The next time The Gliberal celebrates a rapper, or some idiot learned dog with a Nobel pedigree arfs of hip-hop genius, we may want to ponder this line:
As gangsta rap celebrated the "thug life," University of Pennsylvania sociologist Elijah Anderson and others have documented the depressing rise of an "oppositional culture," in which elementary school children are looking up to dope dealers as role models. This in a story about Oakland, the city run by Fruits-and-Nuts Brown, and with a very high murder rate and lots of repeat crooks.
