Where does responsibility belong?
The cause of all the wickedness and evil in the world today can be blamed on one person and that is man. … There is an absence of love in the world. No one wants to take responsibility for their actions. It is easier to blame someone else. Case in point, the shootings in the Friendly City.
Where does the responsibility belong? It belongs to the individual, but also, what about the adults in their life. “Raise up a child in the right way and he will not stray from it.” Does that make sense? Lets take our streets, neighborhoods and city back.
The police can only do their job when the public does theirs. See something, say something. If fear of retaliation is there, band together. It has been said,” For a good man to do nothing is to let evil prevail.”
Run the thugs out.
The police are not our enemy. They have a tough job with little thanks. I could not do the job, I am glad there are those that are willing to.
