Lots of liberals blame things like high crime and lack of father's in inner city communities on racism, a lack of money and things of that nature.
So I ask, do these things make one say "hey, i am broke and I have five kids that I can't even feed. Let me joing a gang, kill a bunch of people and disrespect everyone I come acrosss?"
Why do we tolerate these sordid behavior from people just because they are underprivileged.
Money can't buy you tact.

delphi-- this is not a generalization. Just look around you. Read some articles written by liberal people.
You will see it if you view it with an open mind.

lack of money and opportunity does NOT mean that all people will act immorally.
you can still be just as moral as if you had alot of money.
it's an EXCUSE for those to act as they WANT, because they know that they will be coddled by an ultra liberal society who has NO MORALS ANYWAY!!!!!!!!!!

So in your vaguesness---just exactly WTF are you referring to?
Whether you are (R) or (D) does not come into play when it comes to committing a crime or your moral decisions. Since when did you see a judge ask your political affiliation before passing sentence? The causes of inner city crime are directly related to the economic opportunities created by the governance of any given jurisdiction. Less opportunity=more crime. If joining a gang or selling drugs is all you can do to survive--your survival instinct leads you along that path.
If your not willing to put yourself in another's shoes than you'll never really know the reasoning behind their actions--will you?

I have heard some African American people suggest that Vick should get off because," he is black and thus didn't know electrocuting dogs was a crime". They are suggesting that since he is black, he is too stupid to tell right from wrong...I do not know who is dumber, Vick for doing this or the people coming to his "defense".
At some point in time we must give up this whole "victim" attitude and start to judge people for their actions.

Why do you tolerate the immorality of the rich then?
The rich don't need the law and the poor have nothing to lose by violating it. Only the middle class carries the morality burden.

Yah, I just asked Foley, Libby, Cunningham, Delay and Ralph Reed that same question.
They were strangely silent.

Because they will say and do anything to get votes even if that means allowing people to no longer take responsibility for themselves. It is all about "lifestyles" and we should not judge someone despite of that. So no one has to take responsibility for their actions or anything they do.

Is it possible for conservatives like this clown NOT to make vast, unsupported generalizations

You are asking people to use an open mind? You? That is funny.

We don't excuse such actions, but unlike many conservatives, we do look for what causes them.

Please provide a source that proves your incredibly generalized post.
You still didn't provide a source.
