Gun
violence: The real crime is the refusal to face the TRUTH
THE
Melanie
Phillips
COLUMN
[Daily Mail-February 19 -2007]
ANOTHER shooting in the early hours of yesterday in North London adds to
the grisly toll of gangland gun violence over the past fortnight.
There
has been particular revulsion at the youth of some of these murder
victims - two of them -only 15, and one 16 years old, and the humdrum
settings of their killings, with one gunned down at an ice rink, one at
home and another in his bedroom.
This
shocking situation has elicited the predictable signs of political
panic. The Prime Minister says
SOMETHING MUST BE DONE
He
Calls A Summit of Ministers and Community Leaders.
He
floats the possibility of lowering the age limit from 21 to 17, and
giving more powers to the police.
These
are all knee-jerk reactions. The problem is
NOT
TOO FEW LAWS or NOT ENOUGH POLICE
POWERS
IT IS
that the LAWS we already have ARE ACTIVELY UNDERMINED by a CULTURE that
is sliding TOWARDS SOCIAL ANARCHY.
AT
THE HEART of the PROBLEM is
FAMILY BREAKDOWN.
-and
the widening epidemic of
FATHERLESSNESS
-condoned and promoted by political and legal circles hell-bent on
DESTROYING MARRIAGE
and
promoting the MYTH that every KIND of FAMILY
IS
AS GOOD AS ANY OTHER.
*
Entrenched
At
last week's devastating UNICEF REPORT observed Britain is at the very
bottom of the
LEAGUE of WESTERN NATIONS
-when
it comes to
CHILDREN'S WELL-BEING.
-and
the root cause of that is nothing other than the
DISINTEGRATION OF THE
FAMILY.
In
such shattered family backgrounds the young person's peer group becomes
his surrogate family and the
GANG
LEADER
-becomes his surrogate family and the
GANG
LEADER
-his
replacement
FATHER
This
is a particular problem for the
BLACK
COMMUNITY
-where
FATHERLESSNESS IS
ENDEMIC
and
DRUG CULTURE ENTRENCHED
This
fundamental breakdown in social control is then compounded by just about
every agency that deals with young people.
The
schools deliver a broken education system, with the most vulnerable
children left illiterate and innumerate; with the same
'child-centred' dogma
destroying all boundaries and discipline;
and
with special schools catering for the most disturbed children shut down
in the benighted cause of
SOCIAL INCLUSION.
The
criminal justice system has become a
REVOLVING DOOR
-with
those few young criminals who are actually arrested being given the
equivalent of a slap on the wrist and sent home, from where they are
sucked into a widening spiral of crime and more fruitless court
appearances.
Worst
of all is the total shambles of the
DRUGS
POLICY
which
has led directly to the
EPIDEMIC OF DRUGS ON
OUR STREETS.
-the
rise in drug use and the ever younger age of both users and dealers.
This
appalling situation the direct result of the grip of the drug
legalisation lobby on the
Government - Police and
Fashionable Society
-the
downgrading of cannabis and the subsequent explosion of hard drugs as
the bottom fell out of the flooded cannabis market.
When
they look at the recent carnage on the streets of Moss Side and
Longsight in Manchester, or Streatham, Peckham, Camberwell, Clapham and
Hackney in London, all these people who promoted this chain of events
SHOULD HANG THEIR HEADS
IN SHAME
THIS BLOOD IS ON THEIR
HANDS.
On
top of all this is the profound racism of a society which, while
demonising as 'racist' anyone who dares to discuss
BLACK
CRIME
-actually ignores the growing mayhem within black communities - because
of the shameful and unstated belief that while it's only black people
who are committing violence against other black people, there's no
reason for anyone else to bother about it.
Such
an attitude is as short-sighted as it is terrible. It is terrible
because the lives of black people are as vulnerable as those of anyone
else. It is terrible because this racism leads directly to the
killing and abandonment of human beings under the camouflage of
progressive attitudes.
Gangs
It is
terrible because it is mainly white drug users who are being supplied by
these black gangs. And it is short-sighted because this mayhem is
spreading well beyond the black population.
Across the Atlantic, they've already been there and done all that
- denial of the impact of
MASS
FATHERLESSNESS
HELPLESSNESS
-in
the face of
DRUG CULTURE
ANTI-RACIST PARALYSIS
-and
come out the other side.
Communities previously written off as shattered beyond repair
HAVE TURNED THEMSELVES
ROUND.
THE KEY
was when BLACK PEOPLE realised the MAIN VICTIMS of all this were THEIR
OWN
YOUNG MEN.
-who
were dying at the hands of other black men, and decided that this
carnage had to stop.
So they
started to take responsibility for their
OWN
COMMUNITY.
In
[USA] Boston, the poorest areas of Dorchester and neighbouring Roxbury
were, until 1992 a
WAR ZONE.
There
were gun battles between school-children, knife fights on buses, drive
by shootings.
NOW
THESE
STREETS ARE SAFE TO WALK AND CRIME IS DOWN.
This
was achieved by
BLACK
PASTORS
-leaving their church pulpits to patrol the streets and pull in errant
young for correction -drug treatment and other measures.
CRUCIALLY THEY DID NOT
ACT ALONE.
-They
went out on patrol with police officers pursuing a
ZERO TOLERANCE approach
to CRIME
-and
probation officers who abandoned both their desks and their
'FRIEND OF THE
CRIMINAL'
APPROACH
-in
order to pick up youths who were in breach of their
PROBATION ORDERS
-and
threaten them with
PRISON
-if
they didn't meet stringent conditions for
STAYING OUT OF TROUBLE.
*
IN BRITAIN, encouragingly, a
growing number of pastors from black churches are trying to do the same.
The problem is the absence of appropriate support for them.
Unlike America, we do
not have
ZERO
TOLERANCE
of
CRIME
and DRUGS
-but
policies which promote them.
Unlike America, our POLICE and
PROBATION OFFICERS are still PARALYSED by POLITICAL CORRECTNESS -HUMAN
RIGHTS LAW
-and
the perception that the
CRIMINAL is the VICTIM of SOCIETY.
The
belief that authority is a dirty word means there is no recognition of
the crucial fact that the more shattered a child's background, the more
urgent is his need for the
STRONGEST POSSIBLE BOUNDARIES AND CLEAR SANCTIONS IF THEY ARE
TRANSGRESSED.
*
Discipline
Those
who do grasp this achieve stunning results. In East London, the Eastside
Young Leaders' Academy transforms black boys from jail fodder into model
pupils. It does this through the tough love of uncompromising discipline
- am essential antidote to schools where mistakes are never corrected
and misdemeanours indulged, and families where the fathers who have
fulfilled such a role are universally
ABSENT.
SO
THIS PROBLEM IS NOT HOPELESS.
It
can be turned around by a tough-minded, no-nonsense attitude to personal
and social responsibility. What is hopeless is the MORAL MUDDLE of
a SOCIETY whose antipathy to authority has reached such a pitch that
tough discipline is said to infringe a child's 'human rights'
A
SOCIETY which believes that locking up large numbers of young criminals
is worse than allowing them to continue to terrorise the streets.
A
SOCIETY which places freedom of expression higher than stopping gangsta
rap messages promoting violence, murder and bigotry as 'cool'
A
SOCIETY whose rich, white cocaine habit is serviced by a sordid and
violent drug culture, the truth of whose existence that same white
society is at
pains
to sanitise and censor.
SUCH
A SOCIETY PRODUCES DEAD CHILDREN
IT NEED NOT BE SO
ALL
THAT IS NEEDED IS THE WILL TO CHANGE
IT IS
THE ABSENCE OF THAT WILL THAT IS TRULY
CRIMINAL
