I feel for people raised in the hood. They don’t have a chance. Yes, we have to throw them in prison anyway when they go off the rails and commit crimes, but these boys with no fathers and absentee, drug-addicted mothers just don’t have a chance to grow up right. It is a sin. I am at a complete loss as to how to break the cycle. It seems we are doomed to this condition going forward in perpetuity. I wish to heaven we could find some way to break the cycle, but it seems things are only getting worse with time. Heaven help them, and us. What a tragedy.

1.) Stop excusing terrible behavior, an essential first step. (Not that you are.)
2.) Close the worse than worthless, union dominated public schools.
3.) Repeal minimum wage and child labor laws.
4.) Fire all publically supported social workers.
5.) End welfare.

Personally...

I am FURIOUS at the 1994 crime bill that Biden authored which led to mass incarcerations of black men.

When I see black communities with children and women but few grown men, I am beyond angry.

They are incarcerated or have criminal records that prevent them from gainful employment - therefore not able to be a husband/father figure. That plus the gov’t paying the women for the kids instead of a dad supporting them adds to the cycle. These families have every right to exist but the democrats have done so much to make sure it doesn’t happen.

And how could any black person vote for Biden knowing that he personally had a hand in preventing a ‘Racial Jungle’ for black families to thrive.

” Biden emphasized wanting to “insure we do have orderly integration of society,” adding he was “not just talking about education but all of society. Unless we do something about this, my children are going to grow up in a jungle, the jungle being a racial jungle with tensions having built so high that it is going to explode at some point. We have got to make some move on this.” “

They are already handicapped because most of them are Bell Curve leftsiders.

There was a time when The Boy Scouts would Hire (Hire) scoutmasters to lead inner city troops so the boys would have male role models other than street gangs for character and skill formation.

We all know the story. Libs and LGBT types have managed to kill that.

I’d rather smite them hip and thigh.

“I feel for people raised in the hood...”


I taught at a semi-rural, predominantly white school. But a part of our population were what used to be called ‘white trash’. I’d see kids from bad backgrounds who showed a lot of promise, but the ‘swamp’ (what I called it back then) would too often drag them back down. Most of even the bright ones wouldn’t graduate high school and after a few years I’d see their names in the arrest reports. A real shame.
