black young men are killing their own. they cause their areas to be of no value and hurt all their people. they set it up for the rich white developers to make a killing (pun intended). i have no respect for black hip hop, thug youth. they are the biggest toms i have seen in my life. they set the table for their own destruction.
In a lot of ways it just seems like the situation has magnified and grown. I used to live in Overbrook, and that's where my grandmother still lives, and I just can't, or say I don't want to believe, that the city has fallen on dire straits like this. But it doesn't surprise me if all the corruption you mentioned earlier is in full swing.
