    Before college there is the public school system, being a tennager growing up in a proverty stricken area with the idea that school is not so ideal as is crime.

    Then off to college with Govt money- did it pay for you to move? To eat? To support your mom back home that relied on your income from work to help feed your brothers and sisters and help pay the rent? Did it pay for your books (mine did not) clothes, social activities?

    What there is no excuse for is assuming that such social climates are black and white issues (not referring to human skin color here).

    While your at it- why not explain what love is, the belief in God, how to stop war, and how to milk a duck with a crowbar.
