The children are raised by their grandmothers and aunts.

Man, I really respect those women. At their stage in life, they sure as Hell don't need ANOTHER baby to raise, and yet time and time again they step up to the plate when the kid gets knocked up. To me, it shows the character of the old black generation, before it was ruined by the liberals.

I do admire these grandmothers and “aunties.” I had the opportunity to teach in an all black school for two years in Pickens County, Alabama. It is the second poorest county in the state. It was an education for me. I'm certain that it is a hundred times worse in Chicago. When I taught, I didn't know of a single student in a gang. They were simply living in poverty. Out of the 150 or students I taught, only two had fathers that actually lived with them. All the others were raised by a female, most often their grandmother. It is pitiful. No government program can be a substitute for an absentee father.

If you were talking about the older generation of black women you would be right. However, these grandmothers are often in their mid 30s and still poppin babies and ridin the government sugar daddy themselves. Black inner city culture has devolved so far it is sickening. Big government social programs have destroyed the inner city people. Damn all the liberals for what they have done!
