I spent 20 years in the military and knew, worked with and enjoyed many friends who were black, hispanic or some other minority. I am heartsick over the possibility of some on either side of the color line choosing to ramp this situation up. BUT! I am not blind either. In this country about 78%-82% of all murders are committed by blacks. About 13% to 15% are committed by hispanics. Only 4% to 6% are committed by whites who make up about 75% of the population. This is indeed a problem of the thug culture BUT a problem of the thug culture in the black and hispanic community. Statistically as a white man I am 48 times more likely to be murdered by a black person then a white person. I cannot get on the bandwagon that says this is NOT racial. It shouldn't be, we may well live in the least racist country in the world with the most opportunities for people of color. It wasn't always that way but it is today and has been for longer then these young thugs have been alive. But instead of getting better it is getting worse and the ONLY reason I can see to explain that is that it is too valuable to the race pimps and Democrats to allow it to end. Race and racism MUST be promoted or they lose their power. Until we can fix THAT problem and turn around the thugocracy I won't be taking any night time walks in black nieghborhoods and won't go to many really dangerous nieghborhoods day or night. My safety (and your and everyones) requires we understand the racial component of this problem.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1592992209402300549.post-34096688437926194822013-08-25T12:54:19.973-04:002013-08-25T12:54:19.973-04:00This is actually a topic that's a mile deep. ...This is actually a topic that's a mile deep. Society is being changed by the leftists at extreme speed and we just don't know how long relationships like the one in that Heritage article are going to hold. I think they'll hold, but I sure don't know.<br /><br />A lot of men are avoiding marriage just as they're avoiding college since the "chickification" of school has punished boys for learning like boys and only rewarded girls for learning like girls. In any dispute in a marriage, a man has virtually no rights; the legal system has been set up to give women almost 100% control in domestic matters. If a single woman chooses to abort a child, she has that right up until the moment the baby is born. In other words, whether it's a baby or "mass of tissue" is strictly her decision. A guy has no rights in that situation at all. If a single guy should get a woman pregnant, he has no say so in whether she keeps it or not. If she keeps it against his will, he will usually be ordered to support the child. If she aborts it against his will, he has absolutely no recourse. <br /><br />Because marriage and family has been the foundation of society, and such a strong part of western culture, the leftists had to destroy it in order to make the state supreme. "It takes a village", not families. They are succeeding. <br /> <br />SiGraybeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00280583031339062059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1592992209402300549.post-14067893386574033822013-08-25T11:56:23.585-04:002013-08-25T11:56:23.585-04:00While true your points miss the point.

What matters is not just the thug culture but the many people who self identify with a specific race who are being pandered to by race pimps who have to hype the anti-black belief to keep the blacks voting the right way and in line. This year they are killing whites in retribution for Trayvon Martin next year the race pimps will appear in a different town pimping a different case and more retribution will follow that as well. It is time the victims of this black on white violence take the race pimps to court.

They are not legally married.<br /><br />They both work full time, and make decent money (around 40k each in real rough numbers) and have full health insurance at either/both employers. They live together, have for a while, and will continue to do so in the house they own.<br /><br />Changing nothing else, but getting legally married will cost them $5000-$7000 per year in tax penalties. They ran the numbers and a 10% net income hit was enough to make that easy math for them. They won't be getting married. The taxing power of the state has made marriage a losing proposition.Ben Cnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1592992209402300549.post-86756271327965781282013-08-25T00:43:26.531-04:002013-08-25T00:43:26.531-04:00in the event this has not been seen:
