I do agree there a systemic decline in what is considered the American family structure.
But the decay of the family is way more prevalent in the Afro-American community.
I have no facts, but I suspect Asian-Americans probably have the highest traditional family % by race.
And while I think the overall decline of two parent families isn't simply an issue of race, the numbers suggest the problem is higher in black communities.
Instead of making excuses like Lakeboy7, it's time for someone to point out the problem and maybe, just maybe do something to improve it.
Bill Cosby tried and felt the backlash of the AA community.
Alan West tried and the liberal media dismisses him and claims he's insane.
Education is the first step.

I think that acknowledgement that there is an issue is the first step.

As a black man I would like to apologize to white America for being born in this country after 1969, not growing up like Beaver Clever, and causing you all so many problems. If you all could please tell me where the boat going back to Africa is departing I will promptly arrive for my deportation.
