America has developed a dangerous habit of ignoring serious problems if talking about them might create political discomfort. One of the clearest examples is the rise of “teen takeovers” happening in cities across the country. Large groups of black teenagers flooding malls, beaches, gas stations, and downtown areas have led to fights, vandalism, assaults, theft, and complete chaos in communities that used to feel safe for ordinary families.
Most Americans can see it happening with their own eyes through viral videos online, yet politicians and media outlets often refuse to speak honestly about the issue. Instead of addressing the breakdown in discipline, parenting, public safety, and accountability across the “black community”, they hide behind carefully crafted language because they are terrified of being attacked politically or accused of racism.
Americans are scared to say obvious things out loud. Citizens are expected to ignore reality while businesses suffer, police are demonized, and families no longer feel comfortable going out at night in many areas.
This debate is not about hatred. It is about honesty. If certain communities are experiencing higher levels of youth violence, intimidation, or disorder, leaders should be willing to ask why. They should be willing to discuss broken homes, failing schools, social media culture, lack of consequences, anti-police rhetoric, and the complete collapse of accountability that has infected parts of black American society.
Instead, many politicians act like silence is leadership. It is not. Silence is cowardice.
That is why figures like James Fishback are gaining attention. Americans are exhausted by leaders who speak in circles and pretend every issue can be solved with slogans. Fishback is willing to acknowledge that public safety matters and that communities cannot survive when destructive behavior is excused or ignored out of political fear of being labeled a racist.

The truth is simple: civilization depends on standards. It depends on consequences. It depends on adults being willing to tell young people “no.” When leaders refuse to confront bad behavior because they are afraid of backlash, society slowly falls apart.
As Christians, we should love every person equally, regardless of race or background. But love also includes accountability. Excusing destructive behavior helps nobody — especially the young people destroying their own futures.
Americans are not asking for hatred or division. They are asking for honesty, law and order, and leaders with enough courage to put public safety ahead of political correctness.
At some point, the fear of being criticized has to stop controlling national conversations. Because ignoring reality does not fix reality.

I agree, it’s something we should talk about. I don’t know where you live, but we don’t have that problem in New Orleans. Oir police responds immediately to such nuances.

Well said!! I completely agree! I see hundreds of comments of people recognizing it’s the same demographic in every city! Democrats love it because their dangerous rhetoric has taken root and Republicans are not going to risk saying anything critical ahead of the primaries! Our President is the only one who has spoken on it calling on governors to step up!! So all we can do right now is pray for revival while being armed and prepared to protect ourselves and our loved ones!!✝️🙏🇺🇸❤️

This is a very balanced post. I think the moral decline goes far beyond race and God is watching. When everyone is convinced satan’s alternative government demonstration creates destruction throughout our universe He will intervene and release those to a better world who honour Him and destroy sin and its adherents forever. Looking forward to that new world. Good to see you back posting 🙂

I agree that public safety, accountability, and responsible parenting are important issues that deserve honest discussion. At the same time, I think it’s important to be careful about attributing the actions of some individuals to an entire racial community. Problems like youth violence, vandalism, and disorder are real, but their causes are often complex and include family instability, poverty, education, social influences, and local policies.
We can discuss these challenges openly without resorting to broad generalizations about millions of people. Real solutions come from addressing root causes, enforcing laws fairly, supporting families, and creating opportunities for young people to succeed. Honest conversations are necessary, but they should be guided by facts, fairness, and a commitment to treating people as individuals rather than stereotypes.
By the way thank you for sharing your perspective and I appreciate discussions that encourage people to think about difficult issues rather than ignore them.

Very good writing. I don’t know what a photo of a beautiful girl has to do with the article, but as the Bible says, “The wicked flee when no man pursues, but the righteous are as bold as a lion.” We need bold writers in these last days.
