HC my own theory is that it's partly because many of the people that we are allowing to have a *voice* in our community have NO HOME TRAINING (ex: rappers)?
HC whose idea was it to recruit the worst of the worst who have absolutely no home training to speak to the kids and young adults?
HC that was not a good plan?
HC was Smokey Robinson and The Temptations and 'nem hoodlums before becoming singers?
HC I'm tired of hoodlums on the radio and their effect on our community?
HC hoodlums be quiet, please?

HC I know that Motown put its artists through charm and poise school in the 1960s?
HC if you tried to do that today, people would be screaming about "assimilation" and "acting white?"
HC I agree that rappers and others who don't have any home training are putting out ridiculous images that are hard to shake?
HC we just don't have the margin for error that other populations have?
