Of Bikers and Thugs
Does the violence in Waco say something universal about white culture or Hispanic culture? Even the question sounds ridiculous — and yet we don’t hesitate to ask such questions around black violence, and to answer it, in the affirmative. And invariably, the single-mother, absent-father trope is dragged out.
But a father in the home is no guarantor against violence. By the way, is anyone asking about the family makeup of the bikers in Waco?
No? Exactly.
