Honestly brah... it's really simple but we gotta get the FOOLS out of the way that keep telling us someone else is causing these problem so we can focus on what WE NEED TO DO to change he sh!t we see.
THE PROBLEM HERE IS THAT THE IGNORANCE
THAT KEEPS THEM THINKING THAT WAY
IS NOT SO EASILY REMOVABLE
WE ARE TALKING ABOUT CENTURIES OF MIND FUCKING
THAT HAS TO BE BREAD OUT OF OUR DNA.
And here me out on this. I never say that racism doesn't exist. I never say that racism doesn't have an impact. However, what I am saying is racism, let's say in the form of racist cops, ain't killing more black folx than ngaz are. Anyone who says different is lying thru their fuckin teeth. Any of us who live in the hood knows that sh!t ain't true. So my thing is how abou we start talking about the sh!t having the greater impact?
AGREED BUT THE OPRESSION IS NOT ALLWAYS VIOLENT
THE ECONOMIC OPPRESSION HAS HAD A MUCH STRONGER IMPACT
AND THEY KNOW BY KEEPING THE MAJORITY OF US BROKE
WE WILL FIGHT THE NEXT NEAREST MAN FOR THE MORSEL OF EXISTENCE
THAT IS MINIMAL IN THIER GEOGRAPHIC BOUNDRIES.
THOSE BOUNDARIES ARE BASED ON LACK OF UNDERSTANDING AND KNOWLEGE
THAT HAS BEEN PASSED GENERATIONALY AND THROUGH PROPAGANDA WITHIN OUR OWN CULTURE AND COMMUNITY.
I KNOW WHERE YOURE GOING,
IM JUST PLAYING THE DEVILS ADVOCATE HERE.
The ngaz we see in the streets right now are a product of fatherless, broken homes. Anyone of us who grew up w/ a father, or grandfather, uncle(s), big brother(s), older cousin(s), mentor(s), etc knows that you really need to have men around to keep young boys in check until they grow up & realize they can run around & be buckwild.
We gotta stop having these kids outta wedlock, period. If you're gonna have a baby, get married first & raise you child. Otherwise, don't have kids.
I WHOLE HEARTEDLY AGREE.
BUT LOOK AT THE CROSS SECTION OF PEOPLE RIGHT HERE ON BGOL AND HOW
MUCH NEGATIVE STUFF GETS POSTED ABOUT MARRIAGE AND KIDS
AND CHILD SUPPORT.
I HAVE HAD THE OCCASION TO MENTOR TO MEN OLDER THAN ME.

SO MUCH MISINFORMATION GETS PUT OUT HERE
AND THEY GET STUCK WITH IT LIKE CANCER NO MATTER THE AGE
FUCK THE TRUTH
WHAT IS DEEMED POPULAR IS WHAT BECOMES THE TRUTH.
REGARDLESS OF THE FACTS.
YOU GET ENOUGH IGNORANT PEOPLE IN ONE PLACE
TO AGREE THAT MARRIAGE IS A BAD THING AND
SOME CHICK IS GONNA USE YOU AS A MEAL TICKET,
REGARDLESS OF THE FACT THAT PLENTY OF PEOPLE HAVE GREAT MARRIAGES
WHICH ARE NOT PERFECT BUT POSSESS THE NECESSARY TOOLS TO
RAISE AND NURTURE CHILDREN AND SUPPORT THE COMMUNITY,
YOU WILL ULTIMATELY END UP WITH
A LARGE NUMBER OF SELF DESTRUCTIVE
YOUNG BLACK MEN WHO DONT UNDERSTAND THAT BY DOING NOTHING
THEY ARE DOING JUST AS MUCH DAMAGE.
Next, we gotta stop dropping outta HS & get a post-secondary skill (via college, trade school, etc ) so that we can make a decent living.
Lastly, each individual has to decide they're not going to get involved in criminal activity. If you have the means to make a decent living then it eliminates people going down that road.
Like 80% of prison inmates come from single parent homes. And while I don't have the stats right in front of me, I'd be willing to bet a lot of them didn't finish HS or they don't have a marketable skill to make a decent living.
AGAIN I AGREE
HOWEVER THIS DID NOT HAPPEN OVER NIGHT
THIS HAS BEEN A PROGRESSION.
THERE WAS A TIME WHEN HAVING KIDS OUT OF WEDLOCK WAS A MAJOR DEAL.
NOW IT IS ACCEPTABLE AND PRACTICED
THESE SAME PEOPLE THAT ACCEPT IT
ARE THE SAME ONES CRYING ABOUT THE CRIME
AND HOW FOUL SHIT IS
AND WHY THEY CANT FIND A GOOD MAN/WOMAN
THEY ARE ADDING TO THE PROGRESSION AND THE EQUATION OF LOSS.
LOSS OF INTEGRITY
LOSS OF POSITIVE CULTURE,
LOSS OF FAMILY
LOSS OF COMMUNITY
LOSS OF LIFE
LOSS OF FINANCE
AND SO ON..........
So yeah, we agree about someone of the stuff you said in your post. You're right about not getting women pregnant that we know we're not going to be with (ie marry). If you don't wanna get married that's your choice. Just don't have kids. How hard is that?
Like I said, I'd just add on the parts about completing HS & going beyond that to get a marketable skill & refusing to involve yourself in criminal activity.
We can change a lot of this stuff pretty quickly for the young people who haven't had kids out of wedlock, dropped out of HS, or committed themselves to a life of crime. However, we gotta still deal with what's currently out there & if you know like I know, the sh!t ain't pretty. Let's just make sure it stops now & the next generation doesn't continue the current trend.
I HEAR YOU AND THATS ALL EASY TO SAY
BUT AGAIN
YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND HOW WE GOT THIS WAY ,
HOW THE CULTURAL DISEASE WAS BORN AND GROWS
BEFORE YOU CAN DISECT THE
CANCER FROM THE BODY OF OUR PEOPLE AND HAVE IT REMAIN DORMANT.
