But that's what you get with white kids separate from other kids. Crime.

[Testm0nkey]

no you get problems that inevitably happen in communities like that

drugs, drug related crime. but yeah a bunch of your kids dieing of heroin ods you can laugh that off
meth or whatever it was was Plano, Heroin was my Suburb, meth is the SW Lubbock tradition

oh yeah i forgot the hit and runs and reckless driving. my last year in HS 6 kids (at least) in my grade alone died in car accidents (racing). they were all seperate incidents

[impala454]

i'm afraid i don't see the correlation.

so you're saying if minorities come into a community, the white people don't do drugs?

[Testm0nkey]

no im saying it seems every Pleasantville like Suburb is striving for white bread perfection but look like inner city flop houses in reality

[impala454]

so southlake looks like an inner city flop house?

Well the way I see is that, when there's a distinct segregation amongst races, there will always be a problem with racial stereotypes. If we take Mexicans (which I take there's a lot of in Texas), many people associate them with crime, drugs, and illegal immigrants. Though it is much more difficult to actually pin point a stereotype for Caucasians. The reason for this is because that there are many different kinds of white people. You see caucasians in the media with a variety of different jobs from CEO of companies to drug dealers. Though this image is typically not associated with many other races in this country. So when there is racially segregated communities, we tend to stipulate our stereotype onto individuals in those communities. Though you must ask what is the benefit of racial diversity. I think by 'preserving' a so-called way of living, or rather more accurately, a way of thinking, you end up with a cultural maoseleum where there isn't any progression. The people live as they had say 50, 60 years ago, and their views have not changed since then. I don't know, for me that seems like a scary and dangerous thing.

goddamn impala. it doesnt LOOK like one to your eyes but in all reality its very much like one. i wasnt talking about southlake in particular just "closed off" suburbs as typically they have pretty rampant drug use amongst teens

plano?

There's also a big difference between Southlake and the rest of these affluent suburbs with drug problems.

Plano is huge. Most of these suburbs have a huge population. Southlake only has 25,000 people. It has that small-town atmosphere to it, and for that, I think it won't have the typical drug problems the other places have.

Plano is split between East Plano and West Plano. Most of your suburban middle/upper class whites live in West Plano. They used to live in East Plano but because of white flight no one lives there anymore but Mexicans. I'm sure East Plano skews the drug statistics dramatically.

White people mainly stick to weed and shrooms, drugs which have never hurt anyone, and a little cocaine every now and then. Secondly, when white people do drugs they do them responsibly (they actually have jobs). They do it in a safe environment, buy from safe people, avoid all the crime associated with drugs, do them discreetly, and generally enjoy them without any problems.

It's true, everyone knows White folks do drugs, but how often do you hear about white people over dosing or being shot up in a drug deal gone bad? Never. Only Blacks and Mexicans are neck deep in drug-related crime. What do you expect though? There dads leave them and they never learn any responsibility.

Also, I know plenty of Asians who do drugs... but do we have a big drug epidemic with Asians over dosing and shooting up people in bad drug deals? Nope, Asians are responsible like White people. Most of them still have both a mom and a dad and learn right from wrong.

here's something i want to fingure out....


why is most of the crime in a city usually committed by only a small percentage of it's populace. the minorities
