I don’t understand what you mean. I think he was just saying that if he disobeyed his grandmother, she was tougher than the police.
Which implies might-makes-right. You would understand if you stopped to ponder.
The point is, that such stories did not stand alone. They also stood together with a widespread ethos that mere ordinary social good behavior was not enough to get along in Whitey’s world. That one had to kiss up to Whitey. And so the grandmother was teaching fear of Whitey, internalizing Whitey’s wrath. The result not even being God centered but selfishness centered, where the selfishness of Whitey was running the show.
Pendulums do what pendulums do — they swing. The bad behavior of today — an over reaction to the excesses of the past — does not exist without context. And neither will any real remedy.
Nobody understands what he means. Most of his posts make no sense.
He is a pot stirrer, taking the contrary position on EVERY. SINGLE. ISSUE. I have ever seen him post on.
It’s like he just likes to hear himself talk and cause trouble for the attention.
Read his posting history and you’ll see.
You're right. It wasn't hard to figure out.
I got a laugh out of it too.
