Now that Obama has 4 more years. Black Community discussion....

[Wild self]

Its basically kids raising themselves. So they gravitate to the lowest common denominator. I used to think it was apathy and indifference, but I realized it is a healthy diet of not having guidance or supervision.

Its hard for a 20 year old man who practiced bad habits his entire life to shape up, the lack of self-control and discipline only leads to bad outcomes in their later years. I'm not saying there's no hope, but all those behavioral "issues" like anger and aggression is a pretty bad mix when you trying to get ahead in America.

Its purely psychological at this point, these guys need more than a pep talk at 20 years old, they need reconditioning. I fit this mold myself, I grew in the same messed up neighborhoods and had some pissed poor ways, but college and better surroundings really improved my outlook, attitude and behavior.

all of that is true, but the problem is that the anti-intellectual shyt being glorified from the Bush era still lingers to the general public, which is why the class clown and the thug disguised as the alpha male have the most social power in our communities. How many times you hear these rappers talking down on "lames" and "nerds" like they less than human, simply because they don't aspire to be like them? too many times to count.

We got to take away that social power and credibility away from them. After the general public stops giving a fukk about them, then they can change. Change starts from within ourselves and our communities. No president can do anything in terms of free will.
