Many people have tried different things to fix the inner city. I have given a lot of thought to the subject myself. I am now proposing something that I have not seen proposed by credible sources, and that is as follows: Send gangsters to Africa. Do not overload the prison system at huge expense to the taxpayer. Do not provoke hatred by criminalizing people living there since they are kids. Instead call their bluff. If they do not like America, let them leave America. If they do not like the white man, let them go to a place where there are few white people. Some of these people say such things as that all white men are racists. They forget that approximately 500,000 white people died during the Civil War to give them their freedom. So if they hate America, and if they hate the white people, let them go to Africa. It is not possible to socialize someone who sees you as an enemy. Many of these people will fight such a socialization to the point of death. If you are a Jew, you will not let Nazis socialize you. If you are Palestinian, you will not let the Israelis socialize you. If you are a Russian romantic, you will not let American third-wave feminists or personality psychologists socialize you. Such people would rather die than let people of that kind dictate to them the meaning of right-and-wrong, mental health or anything of the sort. I do not understand why more people do not understand such things, it should be bloody obvious. But if they are surrounded by people whom they do not believe to be their enemies, then many of them will accept socialization from them. I speak in this from experience. I was born in the former Soviet Union, and my family moved to America when I was 12. Since early childhood the Communists instilled in me hatred of America. And even when I was no longer a Communist, I had a low view of Americans. This meant that I would not let these people socialize me, and I continued acting like a teenager for a long time. Whereas when I came to Australia, where I had no ill will toward anyone there, I could grow as a person. Now there are some people who think that the problems of the inner city are due to racial inferiority. That is completely wrong. The African immigrants who come to America tend to do well, and they tend to behave well. The problems we see are with people who are descended from African slaves. The difference between the two populations is choice. One has chosen to come to America, the other hasn’t chosen to come to America. Many in the second population feel like they have no control over their lives. This leads many of them to see themselves as victims and act like *******s. The solution therefore is to give them the choice that they believe they have been denied. Do not put them away for $40,000 a year in taxpayer money. Give them a one-way ticket to Nairobi. And if they choose to remain in America, demand that they be patriotic and be good citizens.
It sounds Racist, But perhaps not so much. As a Hispanic, if I feel the Gringo, Anglo hates me so much, perhaps I should move to Spain or another Spanish language nation and I would feel better among my fellow Latinos.
Sure. But I would say that the black guys in America who hate Americans and white people would be more predisposed to take right-and-wrong from their own people than from the white man, and they would be more likely to become peaceful and productive in African countries.
LMAO Their own people? We are their own people. THEY ARE AMERICANS. We Americans are their people. Jesus! Get the point. America is not solidly 'white' anyway. We have people from all backgrounds here. And we are all Americans, all equal. Get the ****ing point.
OK. Since you appear to be an American who is black, what would you do for these people? I would think that black Americans who've made good would be a good influence on such people. If they wouldn't take stuff from the white man, let them take it from the black one. But those of them who also hate America would not take it from you either, and they may need to go to a place like Kenya to get it from the people whom they regard to be the genuine article.
I'm not black. You are discussing sending our people, who happen to be black, to another country. It is another culture. It is not their home or their culture. It is a completely unreasonable suggestion. An untenable suggestion. People like you are obsessed with race. Race is a man made concept. We are all one race, the human race. Anything else is a false concept. Culture is what matters, not the color of your skin. When people like you realize that, and stop making broad generalizations about people based on race, we can move forward as a society and eliminate racism.
Ma'am, I am not obsessed with race at all. I very rarely write about race. Most of what I write is about cultural and political issues. I would be very happy to see racism being eliminated. I am a Jew who spent the first 12 years of my life in the Soviet Union. The post that I have made is not about race. It is offering suggestions, based in part on my own personal experience, as to how one can socialize people who see America and the white man as their enemy; and my suggestion is to send them to places where they would not be dealing with America or the white man, so that they would take it from people whom they consider credible. Once again, if these people hate America and the white man, then let them go to places where they would not be dealing with many of either. This way they would feel empowered over their lives and would be less likely to become criminals.
Sorry... I had to stop here. You gave a lot of thought to this? And you wonder why credible sources have not proposed this?
An American citizen can't be forced to leave the country. That's banishment, widely practiced in medieval and enlightenment Europe, and later banishment unto death by Hitler. You just can't do that no ways no how. With a change in the power structure it might be me who gets banished. I view banishment as a seductively dangerous idea. I suppose they each could be given a copy of Native Stranger: A Black American's Journey into the Heart of Africa by Eddy L. Harris. He went not as a tourist, but in total immersion, entirely on his own, arrested as a spy in Liberia, eating rat stew deeply immersed with the true people. While you can lead a horse to water, you can't make them drink, however. Some problems have no solution, or as Buddha said, until all are enlightened none can be truly free.
Of course not, you see, ignorant racist only believe gangsters and criminals are Black and therefore must have ties to Africa . You see, first, you have to possess the mind of a ignorant racist, then subtract an additional 100 IQ points, and only then you'll understand the genius of this suggestion.
Smh. I don't think people in Spain would appreciate you referring to them as Latinos as they are not from Latin America. I think statements like the one above are why racism and ignorance are often associated.
OK. But only as long as you send Mafiosi back to Italy and all other organized criminals back to their country of origin. This includes those who stole land from the Indians. Deal?
many folks think all Zionist Jews should be forced to move to Israel, since their political allegiances are questionable
Sure ... let us know when you have the balls to deliver the message --> http://aboutthemafia.com/2017-mafia-family-leaders
The important thing is that we treat all "thugs" alike. After all, we don't in discrimination, do we?
I got an idea ... I bet there's at least 3 or 4 Thugs NOW, on the corner of 41st and King Drive in Chicago ... How about we get one our Baddest-Ass; to go there and send them back to Africa? When you land I'll volunteer to drive.
