Even former champ Ernie Terrell doesn't feel safe in Roseland :: CHICAGO SUN-TIMES :: Boxing/UFC/MMA
Well folks this is what happens in any "war zone", anywhere in the world. The innocent bystanders, the residents, and all the other people that spent years watching the place they call home, deteriorate into a war zone.
Those who have the means, are able to get out. Those that don't, just pray for an end to the senseless violence. It truly is a shame that certain pockets of city neighborhoods have been slightly turned into combat zones because certain parents have given up on their children. These hooligans have no respect for anything but death, mayhem, and debauchery. Hell, they can't even wear a pair of pants correctly.
So what do you do? Turn these certain pockets of neighborhoods into police states? Swoop in and grab these kids off the streets, and stoop to their level by beating them into submission? Or do we sit back and watch them just kill one another, till they are no more? If these kids refuse to continue getting an education, maybe we should consider reinstating "The Draft"? It is an alternative idea for those that stand before a judge in either a juvenile, or adult criminal hearing or trial. In essence, let's give them a choice. Spend the rest of their lives behind prison bars, with no future, or become something of yourself?
The reason these kids "fear" nothing is understandable. They know for a fact, our justice system will soon let them out, back on the streets. Let's take that certainty away from them, for good. Doing such, will give the innocent bystanders, the residents, and all the other people, the ability of never seeing their place they call home, deteriorate into a war zone ever again.
If the draft is reinstated then what would become of the teenagers that are doing something positive & trying to make something of themselves? There should be a program in place where these repeat offenders should be enlisted into the Military pending their test scores, if they score low off to the marines you go.
ReplyDeleteI agree. Also a year of military service with college credit, and no overseas, or wartime deployments for those that do "make something of themselves". A little discipline, and structure never hurt anyone.
