Why are black males so prone to violence? For many years I always thought they were misunderstood "urban youths". I guess I was wrong. I recently went back to see the house I grew up in on 64th & Ashland. Boy has the neighborhood changed! There were vagrants everywhere & the litter was terrible.
ReplyDeleteWhy do you think people cringe at the thought of living near section 8 recipients? Most poor people are poor for a reason! And it has nothing to do with racism or lack of opportunity.
ReplyDeleteWell, if they are poor... It is no excuse for them to litter!
