My days spent as a "Freakish Hippie"; and then a biker; in the 60's and early 70's came back to me with haunting familiarity as I read this post. I faced imminent peril and even death on my exploits and hardly ever considered the consequences of my actions until I reached an "age of enlightenment" some years later. Today's "yutes" would do well to learn from our mistakes in decades past...though I doubt many will.
My Heroes of That Age..."The Chicago Seven"
When I was a punk teen and twenty-something, I did drugs, dealt drugs, debased women, burglarized homes and was kicked out of both high school and college for my behavior.
When I was sixteen-years-old, I was arrested on Mother’s Day for stealing water skis and was placed on probation.
I was not an “innocent teen, full of potential.” I was full of something all right, but it wasn’t potential. I was a piece of teenage, criminal crap. I chose to break the law. I chose alcohol and drug use and abuse. I chose to be an idiot and to emulate fools. I chose to disappoint my family, my country and my God. I was hell on two skinny legs and I had no one to blame but myself.
During that near decade of decadence, I’m glad I didn’t die or get killed in that state because I would have gone straight to hell. Yes, call me weird, but I believe in a literal heaven and a literal hell and I would have been on the elevator going down to the bottom floor, to spend eternity between the second, fifth and seventh concentric circles of Dante’s Inferno.
During my time of gleefully following el Diablo’s lead, I shot at people and had guns drawn on me. One summer night back in 1978, my buddies and I were ripping off a boat and were busted red-handed by the home owner who pulled out a pump shotgun, racked a round, but was unable to get off a shot because the direction in which I ran blocked his sight picture and I was able to get away.
If I would have been shot and killed that evening it would have sucked, but would have been a just punishment because my life choices put me in a direct path of destruction.

Amazing how the Left REFUSES to address the real problems facing many Black Americans. It is all about RAAAAACISM to them. Lemon, to his credit at least tries to lay the responsibility at the feet of the “Black community” and rap, saggy pants, the horrid out of wedlock birth rate. And, of course, Leftists cannot allow that, they can’t let an opportunity to blame racism.
