5. This is how rednecks resolve conflict.
This is what is so dangerous about 1/6! It is natural for them, therefore, they are easily lead to violence.
Never would have come to realize this if I hadn't moved to the south.
Generally, people in Chicago burbs do not resort to violence to resolve conflicts.
You really should not have said Chicago, DUde.
https://heyjackass.com/Nice collection of data to peruse. While the burbs are always different worlds, especially in this case, they are just a stone's throw from ample examples of non-rednecks resolving conflict with violence. Be sure to note the race figures. Victims are overwhelmingly black, while perps are overwhelmingly unknown, following the "snitches get stitches" mindset, along with a "we take care of our own" mindset.
And some anecdotal evidence...
https://www.dallasnews.com/news/crime/2019/08/16/rapper-accused-of-killing-dallas-girl-while-gunning-for-his-rival-turns-himself-in/ The man who is accused of killing a 9-year-old girl was in custody Thursday evening, a day after the fatal shooting left her neighborhood in shock and clergy members and community activists calling for an end to violence.
Tyrese Simmons, 19, turned himself in at Lew Sterrett Jail in connection with the death of Brandoniya Bennett at her home in the Roseland Townhomes in the 3500 block of Munger Avenue in Old East Dallas. He has been charged with capital murder, with bail set at $500,000.

At a news conference Thursday afternoon, police said Simmons had been feuding with a fellow rapper who had "dissed" him in a song.
Police believe Simmons had the wrong address for the intended target of the shooting and mistakenly killed Brandoniya.
