Now that
the media has squeezed all the juice out of the horrific genocide that’s
happening in Chicago, Illinois; let’s move past the numbers and statistics, to the
only solution worth discussing. Since the elections are over there is no need
for politicians to exert any amount of energy for a vote. We can’t expect politicians to verbally soothe
our itching ears with what’s taking place in Chi-Raq (Chicago), by making empty
promises or just flat-out lying to the people.
The answer
that will come down the pipe from the government to combat this spike in
violence and increase in murders will be to throw more police officers on the
street; and if needed, turn the city of Chicago into a town of martial law.
While I
agree with portions of the government’s answer to put more officers on the
streets, “To Serve and Protect”, I strongly disagree with who’s primarily
responsible to “Serve and Protect”. As
an African American, it’s shameful and disheartening when our communities
become environments that generate more children with P.T.S.D. than high school
graduates.
The family
unit is the first form of government that a child is introduced to. The family
unit is where we learn about authority in a loving environment BUT if this unit
is disabled, it often times leads to a distorted perception of personal
responsibility and respect for self and authority.
Chicago’s
Finest isn’t the police officers or the National Guard, but the finest officers
are and will be the parents. Selah
