Florida Woman Arrested After Hundreds Of Bugs Crawl Out Of Child’s Backpack!





As the 2040's approach increasingly closer, another Florida woman was arrested last week after her daughter's school found "hundreds of bugs" in the girl's backpack, prompting the Florida Department of Children and Families to visit their home.

Just FYI: Feminists in Russia are very angry, because they have no rules equal to men. If a man commits some extremely outstanding crime, he gets a high penalty - a lifetime in prison. If a woman commits the same crime, she can get only up to 25 years in jail (in fact this means 12.5 years + probation). A lifetime sentence can not be applied to a woman in Russia.

Your girl up there facing 25 years for actual neglect and your weird ass makes up an entire lie about the dad just to try to find a way to blame black people for where your kind is today.

You people never take responsibility for your failures.

I saw her interview yesterday. There was no furniture other than a few tables and broken chairs. She claimed that they just moved in and the cockroaches were there already. They were crawling around the apartment which was dirty.

She spoke well, seemed to care about her five kids and offered no excuse for the cockroaches.

The kids weren’t shown so I don’t know or care about the color of the father

LORAIN, OH (WOIO) - Police in Lorain have arrested a mother after her eight children were found living in a "disgusting" home. The children were smeared with feces and living in a home infested with bedbugs and covered with mold.
According to police, Quinn Washington, 33, was arrested on child endangerment charges on Monday when officers responded to a home in the 800 block of West 18th Street after a maintenance worker, who just finished working on the home next door, told a neighbor the house was "disgusting" so the neighbor called police.
When police arrived, they found eight children living in deplorable conditions. Police say the children were going to the bathroom on the floor. Some kids were found in dirty diapers while others were covered in feces. One young child was found in a closet wearing a diaper that stretched past his knees because it was full of feces.
The house was infested with bedbugs and smelled like rotten milk, according to police. There was also mold covering parts of the home, including inside the refrigerator. Bags of trash were thrown across the living room and kitchen spaces.

All of the children were being supervised by their 13-year-old sister, according to Lorain police, while their mother was at work.
Washington was arrested at home when she returned from work. She was taken to Lorain city jail.
The children have been taken into custody by Children Services.

Yeah but the thing is the teacher who reported her said her kid was wearing the same set if clothes for a week in the clothes had caked-on feces and dirt

At least the mother was lucid on TV and motivated cleaning her place etc. She did not it all seemed like a drug user or anything else she just seems overwhelmed which is the reason most people don't have so many children on limited income... it's difficult.

Five kids and no partner would make anyone feel overwhelmed. She didn’t speak like Welfare trash and she sounded educated. The kids weren’t clean and her empty apartment looked like a refuge for homeless people. No beds or mattresses, no curtains, no furniture that looked like it was from the last two decades.

I felt bad for her and her kids but wondered about the father(s). Does she get any support money or does she have a man to help her?

She was white with bleached hair which costs money. Usually the media focuses on black women only. It was almost like “here is an educated white woman with five kids and cockroaches surrounded them” as if that’s an anomaly in the USA. Poverty isn’t ethnic.

Oh, duh, I just saw the story above. I’d seen it online but didn’t realize it was posted here. She looks like hell with bags under her eyes. Her appearance is poor white trash and the apartment doesn’t help. Yet her manner of speaking shows proper upbringing and she is horrified by her living conditions.

Looks are deceiving.

I’m hoping that someone gets after the landlord to decontaminate the apartment and determine the source. Then social workers need to visit and teach her about dirty clothes, diseases, rancid food and general cleanliness.

Bugs are no excuse not to keep clean and toss old milk and food.

Funny part is her bedroom was fully furnished with luxuries and clean as a whistle.

That's the part that removes any sympathy...

Paul, Slavery made them do it. Oh and Jim Crow and redlining, too.

And the truth is it wasn't always that way. if you go back to the 40s, 50s and 60s they were on par with whites in respect to illegitimacy rates. It's when the Dems came in with all the welfare basically enslaving them and convincing them the state could take the place of the father is when shit really went south for them. Back in the 40s and 50s when they starting keeping track of crime rates, blacks were committing crimes at 3-4xs the rate of whites, which isn't good, but it's a far cry from the 12-15xs rate they are now.

One of the teachers out in the area my live in told me that 2 of her young students were high on meth in class

Turns out the parents didn't have any money for food so they gave the kids meth so they would not be hungry.

Yep! It used to just be about banging the drums of class warfare for the Left. Now they've moved on to demanding division, not healing and openly pushing their hate and racism

Sowell is always on point.


Quote:
A second determinant of economic success is culture, by which Sowell means customs, values, norms and attitudes. For him, the proof of culture’s importance is to be found in the experience of minority groups, in various countries, that have achieved extraordinary economic success: Germans in Eastern Europe, Lebanese in West Africa, Japanese in Peru, Chinese in other parts of Asia, Jews and Indians everywhere. These immigrant groups arrive with a taste for entrepreneurship, a focus on education, a commitment to family, a reputation for honest dealing and an instinct for hard work. They also have high levels of trust and cooperation among themselves. Successful countries have learned to incorporate these cultural traits into their own, in contrast to “lagging” ones that envy and resent these minorities and concoct grievances against them to explain their own lack of success.

So far, so good. But it’s when Sowell adopts these historical lessons as the only explanation you need to understand inequality of incomes and opportunities in 21st-century America that he reveals how little he’s learned in the past 20 years.

Culture matters, of course, and Sowell has been courageous in calling attention to the growing acceptance of a black “ghetto culture” that has rejected traditional values. Dressing neatly, speaking proper English, achieving academic success, raising children in the context of stable marriages — by the 1970s, Sowell argues, these were demeaned as “acting white,” setting back the economic prospects of a generation of African Americans after decades of advances.

“None of the usual explanations of racial disparities — genetics, racism, poverty or ‘legacy of slavery’ — can explain this retrogression over time,” he writes. “One of the few possibilities left is that the culture within black communities has in some respect changed for the worse over the years.” And what is Sowell’s proof of this “retrogression”? That elite high schools such as Stuyvesant no longer boast as many black students as they used to.

In fact, while “ghetto culture” may help to explain the stubborn persistence of a black underclass, there is ample evidence of the progress of black Americans since the 1960s in statistics on poverty rates, educational achievement and household incomes. Gains relative to whites have slowed, but there are still absolute gains. Nor can “ghetto culture” explain the growth in poverty, the decline in marriage, the slowdown in educational achievement or the widening income gap in white America.

As Sowell sees it, this “retrogression” took root because of a virulent multiculturalism, imposed by academics and the media, that now makes it socially and politically unacceptable to criticize any group’s culture. And it is reinforced by an overly generous welfare state that has lulled poor blacks into a permanent state of dependency and sloth — “non-judgmental subsidies of counterproductive behavior,” in his felicitous phrasing.
