� 2001-04-16 - 8:44 p.m. I have been watching all this crap about what is going on in Cincinnati. The black people are blaming police officers. The police officers are blaming the black victims. I personally think the problem is why these people who have been shot have put themselves into that situation. How do we prevent them from putting themselves into that situation? The causes of this problem originate deep into the foundation of capitalism. The strong capitalize on the weak. Through no fault of their own the weak have been minorities such as inner city Blacks and Latinos. Undereducated parents, who have kids at a young age and become undereducated parents themselves. This cycle has continued for at least a century. Now these kids see they are at the bottom of the barrel and they do not know how to get out. Several try to cheat and use illegal means to rise in the barrel. This is seen as an only or simpler option. Fixing the police department in Cincinnati will only fix the symptoms. The entire country needs to work at resolving the root cause. We need programs to teach all children, Black, White, Latino, Asian, that through education, work, and caring you can attain a modest living. A modest living should be glamorized. Instant millionaires do not just happen. There are plenty of glories in being middle class and the media of this country should portray it that way. We need to make parents and schools somewhat accountable for their children�s education. We need to dissolve the ghettos. If lower income families were more spread out then the they would have a better facilities, schools, parks and programs to help teach the kids self-confidence, reading, writing, social skills, manners. Hmmm, If I wasn�t a slacker I would save this country from its prison debt. -Dude Like this entry? Vote for me here!
