Crossposting from your DU account much? /sarc>
What you are seeing in the Black community was more or less foretold by the late Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan back in the '60s.
You know, it's not poverty or racism. Blacks suffered from both of those things much more during the Great Depression, but didn't behave like this...because they had intact families.
This can all be laid at the feet of LBJ and the "Great Society" programs designed to make the blacks dependent on Big Government rather than self-reliant; and in the process destroyed the black family.
NO cheers, unfortunately.
That is exactly where I laid it back in post 403.
btw, skin color has nothing to do with its effects.
