The mentality in the communities is what needs to change, how to do it is the question. Professional Athletes and Hip Hop artists have shown us that an end to poverty does necessarily mean an end to to crime and violence, be it petty drug charges or more severe.

Are you saying there is no glorification of 'thug life' as you put it, in Hispanic communities? I included that in my poverty argument. I only quoted black on black as it's the phrase you used.
Do you watch tv? Do you look at statistics? Your point fits better to my argument than yours. Your either just arguing for the sake of arguing or need to do more reading.
Yeah, no impovershed Hispanics in these communities and gangs.
Your post makes zero sense. Cat pushing a watermelon out of a lake and all that.
