Gang Poll

The poll that was recently put out here on this blog asked the following question:
What do you honestly think about the gangs in your area? Is the problem getting worse?
100% of the votes that were cast all stated IT'S GETTING WORSE!

Thank you to all who took the time to vote on this. Now - lets get busy and learn to educate ourselves on the ganglife so that we can better protect our communities and our children.
Take Care and stay safe!

Yes, it is getting worse. A lot of the problem is single parent households without enough authority to get the kids to behave. A strong two parent household is really important.

Also, too many people are being turned over to the state which is neither a good mother nor a good father. Something like 40% of children in state homes end up in a life in crime.

We need to strengthen the family, and strengthen the incentives for adoption. Many children would be better off with a family than in foster homes.

The gangs recruit directly out of the orphanages and state run homes.

Also we need to make it clear that staying in school is good for people.

Do whatever it takes.

Thanks for stopping by earlier.

The Books Not Bars program is a good example of this.
