You offer a wellstated, clear counterpoint, and that is refreshing.

I would have agreed with you years ago. I no longer agree.

The key term is *personal* responsibility.

Okay. I confess.

Now, I am not comparing myself to Gibbons or Adam Smith.

Did you read the 6th word in the quote you are referencing? The word is "not."

Places like India have much less violence but have had greater poverty problems, young unplanned pregnancy's and lack of education but not the murder rate and there is no "war on drugs" .
Where drugs are legal and controlled for above 18 only crime is very low.

Mr. Rose was precisely correct and your babble, while well written, is precisely wrong, mostly due to the length and complexity of your essay and the brevity and simplicity of Mr. Rose's. How could you possibly debate what he said, especially with all that "community involvement" and "health resources" and "birth control" mumbo jumbo?

Chris, I can't believe you are engaging in this sophistry.

Chris, you have a point, but my friend, institutions are and will always be part of the problem. Our children, all our children, black, white, brown, yellow and otherwise are not taught in school about birth control, there are no condom dispensers, there are no lessons about parental responsibility, or healthy relationships.

I am reminded of an incident last summer. I went to the Alvar Street Library and was so happy to see groups of African-American (only) children gathered around an adult who was reading to them and doing some type of craft work.
