"You think it's okey to go to a nice neighborhood, let the grass die, throw trash everywhere and have big parties where the cops are called in the middle of the night acceptable? Is that your solution to the nazi's?"The nice people who live in the nice neighborhood are most often responsible for this problem. In New York, for example, graffitti is often home-grown - but it's easier to rely on racial stereotypes (as you have in your posts) than think the problem through and work on solutions. In Kansas City, a hiring hall, usually the subject of stereotypes on LI, set up for migrant Mexican laborers was paired up with a police ministation. Icontributed a computer system to this effort. 911 calls on that street, mostly related to crimes against the laborers themselves by a few troublemakers, went from 15 a day to zero in amatter of a couple of weeks. The laborers had a place to take care of wage paperwork, a place to wash their clothes and shower, and a place to arrange workb assignments. The troublemakers were tracked with the help of the computer and software, and arrests were quicker. Immigration authorities deported the worst of them more quickly than they would otherwise. I wish you luck getting rid of your hatred and your insensitivity. You sure do have a lot of it. |
