#38You can't change what you don't acknowledge
As long as blacks, and liberals, blame everyone else but themselves for their problems things will only get worse
Although their are many variables at play, the direct blame goes to those perpetrating the violence, PERIOD
The idea that this is their only option in life is ludicrous
LeBron James is a phony piece of crap
You obviously have zero knowledge of how "his school" will work
The overwhelming majority of the cost of it is on the taxpayer for the construction and the yearly budget
His foundation will kick in money, however the notion that somehow he is footing the bill for the school is laughable and just plain ignorant
You couldn't count the number of people who have done more for kids because it would be an endless taskComment -

#39Chicago is just a messed up inner city. The overall city is awesome.
The gangs have been running things for decades and with it being a huge dope distribution center everything just got 1000x crazier. The good people in the neighborhoods need a lifeline. The cops are just as bad as the gang bangers. They aren’t the answer. No politicians can fix this overnight either. Pointing fingers at a party is stupid. Families need to take care of their own. Then you take care of your neighborhoods. Big government and investors will pay attention once that happens. People don’t want to invest their money in bad neighborhoods. If you are picking up your 9 year old at the station for a possession charge you need to be held accountable too. Don’t bitch about the system when you can’t take care of your own. At least half a generation of Chicago kids have already been lost to drugs, prison, homelessness and/or death because parents aren’t taking care of their business. Education needs to be the first priority. Education provides opportunities outside the dope boy bullshit life. What Lebron is trying to do in Akron is what our country needs more of.
The drug money these kids are killing each other over are just feeding our entire country’s demand. Until we as a nation find a sensible approach to drug enforcement, treatment and alternatives this will only get worse.
Just because "liberals" are not obsessed with judging and blaming does not equate to "blaming everyone else".
It obviously burns your hateful soul to see anyone else thinking in loving ways!.Comment -

#40Politicians and the Police can fix this.. Up the present of police force in the worst areas, inform the media have them roll in and report, begin massive raids, seek help from other outside law enforcement agencies.. Bring in the DEA, FBI, etc.
They did thise years back here in Compton and the LBC here in California when it was really bad and it worked for a time.. You need to drop the hammer on crime and build more jails and not just catch and release with short sentencing because jails are over crowded..
Chicago is doing none of this^^^..
Funny thing is Trump has offered help, Chicago leaders won't take him up on the offer... Trump decided he's gonna step in Federally anyways now and help as he announced Friday.. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-u...-idUSKBN19L1JB
All of the law enforcement you mentioned are a huge part of the problem. LA and the rest of SoCal is worse than ever. LA cops are a gang. Chicago cops are a gang. They steal, assault and murder. The good cops allow it and keep quiet because of the “blue wall” but they expect people they arrest to talk. Politicians allow the drugs and guns to be readily available. Why is our military still guarding the poppy fields in Afghanistan?
Trump, just like a majority of our politicians, doesnt give a shit about Chicago. He will talk a big game while assisting his friends and big donors off privatized prisons. Just how it is. Big money to be made from so many different avenues with privatized prisons.Comment -

Jesus Man! This is a weekly thing - why aren't all the "advocate groups" more outraged and looking to do something about this? But no, Trump just Tweeted something, so let's analyze that for the next 12 hours.....
Chi-Raq is getting to the point where we might have to call in the National Guard to take control of this city.....Comment -
