It’s a culture and iq problem

I agree that it's a culture problem. I've spoken about it on TD at length (this is the most recent time I recall: LINK ). The issue is that people who view themselves as either ignored by or targeted by "the law" tend to form honor based cultures. Honor based cultures are fricking catastrophes. The War on Drugs is over: drugs won. Just like we gave up on the failed experiment of alcohol prohibition, it's time for us to give up on the failed experiment of drug prohibition. And just like the prohibition of alcohol fostered an honor based culture among those, particular "the mob", engaged in alcohol production and sales, drug prohibition has fostered an honor based culture among those engaged in the production and sale of drugs.

Do you have numbers on how many of those incarcerated by the war on drugs were part of their children's household?

I don't know that those numbers exist, but if they do, I don't have them. If I had to guess, the percentage of those that were part of their children's households at the onset of the War on Drugs (which is primarily what I was referring to, being the entire conversation presupposes that the children of those arrested have reached adulthood at the point the conversation is being had) were astronomically higher than the percentage now. That's my point. The War on Drugs was "declared" in 1971:

Has anyone confirmed this is real? I’m thinking that page dubbed over gunfire sounds on a street meet at the Top Golf.

LOL most of the "great society" was completed in 1968 so their in really lies the problem - the vast majority of those dudes weren't in home parents - is a very very safe wager.

The legislation was completed, but the impact of that legislation is going to phase in over time. Great Society culminating in 1968 and the War on Drugs (which is obviously going to have a far more immediate impact) launching in 1971 are, combined, significantly responsible for the astronomical increase shown in the graph in my previous post.

Shootout near Top Golf in Baton Rouge



The Target that is just down Seigen lane is referred to as the "Ghetto Target", and the walmart that is in the same shopping area as that top golf is full of section 8 people.. So this checks out.


And THEY say whites take all the cool shite from them.. I saw a video on FB the other day joking about "How much longer are we going to let white people have pickleball?"

Fatigue is real.

The city of Baton Rouge annexed this because it was a “money maker” area and the were trying to hurt St George.

Yep. Now the use businesses/property owners are going to have to deal with their decisions (yes, I realize TG was not around when it was annexed).

No, they’re apparently more worried about a lady who stole $700 worth of candy from a store in Port Allen

For years - not a couple years, for over 6 years EVERY Friday and Saturday late night at 2AM for about 15-20 minutes you can hear the motors revving and some type of racing taking place. I live (as the crow fly) 6 miles from Top golf/conns parking lots.

Driving on I-10 this weekend and 4 Chargers driving in a pack. Going very slow to create room to floor it. They are dangerous when doing this crap. I've trying to avoid sharing any road with this stupidity.

----------------------------
I've been caught up in chargers racing in daylight from 1-12 o'neal area to down airline where I exited for safety and they were going that way too. There were about 20 of them. I was so scared I almost wrecked. Thank goodness children weren't in the car with me. I hear them race between prairieville and siegen on 1-10 at night. Wish someone would crack down on the charger situation

Fkn basketball Canadians ruin everything. No societal discipline. Literally zero police presence to enforce anything. They rather sit in their nuts and do jack shite. Failure on all fronts. Complete embarrassment

Those animals needs to move to grand isle

The amount of "take overs" and other bullshite that involves mass amounts of a certain race, that I have seen on social media the last month is wild. How are they only 13% of the population, but literally can "takeover" major cities all over the third largest country on the planet?

Houston was a nightmare during Spring break.
