***in crime by glorifying their criminals.***

For some reason people have always done that. Billy the Kid and Jesse James comes first to mind.

Billy the Kid - orphaned at 15 and first arrested for stealing a loaf of bread. Killed when he was 21. There's some lore involved in the story of a man forced into a life of rebellion and crime by life's early radon injustice.

If true - he was the romantic exception -- probably more likely he was a sociopath but that's for another day.

It also has little to do with a whole community glorifying car jackers, child killers, and common thieves. History and cultures can do that to exceptional and flamboyant criminals but NO CULTURES glorify common everyday thugs. You know that - not in the old west, not in the old world and not in today's world.

The black community in unique in this regard. And that pathology's reinforced by white liberal elites and their butt boys in the press. Did you notice today's black overseers (poverty pimps on MSNBC, CNN, New York Times and Washington Post) actually went along with the 'de-fund' the police crap UNTIL THE REAL BLACK COMMUNITY - IN TOTAL DESPERATION - MADE THEIR VOICE HEARD. They needed cops in their communities. They started voting with their feet and switching parties... and speaking out ... and finally the pets of white liberal elites (who haven't lived in black communities for decades) - heard them. And stated changing their tunes.

The black community did NOT glorify criminals until late 1963 ...
