Thank you for the Truth, JEB. This is life in the United States of America.

PS: I have visited Camden, New Jersey. Friends of mine moved there and I had the opportunity for an extended stay in 1975. Great people living in a wonderful town, a culturally and economically diverse place. Those images show just how much the community has changed since then.
