True

I’ve said it before…the issue is the people…

Except it takes less attention span to do a protest (and it is fun and a community like event) and is relatively safe.. and cleaning the neighborhood takes time, and work, and might be dangerous.

(ETA: And if they really cared about “Black Lives” they’d be using that organization to fundraise and recruit help for those folks (mostly black) who were flooded out.) But they Don’t Matter ’cause it won’t make other black people angry….)

I’m sure that I am not the target market…

But the semi hipster faggotty TVspokesperson for Chevy leaves me wanting to buy another brand.

Especially the Chevy Truck commercials.

Aren’t aimed at people who DO things for a living, obviously. I guess those folks who use trucks for what they are for buy Ford or Dodge or Toyota. The poseurs apparently buy Chevy Trucks.

Interesting correlation:

You should read THIS…and follow the links. Especially THIS ONE

This is an indictment of a subset of our population, but that doesn’t make it untrue. It may be uncomfortable for many to contemplate, but that doesn’t change the evidence. Really, it trashes the social programs that attempt to push people out of poverty. In reality, these programs just redistribute crime to other parts of the cities. Not that this is a surprise to anyone with observational skills. Cops know it, the people in those neighborhoods soon learn…Lowlifes are still lowlifes. Being black just makes their contribution to the problem more obvious.

The fact is that a subset of our population commits more crimes than others. And that they have different lifestyle choices that make them targets of our police….because they commit more crimes, they are more likely to be pulled over and investigated by police….and their behavior after that leads to them being pursued and possibly shot and killed

This shows that the nice houses, the nice cars and the more prosperous lifestyle is a result of culture and decisions that are made every day…..moving poor people to a more prosperous and crime free neighborhood doesn’t change who they are. It doesn’t bring them up to the neighborhood standards of living, nor does it change their decisionmaking nor their lifestyle nor their culture….nor their way of life……

It merely brings the neighborhood down a notch or two, and brings crime from one area to another.

People are the problem. Poverty is because of the choices they make and the life they lead, not because of where they live. Moving people doesn’t change things….They bring their problems with them. People get the community they accept…. And accepting certain behavior in a community leads to more of that behavior. Whites do it too, but to a lesser percentage. Hispanics too, but to a lesser extent. Those communities seem to stop at a certain level of crime and refuse to allow it to go any further. At a certain point, people step up and do something, even if it is to involve the police and cooperate with them. Whites and Hispanics and other cultures seem to have a level of crime that is self correcting at some point.

Poor Black people of a certain subculture cause this. Not all, but many. You can’t change them, they have to change themselves.Exporting them to another area doesn’t fix the main issue. Putting them in a different area doesn’t fix the culture. It just exports crime. Then folks of a better class move out….no matter what their color. Rather than bring people up, they bring the neighborhood DOWN.

Yes, I know, pointing this out makes me a racist. So be it.

Question for our DNC brethren:

Since it is an election year, I keep hearing about the “Rich” being required to pay their “Fair Share”.

Please, define what a “Fair Share” is. Use a percentage of income, or a dollar amount or something. Be. Specific. But define it, so the rest of us will know what you are talking about.

What, exactly, do YOU mean when you say “Fair Share”? (We all know a Democrat Politician means anyone but the audience to whom she is speaking )…But seriously, tell me what you mean by “Fair Share”…..and while we are at it, Please define “Rich” too. …..

Why should a rich man pay more than a poor man? They each use the same amount of government….Really, most of the time, a “poor” man uses more…

And a poor man seldom creates a job for anyone.

AAnd my other brother…

Today is the anniversary of another trip around the sun for him.

Not quite as old as myself or the brother from a few days ago, nonetheless we have all seen a few years pass by.

Happy birthday, youngest brother.
