The Truth

BY: DR. FOREST LEWIS

As a young child growing up in Brooklyn, New York, I can recall the fear that gripped my heart every time I had to venture outside of our small apartment!

It was the late 1950's, and we were living in Brooklyn's notorious, Bedford Styvesant section. It was during this time that gangs with such names as the, "Imperial Lords, Corsairs, Fort Greene Chaplains, Bishops, Diplomats, Baldees, Stompers, Demons and the Buccaneers, were terrorizing their respective areas.

I recall the "Chaplains" had "Satellite Groups" throughout Brooklyn. Their numbers were in the hundreds. Each year, they would "Recruit New Members." If you didn't want to join their gang, tough, they kicked your ass and made you join anyway. If you didn't "Report For Duty," you could end up losing your life. No, these were not the "Bowery Boys" type of gangs. These were killers. In fact, I omitted the name of another gang, which went by the moniker of the "Stone Killers." Their name is self-explanatory!

These Black gangs were the original forerunners of the gangs that we see today. Oftentimes, many Americans believe that the gangs of today, simply just sprang up out of nowhere. Black inner city gangs have been a part of the American landscape for more than a half a century. The difference between the gangs that I have mentioned and the ones today is that during my time as a youth, "gangstas" were either killed during a "Rumble," or they ended up in jail for life: Or if they were lucky, they got out of the gang and became productive citizens.

The gangs that we are seeing today are "Grown Men," who act like they are fourteen or fifteen years old. Many of these punks are in their mid-thirties.  They will never amount to anything, because they are sociopaths. I have discussed the subject of sociopathy in previous columns. Therefore, I will not repeat myself on this subject. If you wish more information on sociopathy, please consult some of my previous body of work.

Much to my surprise, the police here in my city of Rochester, New York, have been taken off of their "Short Leash" by our "Do Nothing Mayor, who acts like he is still the Police Chief! The defacto police chief is merely a "Figure Head." Since the vicious murders of two of our citizens, the police have gone after the "Savages here, with a vengeance. The question is, what took them so long?

Rochester Mayor, Robert Duffy has ordered the police to enforce "All Laws," felonies and "Minor Violations." His strategy is simple. Duffy is seeking to establish a "Beach-head." For those of you, from south of the border, a beachhead is a military term. In simple language, the purpose of a beachhead is to secure a position in enemy terrority: Said beachhead can be used for additional advancement, whenever those with this new real estate, decide to move forward. The savages have been thrown off guard. They don't know what's coming down the pike next. This much is known, their reign of terror will no longer be tolerated!

The Mayor instituted, "Zero Tolerance," last Friday. Anyone in violation of the law is taken into custody. So far, more than 100 "Animals" have been arrested since the start of zero tolerance. Authorities report they have seized illegal guns, stolen cars, cleared more than 500 savages from street corners, and raided 229 suspected drug locations. If some of you are having a difficult time with my use of the word "Savage," consider what happened to police officer, Robert Henkes. The officer responded to a complaint, and when he ordered several men to disperse, convicted felon, John Howard, gave the officer some grief. When the cop attempted to arrest this savage, he punched the officer in the face. Any more questions on my use of the word savage? Our inner cities are jungles: And those who act like animals will be given the name, "Savage."

This Howard character is something else. He was released from prison two years ago, after serving a fifteen year stretch for burglary and third degree grand larceny. He broke into the home of 89-year old Joanna Metz on April 13, 1990.  This poor woman suffered a fatal heart attack during the break-in. Like I said, John Howard is a "Savage." Apparently, prison did nothing to change this animal. Hopefully with these new charges, resisting arrest and disorderly conduct, Howard will be taken off the street once again--and sent back to a place where he can be "Contained."  By the way, the officer was taken to a local hospital where he was treated for "Severe Bruising." Think about this for a moment. If these "Savages" aren't afraid of the police, you know that a civilian will be viewed as, "Food."

The "Zero Tolerance Operation" has some officers working twelve hour shifts. The head of the police union, no friend of the Mayor's, told officers that "Fighting crime is in your hands."

Many city residents feel like a load has been lifted off of them. People like, Mary Coffee who said:

"We are taking this city back(FROM THE SAVAGES). Judges need to support this initiative as well by handing out tougher sentences"

In my reports on "Satan's Savages" here in Rochester, I was remiss in not telling you about a decent soul by the name of James Slater. Mr. Slater had just attended a rally to protest the savage slaying of Latasha Shaw. He was only a few steps from his door, when he was confronted by a "Savage." His sister said she heard shouting, and next, the sound of three gunshots. James Slater lay on the ground, himself now the victim of a savage murder. Police say they think he was resisting a hold up, when the coward shot this church going man three times in the chest. Slater's minister was quoted as saying, "I Give Up." 

I disagree. Now is not the time to quit. Now is the time for the good people of this city to "Legally" arm themselves, and help the police eradicate "Satan's Savages."

The heretofore ineffectual police chief was crying about the cost of police working overtime. His whining really pissed me off. America's inner cities are under siege, like Baghdad, Iraq. Some statistics point to more than "Ten-Thousand People Dying Each Year In Our Urban Areas." Contrast that with the number of people killed in Iraq during the past five years, the numbers pale in comparison.

If we can find money to fight the IslamoFascists, we can damn sure find enough money to fight and kill, or lock up "Satan's Savages--For A Long Time."
