75% of kids in African-American community now born out of wedlock. That wasn't the case 50 years ago; LBJ's war on poverty reversed our gains on poverty, and started to destroy urban communities. AA family culture (in urban areas, at least...I expect it is 90+% there, but probably identical % to whites in suburban and rural areas) is being destroyed. So, the Dems will have effectively destroyed any opposition within the black urban community soon.
There was a black minister on the radio the other day, talking about banning guns that have never been used in his community ("weapons of war like AK-47s"). The host asked him about violence in his neighborhoods, and mentioned how people used to have guns (as they do now) but they did not use them when they had disputes, and now they use them, and he asked whether the difference between then and now isn't really the availability of guns, but destruction of culture in those neighborhoods. The pastor talked vaguely abut how we have to, of course, restore the family and morality as well. He gave the impression that he has absolutely no idea how to do it. It is a major challenge. But the only way to do it is to remove the opioid of entitlements...perhaps I should coin a term: "methentitlements." But, it is really just getting them onto the government plantation, as Herman Cain said.
