Looking in the Mirror

It's sad that a child raised by horrible parents can't make positive choices or decisions.

The unfortunate issue is how easily corrupt and bad choices become the norm for young African Americans ages 15-49, without a second thought.

This ghetto mentality, drug and gang infested behavior has hurt and defined some of the people of this group for life.

Trying to do or be better is something they don't subscribe to until they have spent most of their important years behind bars.

Yes, the parents/parent is to blame for their initial growing years, but at sometime in their lives, common sense one would hope would prevail. Killing each other for foolishness or selling drugs makes them feel empowered, but it only shows a lack of knowledge for whom they are or could be. I truly felt these types of movies have become the norm for African American because it speaks to some of their lives and lifestyles. But not to all.
