WE NEED ZERO TOLERANCE OF CRIME
- WE HAVE POLICE AND PROBATION OFFICERS PARALYSED BY POLITICAL
CORRECTNESS WITH THE CRIMINAL AS THE VICTIM.

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
