- micromacrofoot 5y agono because 99.99% of people aren’t walking into schools shooting people, the .01% doesn’t represent the entirety of culture… at best it represents how outliers with mental health issues don’t have access to mental health services
- betwixthewires 5y agoWell I'm glad you're intellectually consistent on that. I don't really think that accepting that cultural trends influence behavior, including violent and/or criminal behavior, is racist. Culture is influenced by environment, and culture influences behavior. To pin all criminal behavior on culture though is incorrect IMO.
