This is the generation to be afraid of.

But let’s be honest. Not for that Vast majority here.

The chances of getting assaulted in my neighborhood or the whole south side of where I live just by walking around is almost zero.

I have NO reason to ever go to the dark side of town.

My job is in a white neighborhood and in YEARS I’ve not heard of one person being accosted.

I don’t care of bkln and the bronx and parts of manhattan tear themselves to pieces.

I’ll worry when it starts hitting home.

But we wouldn’t put up with it here just like you guys wouldn’t in your neighborhoods.

We made them what they have turned out to be. Back when I was young we[and everyone else] had chickens. During the day, they roamed far and wide. But in the evening, the ones the hawks did not get always made it back to roost.

Which is it? As or what one sows, one also reaps, or the chickens always come home to roost.

Back when I was a child, children were taught, with mama's switch and daddy's belt when necessary to be courteous to and respect their elders. They grew up to be good children and better men and women. And then came the Pepsi generation.
