.
And probably never will be.

You don't even understand why I call him a traitor. But i'll say this, your assumption couldn't be more off base.

The number of jobs created is probably 1000 times that. IBM has been moving off shore since the 80s. I was one laid off as an ibm contractor, under Obama. Jobs are readily available, trump is fighting a tough battle to keep our country safe, he is doing a top notch job. That is why he was elected, and why he will be elected again.

Every metric about "keeping our country safe" has shown that our country has been getting safer for either years or decades (EDIT: Except the frequency of mass shootings which has continued to get worse). Please show one metric that shows things were getting worse until 2017 when they started improving. One.

If Trump wins this illegal alien battle, things will cool off with drugs and the gangs pouring in. In case you didn't know, the drug industry is bring polluted with fentanyl, which is killing thousands of young kids and adults, FAR more than all the guns in the country are. That is why the southern border is exactly that, a national emergency.
