TKC Reader Touts Black Family Values Over Progressive Criminologist Theories

A bold and possibly controversial news item suggested by AN AWESOME TKC READER highlights a traditional strategy to fight crime . . .

"We should re-adopt the values and practices of our ancestors. Black families of yesteryear were mainly two-parent and stable, even during slavery."

  1. The "Great Society" system established two changes to Black Families that created the situation we have today, and that both Political Parties act to maintain..

    1) an Incentive to have as many children (and therefore as much "income") as possible.

    2) a Disincentive to marry and have a Male presence permanently in the Family (a loss of "income").

    It should be noted that many African Americans did not and still do not "buy in" to this scheme, they still have both a Mother and Father present(both probably working, frequently more than one job), and they pay attention to, guide, set goals for, and discipline their children so the kids have some level of self respect and self control.

    Government, at all levels, is antithetical to these Black Families, and penalizes them for not following the path that "Government" has established.

    Here's to these REBELS!

  2. The author, Walter Williams, had long planned the blame for blacks' criminal behavior on the black community. That, unfortunately, does not fit the current narrative that "it takes a village" or that it's racism or it's slavery or whatever. We will continue to spend billions locking people up and administering worthless programs until we admit that the problem can only be fixed from within.

    The military has the housing allowance at basically two levels-with dependants and without dependants (there is also "difference", but it's mostly "with" or "without").
    Why not have Welfare be like the military? One dependant or 10 dependants get the same amount. There is no monetary incentive for having more children; in fact, it may cut down on the poverty pregnancies.
    I believe that the people on the current program may remain on the current program. And the new rules wouldn't take effect for one year after it becomes law, for those currently pregnant or about to be pregnant. Yes, I realize a pregnancy is 9 months, but a year would avoid legal challenges for those on the cusp.
    One amount. No matter how many dependants. Like the military.

  4. Changing incentives is too late, it has become a self-sustaining problem. The liberals destroyed the black family, without this cohesive unit, there is no discipline. The current black utes are two to four generations removed from civilized organization. The act of procreation is completely spontaneous, there is no thought of the future in either participant that: "this may lead to a baby" let alone "lets have a baby". How do you re-instill this into the community? Eff if I know. Their leaders, their parents, their participants are the only ones the remainder of the black loosely associated "community" will even remotely pay attention to. Self-aggrandizing prog whites have lost their "control" of the black race and use it simply as a living vote machine to remain in power.

    Yes, that's true, but having to spread money between more and more kids should force the women to not get pregnant. The men couldn't care less. Unfortunately, the women will need to slow it down, and most people understand less money.

  10. The first step is blacks acknowledging that they are the problem, next they need to acknowledge that only they can fix the problem.
