Reply to comment by Mildred_RatchedRN in Baltimore police investigate 39 rideshare carjacking, robbery cases since November by ThatguyfromBaltimore

even less people become criminals when they don't have to worry where their next meal is coming from, or when they are able to have a home, transportation, and an actual job option.

The fucking entitlement in this thread is amazing, and the sad part is - 10 years ago I'd think example the same as you lot.

Poverty is a reasonable justification for many things, but it never just makes someone a rapist or murderer. Frankly, you're coming off like someone without any personal experience with poverty

  1. I never justified poverty for murder or rape. See previous posts.

  2. true poverty? No. I grew up in a household where my father went bankrupt 3 times. We had to cheat on taxes for years to keep bills paid, and eventually got audited/in trouble. Bills such as power barely got paid. We ate, but not well. I had it great compared to people in the inner city.

Perhaps you just don't know what you're talking about. I am not going to get into a tit-for-tat with you. You obviously have an ideological agenda, and good luck with that.

or perhaps you're just mis-interpreting the message I'm attempting to get across. Have a good one.
