Desegregation destroyed the black economy.




Didn't exactly help the schools, neighborhoods, crime, etc.

Hahaha, not born in the 50s or 60s, but this is moronic.

Today's generation is creating divides and labels that never even existed

If only America could go back to where Jesus was in the household, courthouse, and school room, we’d have a lot less problems. Back to when families did things together and sat around the table to eat a meal. Back when people weren’t occupied with others business and social media and phones, back when marriages were built on a stable foundation of God’s word and trust - as oppose to one night stands and dating apps. Back when men were men, and people knew how to cook home made meals


This is how I live. Married 38+ years. Had a bunch of family over for lunch as we get together every Sunday.

Homicide rate approached what they had in the 50s in 2015 (probably due to mass incarceration) but has increased again

So for you to come on here and chastise us of the 50s, 60s (and 40s) doesn't upset me about me. It bothers the hell out of me for your sake. 



I'm 58, and kind of feel the same way. My generation dropped the ball on a lot of things. The generation before us paved the way. Greed is what's caused most of this country's problems. People can blame groups of people, or a say it's something else, but having integrity went by the wayside somewhere along the way. The people that run things don't give a rat's arse about right, and wrong. No decision is made without the dollar being the determining factor in whether we do something, or not. I don't see that changing any time soon.
