Agreed. Thug culture is the problem. I posted this in another thread, but I believe there is only one answer to the thug culture. Complete, on the spot, eradication of gang members. The war on drugs has failed. Prison is not a deterrent. The only thing left is, eradication.
Gang members are akin to terrorists. We, as a society, cannot abide gangs anymore.
A long time ago I was pondering the 'thug' problem myself. I came to the same conclusion as you, complete eradication.
Nothing has even helped the problem a little, prison, hand-outs, affirmative action, NOTHING.
I've never stated it as it would be akin to genocide and that's not very popular, but how else can this problem be solved? The young MUST be brought up in different circumstances for them to know any different, and the only way to achieve that is to permanently remove the problem.
It's become a culture, but not one that America as a whole can afford to support any longer.
