Also society is being manipulated to become more materialistic & sexual (films & music play a big part) and the crime seems to reflect that.Also some of the immigrants that come from war torn countries (Somalia, Sudan etc) bring the same mentality over with them.To generalise an say all blacks are like this or that would be wrong. Certain African counties are very similar to say Indian (strict family unit, high emphasis on education etc).It's the same with Europe, you have different areas like western europe, then you have eastern europe that have suffered the effects of communism.
I want to challenge one premise though, many of these black youths of today were born and raised here. They have not known war

They have not known warMaybe not, but they are more likely to be born in a poor family, without a stable family unit, and brought up in a constant state of survival pushing them towards crime and once they get caught in the justice system it's pretty much certain that they stay in it.
Sorry, I am just not buying that, 1 you go to Tottenham and in the predominantly black areas they are predominantly targeting black people.The violence is so bad that they have specialist police units just for those areas, 2 therefore to bring racism into this just doesn't cut the mustard and 3 furthermore there is plenty of racism directed towards white people too, it cuts both ways.
