Violence

I have never understood the concept of purposefully harming another human being physically. There is a new documentary about the Bloods and the Crips, which details the struggle of the youth in those troubled areas of Los Angeles throughout that area's history. I am interested in what drives children to such violence and ways we can prevent these situations. The movie talks about a broken and racist society that has essentially bred domestic terrorism over time. I vote for a stimulus package to be issued from Washington. A push for a new way of thinking. Let's use the water under the bridge to soften the soil of our countries difficult past and reform the way we approach each other on an individual level. No more race. We are the human race and we have made a mess out of things all across the board. Let's learn from past mistakes and set aside ignorant pretenses.
