LaBron James and Kobe Bryant and Victor Cruz, Pee-Diddy or whatever his name is, JZ, ?fitty cents?, Pitbull, SnoopDog, Chris Brown, a slew of NFL/NBA/MLB players all make zillions of dollars. Why don't they march into urban Chicago TOGETHER regularly and pay those gang children to work on some projects cleaning up the buildings where older folks and single mothers with children live in filth? Those multimillionaires can never spend all of their money and they could help create jobs and do something to help stop that daily murdering. No, they don hoodies and stand in a spotlight before a game and Tweet and create tax shelter foundations but until they get in there on the streets and inspire some kids themselves, what real good are they to their own kind living in hopelessness and dying in the streets?
