The Moynihan Report (1965)
It's a very long read, but you can skim through and find things like:

"In a word, a national effort towards the problems of Negro Americans must be directed towards the question of family structure.
The object should be to strengthen the Negro family so as to enable it to raise and support its members as do other families."

Forty five years and billions of dollars later ...

Well, the Democrats, with their welfare-state pandering ("the Ingrate Society"), sure took care of "the Negro family", didn't they? Great idea, replacing the father with a welfare check.... Hey, who can blame most blacks for voting Democrat these days? (shrug) Yeah, that's the ticket... All they need are "kick me" signs to tape to their own backs. All you can do is shake your freaking head at the crass stupidity.

I read your headline as Jackson and Louis however-you-spell-his-name were beaten at a funeral.

That’s what I saw as well. Wishful thinking, to be sure.

Glad I wasn't the only one!

Chicago Tribune columnist Clarence Page wrote a column a few days ago blaming poverty as the cause of violence, not race.
I wrote the SOB an email and told him that if in the mid 1960s he could see what "black america" looked like today, he'd have to conclude the KKK had been running the country for the last 40 years.

If poverty were the main problem, only grocerty stores would be robbed (for food) and kids would not be shot for their “bling” and Nikes.

Like every libtard argument, just ask them when will we have spent “enough” (for education,poverty,whatever.)They won’t have an answer.
