These boys didnt grow up there, they have moved in and brought the value down. I blame the parents!!! I have 2 boys and I know where they are at all times!! I log into their e-mails, and myspace pages, I read their text messages, I snoop through their rooms!!!! Damn right Im nosey cause thats the only way to save them from the streets!!! I moved my boys to the mallard creek area so they would not have as much negative influence around them.I keep them in sports, I skate with them, and they make A's and B's. Parents get involved!!!

Let me say that if these kids are in this environment it's because their parents decided to bring them into it. If people can't afford to live anywhere but the ghetto then why in the world would you think having a baby would be a good idea? I didn't even buy a puppy until I was sure I could afford to take care of it!! If you're on crack it's probably not gonna be the best scenario when you have kids. It's all a vicious cycle, but it's not one that white people planned or created. Ultimately until the black race stops blaming and looking for handouts, this will be their plight. And until the black community takes a stand against these idiots then the perception of black people as a whole will continue to suffer. I'm afraid that this environment was created by the very people that live in it and unfortunately if these people on myspace are any indication of the next generation, the future looks bleak. I'm sorry but when I wake up each day, my thoughts are not about how I can help these poor thugs - I have to get to work and pay taxes to house and feed them - that's a thought that disgusts me and many others. It's a money pit and frankly from a business standpoint, a bad investment. If I had a choice I would opt out. Go to school, get a job and please stop whining...I can't take it anymore!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23846106.post-25068648050795833482007-08-23T12:34:00.000-04:002007-08-23T12:34:00.000-04:00to the "theyoungblkkguy" - please spare us your take on history (slavery) - the victim act will receive no sympathy from those of us who work hard and play by the rules - black or white. These thugs rob, rape and kill people - including their fellow black neighbors - they don't have a problem with living in the ghetto or slavery - they have a problem of wanting something for nothing and they'll use any excuse to justify it. And the sad thing is that they want nothing that actually betters their life - they trash their government housing and reject a free education - they just want to steal my mercedes and ride around for a while - PITIFUL! When will they learn that none of these things mean nothing when you don't work for them. If you want to blame something - I suggest you forget slavery and look a little closer look at the photos flashing on this site - seems obvious to me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23846106.post-81605614624816433192007-08-22T21:55:00.000-04:002007-08-22T21:55:00.000-04:00white people aren't responsible for you being in the ghetto. Instead its deadbeat parents who didn't want or deserve kids in the first place. Instead they continue to have kids and don't take responsibility for them and let the government support them. Instead of these kids putting all their time and energy into crime they could try to be productive members of society. There are just as many opportunities out there for you as there are for me, if not more. If I want to go back to school, I have to pay for it. If I can't afford groceries, too bad. The people in the "ghetto" get free medical care, groceries, education, etc. How long do you plan on using the slavery excuse?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23846106.post-72247086525168943232007-08-22T20:26:00.000-04:002007-08-22T20:26:00.000-04:00To "theyoungblkguy" who's putting ou in the ghetto? Not me. I don't owe you anything, including a free ride. When you start taking responsibility for your own life and stop blaming something that happened 200+ years ago you may be more successful.

(And)stigmatizes those who would inform the police about a crime.<BR/><BR/>Your right if I did dress like a Nazi I would be seen as odd out of place. So pop culture has allowed a very few to get rich at the cost of the rest of us. The sad part is that places like Hidden Vally pay the price for turning a blind eye to these slime balls. They have just posted an intent on my space. If its just kidding why do it at all.

We'll go head to head on that one. I guarantee you I'll win. Try being Jewish and suffered through thousands and thousands of years of slavery, genocide and persecution. Uh, can you say Holocaust? 6 million of us were killed in the not so distant past. Now, I'm pretty sure I don't hear anyone from the Jewish community stating "oh poor us. we were slaves and victims of genocide now someone owes us". You will never hear it. Everyone is responsible for his/her own actions. Just because your great, great, great grandpa was a slave does not give you the right to assume that the world "owes" you. If that were the case, then I want something for the fact that my grandmother died in Bergen-Belsen (look it up).

I don't owe you crap because your ancestors were slaves. I wasn't born with a silver spoon in my mouth,(i'm mixed, half white, half black)..my dad (black) left me and my mom when I was 2. I never heard from or saw him again, (i'm 32). I don't know if he is still alive. My mother raised me right. She showed me the value of hard work. These kids are nothing, and will amount to nothing unless they start taking care of themselves. It is to late for positive role models etc. They are not scared of authority, they have been to jail, and think it is a right of passage. <BR/><BR/>Last question, does anyone else think these guys just look stupid?

Stop the whining, you are not the only one to have been treated badly in this country - white, black, no matter what race. In fact, take a visit to any place around this world and you can see that firsthand. The problem is that you like to blame everyone else for your issues. Be a MAN (instead of a guy)and standup and go do something with your life instead of feeling sorry for yourself. Stop blaming others and Start doing something good with your life. I came out of the "ghetto" and decided I wasn't going to repeat the cycle. Its a choice! I know that sounds foreign to you. I am so tired of your type of speech - it makes me sick. You are not your ancestors, you are your own person - take responsibility! <BR/>And what exactly does your little speech have to do with these "thugs"?? I think it was just another opportunity for you to try and make folks pity you. There is no pity for their enviornment or their behavior for that matter. I would think you would be sad, mad, or something along those lines - don't you want to stop the cycle of violence? White people didn't create this mentality - these "thugs" only have themselves to blame for being cruel, stupid, and the dregs of society. Hope they are ready to either go to jail or on to see their maker, maybe they can use that excuse about "their enviornment".Mandynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23846106.post-32405181140584788262007-08-22T09:12:00.000-04:002007-08-22T09:12:00.000-04:00I agree and I am a WM.This is my plan,Forget Spain and Portugal and the Kings in Africa who were all involved in the slave "TRADE" we'll just assume that all of us plain white people are to blame.We'll give every black person in America lets say 25K and along with that you'll sign a clean slate form stating "Welcome to America"your free ride is over there is no more blame game,race card or whining,Good Luck.That will never happen so back to reality.Until YOUR community finds a way to deal with the generational poverty,the stigma of education and the belief that "the man" is out to get them you'll always be two steps behind.Your reply is not without merit,the world is full of injustice,but you must clean your own house or else it'll never happen.On a side note, I grew up in Hidden Valley until 1983.What happened?Who's causing the problems...OOOH.I had a great childhood there imagine that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23846106.post-17725303972362446962007-08-22T02:33:00.000-04:002007-08-22T02:33:00.000-04:00ALL OF YOUR COMMENTS WERE ALL-GOOD UNTIL YOU DECIDED TO BRING UP PAT MCCORY.
