ProfD He could have asked for help. And get told how weak he was, for it? Or get told how stupid he was, for it? As a Black man, you should know how little pity society often feels for Black males. A lot of times we don't even feel sorry for eachother even when we know what we go through as a group. Many more people would be better off if they didn't spend so much time doing dumb sh8t. Gambling away decades of life eventually comes up snake eyes. You're right. Much of it is out of ignorance. A lot of men do dumb shit that they don't think is dumb at the time. They think they're making wise or smart decisions on how to get ahead or be successful in life. The 17 year old boy who sells dope doesn't see it as a stupid decision at that age; he sees it as a smart move in order to make money and get girls. Only as he gets older does he realize how silly and dangerous it really is. In my kingdom, that would not stop me from putting able-bodies folks to work. Something tells me that when it comes to putting folks to work.....Kim Jon Un would end up TAKING NOTES from you on how to make the North Korean work force even MORE efficient....lol. "That one....overthere.....how old is he? He's about to die anyway, give him only ONE bowl of rice a day" I'll find some type of work they can enjoy doing Something is really telling me....that WALMART GREETERS.....simply wouldn't exist in your kingdom. You haven't actually said this, but I'm getting those vibes....lol.
