Violence, Looting, Rioting are Destroying America

Seems like everyday more than one than one video about small and large cities being torn to pieces by rioters, looters and criminals. It looks to be a normalized behavior now especially in large cities like Chicago, Los Angeles and New York. Stores are being smashed and ransacked which leads to millions of dollars in losses and them closing. Towns are burned, cars are stomped and people are attacked just for the heck of it. I cannot understand why we as a culture have went so far down hill. I blame it on a few things that are driving this behavior and actions of these mobs and criminals.

1- The breakdown of the traditional family. We have too many baby daddies in America that are not fathers. These kids are being born out of lust and sexual relationships and are not being fathered. They grow up poor and in poverty to a single mother and dad that is absent. They turn to the streets and gangs and the cycle continues.

2- Big cities do not hold these people accountable for their actions. They get a slap on the wrist, especially in the large Democratic cities by slack district attorneys that do not back the police when they make an arrest.

3- Social media portrays this to the younger generation as normal and what people should be doing. They are running around breaking in houses, robbing, assaulting, killing and looting just to do it.

I saw a video this week of hundreds of people in Chicago ransacking a Walmart taking everything. This Walmart was the main center of access to many older folks and disabled people that live in the that poor neighborhood. They close the doors and then the mayor and his cronies blame Walmart instead of the source of the problem. The problem is the lack of parenting, morals and community pride that does not exist on those criminals and looters.

They take the easy way out. Take short cuts in life. Lay around and do not work and destory their own neighborhoods with violence over drugs and money. Then blame everyone but themselves. My opinion is they are in that poverty because they choose not to learn to read, write, build skills and do better in life. They grew up being told they are a victim and have a victim mentality. Then life goes bad and they react by destroying it for everyone else.

I cannot understand all the violence and destruction other than to say that God has been taken out of the picture and the devil has taken over these people. It drives me nuts to see a mom on television talking about her poor pitiful son who was a “good kid” or ” good person” that is now dead from gang wars, violence or drug abuse. We as a country have gotten so out of hand and mad at the world.

A young couple was shot for pulling into a driveway and turning around. A six year old was shot because his ball went into a mans yard. Road rage is everywhere with people shooting, punching and ramming others with cars over a traffic issue. Kids are killing each other nightly in cities. White, black, hispanic and all others are involved. We have suddenly went back to the 1960’s where the world suddenly thinks everyone is a racist if they disagree or look different.

Colleges are teaching young people that violence is the answer. If someone disagrees with you go and protest. Protest are a given right, but no one has the right to put their hands on someone else over a political belief or disagreement in values and morals. If you do not believe in LGBTQ then you are deemed to be a bigot. Then an LGBTQ person kills Christians and they get a celebration by the President of the United States.

This nation is getting lost in politics and identity crisis. We need to turn our head to God and away from the devil. Stop the violence, poor behavior and aggressiveness. We need law and order. We need compassion. We need security on small towns and large cities. We need our rights to free speech, gun ownership and living the American dream pushing forward. We need kids to pay attention in school and stop watching social media in class.

We need parents that back the teachers and administrators at school when their child is a pain in the butt. Instead they come to school and show out on behalf of the child. Then the kid gets in major trouble and the parent suddenly directs the blame at white people, black people, poverty, no daddy, etc. Take accountability and start holding people accountable. It is getting bac out there so be careful, be on your toes and watch out for these young criminals that are trying to get their free stuff or 15 minutes of fame on social media.

Ways to Avoid These Problems:

1- Avoid large cities and big crowds

2- Stay strapped and be ready to protect yourself

3- Shop online or during the day and always take a friend or family with you.

4- Keep your head on a swivel and be mindful of who is near you.

5- Pray that our country begins to heal itself soon and stops this violence that is taking our babies from us one by one.
