Chet ... I don't know how you do it! My question to you is ... are you making a difference? Are you getting through to "them." I've counseled and mentored and have come to the conclusion that people are simply going to do what they want to do. It would be very easy to say that behavior is genetic not learned, but I don't believe that every African-America kid is born a murderer or gangsta. So many people don't understand the power of music and the danger of gangsta rap. I reckon I'm just rambling but I keep searching for answers and they don't seem to be forthcoming. I'm glad to meeting someone as outspoken as I ... my father says I have a problem with authority ... my response is that my problem is not with authority but with ignorance and stupidity and my deep, abiding impatience with anyone who thrives on intimidation. And about the women folksingers and the song about men being mass murderers ... what a load of crap! Well ... that's enough expounding for one night ... keep up the good work ... Jenny
