Slick,
got the All-Day-Ticket on Direct TV. That was a funny movie.

Muchos,
Ghetto just means cheap housing to me. My family made it out of the ghetto. So did countelss others. America is built on immigration, and over the past 100 years the ghetto has been made up of many different nationalities. Not just blacks.
Now, the ghetto's I worked in in Newark and NY were complete shitholes. Filled with lawless scumbags terrorising the other residents. I've seen shoot outs, robberies, turf wars, junkies, hookers, and any other freaky fucked up shit you can think of. I've also worked with guys who got themselves, and their families out of the ghetto. It's not impossible, if you work hard and try. Nobody gives you a break in life, you have to make your own.

I won't go into socialism vs capitalism vs communism. Politics is a topic, along with religion, that is best left alone.

I don't know where you grew up, but I grew up alongside some real scumbags. I know people who have gone to prison, who have bounced in and out. Former friends, brothers of my friends, etc. Just from going from my own life, I can say these assholes never got their shit together, and just continued to hurt people. First time offender? You mean first time the loser got his dumb ass busted. Don't be nieve. These aren't choir boys, just because they got busted for a non-violent crime. The rap sheet doesn't tell the whole story.
