You often hear of people who say the various jail and prison systems are breeding grounds for thug-like anti social behaviors for young black men. The general talking points stem around when a young black man enters the correctional system, the subsequent environment just makes matters worse. Like entering a hierarchial system of organized cage match / MMA fights.
Few, if any, intellectually honest people are brave enough to admit the breeding ground for “Thug Life” begins far earlier than the engagements with the correctional system. Why, well, because it is a difficult yet obvious conversation.
Obvious because the behaviors are noted much earlier than the first time they are engaged with law enforcement.
Yet difficult, because when you admit it starts much earlier you put the burden of cause upon the parents.
Yet, isn’t that exactly where the burden of cause should lay?
