Where is the responsibility of these adults; why do they continue to breed when they can’t afford to feed etc. what they have...it seems to be a disease of the impoverished as well as the irresponsible.
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =

A ‘response’ to statement, not necessarily directed at yoe(you)

Playing ‘Devils Advocate’, going back to LBJ and his ‘Great Society’ which ‘invented’ the single mother on her own as the ‘GS’ ended up in breaking up the family and a couple of decades of no MALE supervision in far to many homes.

Add that to the continuous importation of ‘laborers’ - not that any of these types would work at a ‘typical’ job,

The ‘thug element’ taking over the schools and ostracizing those that may want to work at learning something.

School agendas aimed more at how to ‘feel good’ that pump underqualified students into a world they are not prepared for.

‘Rs’ don’t want them to keep reproducing when the ONLY means of support is welfare, food stamps, some phonied up ‘illness’ or any other kind of Government ‘assistance’ BUT also not only fight abortion or free birth control but won’t vote for R pols that do.

Like I have said before, the side that favors killing unborn children is also against the killing of convicted murderers, while those that are against the killing of unborn are unwilling to provide support once the kid is born.

There is an answer in there somewhere but we definitely are not getting any closer to it.

“How much are Air Jordans?”

3 to 5 without parole. Good behavior might get you out earlier.

It takes a special talent to ‘lose’ your job at PIZZA HUT.

They're pikers compared to those in government jobs. That's where the real talent is.

Haha - Look up Kenneth Lamar Noid.
I’m a former Dominoid who still has a couple of Noid figures around.

I’m guessing he was counting on nobody there being armed because he knew company policy and so thought that it would be a safe, easy robbery.

If that was his thinking he was not very smart.

Anyone who delivers pizza unarmed is gambling with their life.

Last I read pizza delivery drivers were second only to taxi drivers for chances of getting shot on the job (admittedly it has been years).

I would guess that chances of someone being armed at a pizza shop are pretty high these days.

“while crying. “If you decide to rob someone, then you face a judge.”

Meet Judge Smith & Wesson.

Fired from Pizza Hut.
4 year old child.
Girl friend pregnant.
Almost homeless.
Puts on Air Jordans to go rob his former employer wearing a mask.

She wants the employee who did the shooting charged with a crime, so then she can sue him for money.

His mother didn’t know what he needed more — a motivational speech or tough love.

"You know, Danny, I sent men to the electric chair. I didn't want to do it, you understand, but I felt I owed it to them."

Some very tough love fixed the problem.

Good post. A perfect example of "well if that is the exception, that proves the rule." (That apparently nobody has ever been charged for shooting somebody robbing their restaurant or fast-food joint.)

For every single mother there is an AWOL father.

In some cases, more than one AWOL father, depending on how many kids she has.

Michael Grace Jr. had been fired from a series of low-paying, unskilled jobs. He had a 4-year-old child and a pregnant girlfriend. Essentially homeless, the 28-year-old was not in a position to take care of anyone, even himself.

What does it take to have "been fired from a series of low-paying, unskilled jobs.?"

I think it would be better for me to not comment on that.

This exact scenario happened to a friend of mine 15 or so years ago. The restaurant was closed and one of the employees left the back door open while hauling trash out back.

Thug came inside with a gun and pointed at my friend who was sitting at a desk. He kept a gun in the drawer beside him and that’s that the perp got instead of the cash.

He’d practiced and practiced pulling the gun out and into firing position. When it counted it worked.

Perp was shot though the cheek and out the jaw. Served 10 years.

OK. I think this is safe.....

I think you are too late in your sentiment.
