Get a job, go to church, go to school, clean up the neighborhood, not shoot guns?

They don’t have father’s, that’s for sure. LBJ made sure of that. Yet, the same voting block continues to vote a certain way after all that time. Get a little taxpayer money, and have the Democratic Party make excuses is to why 13 % of the population causes a shite ton of problems. LBJ wasn’t lying when he said where going to have these people voting Democrat for the next 100 years.

Yeah but thats already in the budget, it seems like this dude is saying funding is needed to provide things that schools already provide.

I do think, if done right, there could be a facility that can be put in poor areas that would be extremely beneficial. A place kids and teenagers can go where there are people there who can help with homework, introduce them to new things. Something that will discourage from joining gangs. Its not going to stop them all, but it would just end up being something where there will be a lot of mismanaged funds going on where only the bare minimum is provided because there will be the types like Gary Chambers who pretend to want to help his community because he sees an opportunity to where he would have access to a budget that he will end up dipping his hands into.

There’s plenty of money, but the administration has to hire their friends first.

These facilities already exist. They are called schools.

I know you mean well, but the only time some people ever acted right was when our governments were run by reputable people. These people don't want anyone running their lives except for those that will let them run rampant in the streets.

This whole mindset is part of the problem. Why does it have to be sports or bust? so few people succeed in those professions
