<<We want to think that EVERYONE knows what's wrong or right>>

Well not knowing what to do with a letter found on the street seems a bit contrived to suit some ones agenda.....If asked how would you liked to be ripped off I think we would get a different insight as to what they believe is right or wrong.

<<So, if you're a little hungry, or wearing kind of crumby clothes, does it seem so wrong to boost the rims of a Beamer over in the Crenshaw from someone who has so much more? >>

Of course the flaw of this kind of thinking is that most black crime is black on black as you well know.

Besides I doubt the crime we are discussing would fall into the category of ripping off some rims.There is some pretty violent stuff going one out there that has the concern of the public. Is this is the result of "forced" circumstances?

IMO opinion this kind of simplistic [sorry that's how I see it] thinking that individuals aren't responsible for their actions can only encourage more of the same.

<<I'm explaining it. If you can't explain it, you can't fix it. I want to fix it.>>

To do so first you gotta get the explanation right.
