Bloods vs. Crips *HELP*

 

Why do they keep fighting?  Isn’t there something the world can do to stop the killing?  Better schooling, more work opportunities,

I just watched the documentary titled, “Crips and Bloods: Made in America”  Directed by Stacey Peralta, it’s an iside look at the Los Angelas gang problems, the history and present of the issues and it’s heart wrenching to know that this is going on and although there are some support groups in place they don’t seem to have the funding or the political support to actually see success in their aims.

Low income and poor education, drugs, and violence plague the black male population of Los Angelas and the circumstances are almost unavoidable for a black person growing up in these neighborhoods of L.A.  They either kill or be killed or end up in jail.   They didn’t choose their destiny it was forced on them, it’s up to us the people not experiencing the situation firsthand to deliver them from their torments.

Banzai!!

It’s my New Year’s resolution to eat healthier, exercise and ultimately lose some weight but I had one of these for dinner with some yam fries at the local Red Robin. Wow am I in trouble with my girl-friend/dietitian.  If you haven’t had one of these you have to try one, they are delicious and if you don’t try one now, well, you’ll always wonder.
