I think violent cultures like American gang culture has a really negative impact on its participants and proximal peoples.

Even though manipulation is rife in America's Western-culture, and let's be honest manupluation is rife in most of our world, I think our standards of freedom are the best systemically established standards in modern times! American #CommonLaw allows #logos, reason to reign supreme in affairs between sovereign individuals, and I would not trade it for any other system!

Please correct me if you disagree
