Those affected should grow up?

It's very similar to the issue I have with many reservation bound American Indians.

They lament their lives there with poverty rampant, crime, drugs, violence, et al, but they won't leave because -- somehow -- they have developed a sort of Stockholm Syndrome from a prior oppressor mandating that anything less is "non-traditional" or "progressive."

Like many in other cultures, they have assimilated the values of a social power which no longer forces them to live, act or believe in this manner without their tacit approval.

And they give it.

That's not -- and this goes for MANY minorities - the fault of the white man, it's internal.

"Still going on?"

That's because it's how the animals want to live. Humans would get a job...
