1. Where are the male influences in these kids life, ok so the father isn't in the home but where's the Grandfather? where's the Uncle? where's the Cousin? where's that positive male influence for support. If those influence(granddad,uncle,cousin) are all from the streets as well it's gonna keep the circle going.

2.No need for wanting someone to give you a job when you can create your own. Instead of using that hustle money to get fly and show off for little fast ass busted downs flip that shyt to start your own http://www.entrepreneur.com/article/201588

the common thread is poverty first and foremost. I think its extremely obvious that thats the main issue

Stop.. Why do you guys act like they were eating out of trash cans before they started killing/robbing/selling drugs? Wasnt there a guy from Chi who killed his moms for her money? I'll say it again, plenty of these kids were not starving wondering where the next meal is coming from.Yeah they didnt have the best of everything, the problem came when they wanted itand wanted fast money.

There are plenty of poor blacks who dont resort to a life of crime, why are you guys making excuses for the ones who do? you hear the same stuff everytime, they couldnt find jobs, white people didint give them the chance, white people didnt allow us to do anything, they are superior to us.. are black ppl really that inferior to them? Do you guys like saying that ? I dont..We either start taking what we want or sit back and pull up stats and cry about it..


They so poor but have a computer and a internet connection. The internet by itself should be the biggest boom to the black community. yet to many of us use it to socialize. No poster on here is willing to admit the white man is why they arent where they want to be.. odd

I was talking about a part time teenager job.. A job they go to after school. Of course no adult should be making that working 40/hrs a week.

I'm actually laughing at this post

well, i partially disagree with your first point. i believe a fathers main role is providing structure for his family, you can't do that from a subordinate position. we'll just have to agree to disagree on that one.

now the bolded, that's exactly what im saying. you talking bout working for fukkin 75 dollars a week like a fukking peasant, when the dudes on the block with the real money are the dealers. if those men were all making 70-150k legitimately, ready to put the next black male on. what do you think all these chicago nikkas would be doing right now? think they'd still be shooting and perusing rap careers?

Art thou cereal?

im very cereal, as i've seen how it works in other communities. fukk 70k, make it 30k. the whole point is dudes are turning to drug dealing because most of the black men they see with money are the dealers, can you deny that?

what we need is to just take these nikkas out, im talking about early morning raids on each and everyone, publig floggings and executions, ;et these neegas shake their heads and dreads as the noose tightens around their neck, only way to save the next generation is to get rid of this demonic one

You have a point to a certain degree.If they seen more men making say $70K a yr and above it would influence them somewhat. The breakdown comes when you tell them you won't be making that right away. Naw its going to take you 4yrs of college + being broke / paying student loans out the ass / working your way up to get that $70K. If alot of them think they wont see 25 to begin with, why would they wait it out? They think they are soldiers and playing some game, some may even think its an honor to die young. How do you reason with a kid like that?

I don't know what alternate universe @marcuz is living in where these young black boys want jobs. I'm not gonna put my business out there but my younger nephew has been stabbed TWICE this year. I tried to help him write a resume and find him a job.

GUESS WHAT ?! He wasn't interested. Lets be real, these boys aren't gonna do what normal kids their age do and get a lil job at Mcdonalds or Footlocker and actually work hard to get a cheque at the end of the month.

Real success requires WORK that means working for years, getting promoted, working hard for money and a lot of these boys want instant gratification. A normal job that kids their age have won't buy them gucci belts and all the shyt they want so they hit the bricks instead.

These kids have large appetites, while I can chill with a shirt from Levis (and I earn 6 figures) my nephew wants designer everything, designer head to toe, a big car, he wants to 'ball'. Normal jobs accessible to children their age doesn't appeal to them because their chasing things it simply can't afford.

So the 'its cos they don't have jobs' excuse is garbage. They don't want them.


thats my @Theraflu
