Which culture? Do you think black culture is a monolith and promotes the use of violence? That it's ingrained into their "culture?" Come on, man.

No one mentioned race but I see where you are coming from. I think youth culture in general is getting more violent. Even in my almost all white upper middle class high school everyone wanted to be from a ghetto and hold guns and sell drugs.

Yeah. I worked in a virtually-all-white school last year, and a fourth-grader wrote, "I will kill you all" on a bathroom wall.

The girls' bathroom.

I don't know what this world is coming to.

Are you familiar with what a dog whistle is in regards to politics (not an actual, physical, dog whistle, though that's where the term comes from)?

No. Maybe learn what mansplaining is too while you're at it. It doesn't mean "any time a man explains things."
