Lyndon Johnson’s “Great Society” destroyed the black family structure in a mere two generations time.
Now we are reaping the evil harvest.
To be fair, it’s not a “black problem” only. As I said, I live in a mixed neighborhood. I think we have raised one or more generations with an entitlement mentality. They don’t want to get an education or work for a living. Much easier to shoot and rob someone. And even those who are educated are merely indoctrinated. They can tell you all sorts of things about global warming, but they can’t read, write, do math or even tell you who their congressperson is.
And we’ve let the criminal element get way out of hand. Sure, we can get more police on the streeet, but what good is it when these gangsters are back out doing whatever. I said once (long before the War on Terror) that we should send soldiers into the streets to clean up these hoodlums. Boy, did I get flak for being so cruel, heartless, unconcerned for their rights, etc. etc. I still think it’s a good idea. Round ‘em all up and throw the book at ‘em. And if they deserve the death penalty, give it to them. None of these endless appeals, bleeding hearts and the like.
