Wow. That's pretty much a huge judgment on one of today's popular culture. Listening to rap music, failing school, wearing jewelry, and wearing baggy clothes doesn't make someone a criminal. Those qualities really don't deserve to be put in the same category as "beating on little kids" and "doing drugs." I work with kids who are a part of that culture, innocent kids who are human beings just like you and me. They laugh, they cry, they have dreams. It kind of hurts me that you've basically said that they're criminals just because they're apparently not of the same culture as you.
Also, just curious: if you saw a white person doing all of that, would you think they were thugs also?
