Oh, it used to be our fault, when we enslaved, beat, hung, raped and burnt them.
Now it's their fault and we're completely innocent because we erased racism long ago.
Got it.

Rudy Giugliani would know something about crime in the cities. He was a 'Honey Badger' when he was running NY.
He didn't give a fu*k! As an WOP himself he didn't hesitate to go after the mob, or anybody else.
His "stop and frisk" policy was effective in reducing crime in NY. Until the commie De Blasio changed all that.
So yeah, I'd listen to Rudy. I'd also listen to Sheriff Clarke from Wisconsin;
[Wash Times] Sheriff Clarke, appearing on "Fox and Friends" to discuss Micah Xavier Johnson, the 25-year-old man accused of ambushing Dallas police officers at a peaceful Black Lives Matter protest, said Mr. Obama uses the bully pulpit after tragedies in ways that sow anger and resentment among the population.
"He's usually popping off at the mouth before he's been briefed or before he knows any of the facts like he did yesterday," the sheriff said regarding Mr. Obama's response to the two black men in Louisiana and Minnesota who were fatally shot by police officers.
"Without any foundation, he talked about racism and disparate treatment and people of color -- all this nonsense," the sheriff continued. "Like I said, he's armed with powerful words and he uses those words irresponsibly. It fuels this sort of anger towards the American police officer. I wish he'd knock it off."
EDIT:

Yep, guess what...bad things happen...to everyone. Slavery existed not only in the US, in the 19th century -- there was feudal system in place in quite a few places in the world. Slavery had been condemned (even though human trafficking continues to this day, now in hiding).
But you can't whine that someone owes you something for generations past.
Many people, millions, had been killed in wars in the past, this is even worse than slavery.
No, ancestors of that feudal, king, or Egyptian Pharaoh, Roman Emperor or whoever "owned" your remote ancestors doesn't owe anyone a jacks*t! Sorry!
No, you ancestors being enslaved is not an excuse to be a thug and a criminal!
No, modern Germans don't owe anyone anything for Nazi's crimes -- Queen of England owes nothing to anyone -- leader of Masai tribe owes nothing for past wars and tresspasses. Sorry! Life doesn't owe you anything.

District of Columbia v. Heller, 554 U.S. 570 (2008), was a landmark case in which the Supreme Court of the United States held in a 5-4 decision that the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution applies to federal enclaves and protects an individual's right to possess a firearm for traditionally lawful purposes, such as self-defense within the home.
Why did you choose not to bold that section? And completely omitted Scalia's opinion that Like most rights, the Second Amendment right is not unlimited. It is not a right to keep and carry any weapon whatsoever in any manner whatsoever and for whatever purpose: While his view that "traditionally lawful" equates to "constitutional" is concerning for many reasons, even this conservative bastion recognized that government/we the people have legitimate authority to regulate firearms ownership and use.
Every gun nut who has ever asserted a right to own firearms to violently oppose government tyranny shares as much responsibility for these five deaths as any other group they are blaming. We are all responsible for the myriad of causes that led to this, but it is simply not acceptable to claim this is the price of freedom. It will takes decades to improve,but it can be done.
What's the NRA saying about this? Wow, a mass-shooting that wasn't in a gun free zone, where the perp specifically targeted armed individuals? A bad guy with a gun that couldn't even be stopped by hundreds of good guys with guns? It took a robot and C4, so perhaps we should all be able to buy those too?

Slavery in Africa:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slavery_in_Africa
Existed forever, with the locals enslaving and selling locals...to various countries inside and outside Africa. Just like it existed all over the world, at different times in the past. Older times...different ways...people had no problem roasting someone in the town square with kids present for entertainment....everywhere in the world. Got to dig up info on Egyptian Pharaohs now, may be I can bring a lawsuit for some damages...

Good news, NRA! The tree of liberty continues to be refreshed! Congratulations for what you hath wrought!
http://www.latimes.com/nation/nationnow/la-na-georgia-911-report-20160708-snap-story.html
A man who called 911 to report a car break-in Friday ambushed a south Georgia police officer dispatched to the scene, sparking a shootout in which both the officer and suspect were wounded, authorities said. Both are expected to survive.
The shooting in Valdosta, just north of the Georgia-Florida state line, happened hours after five police officers were killed Thursday night during an ambush in Dallas.
http://www.latimes.com/nation/nationnow/la-na-tennessee-highway-shooting-20160708-snap-story.html
A black Army veteran accused of shooting indiscriminately at passing cars and police on a Tennessee highway told investigators he was angry about police violence against African Americans, authorities said Friday.
It was one of several spasms of violence across the country this week amid boiling tensions over policing and race.
One woman died and three others, including one police officer, were injured in the rampage early Thursday.
Meanwhile, police said officers have been targeted in Georgia and Missouri in the aftermath of two high-profile killings of black men by law enforcement and the Dallas attack that left five officers dead and seven more wounded. Other departments reported being bombarded with threats and some implemented new policies requiring officers to patrol in pairs.
Civilians also have been caught in the fray. The woman who died in Tennessee was a newspaper carrier driving down the highway.
Jody, pyro, do you guys feel the freedom? Your dream world is here. Better lock and load, amigos. You've earned it.
