Rouge elephants and young males

I was reading a few years ago about a problem concerning young rouge elephants.  It seams that because of over population, dough, or just poor planning.  One of the African countries with several large game reserve, decided to move a number of elephants from one reserve to and other.  Apparently, without a great deal of forethought or planning.  I am sure this effort was undertaken with the best of intentions.  If this is starting to sound like a government you know, raise your hand.

Anyway, as central planning usually goes, remember the old Soviet Union?  Well it wasn't long until things started to go, shall we say "south in a hurry". As Jim Nabor's on the Andy Griffin show, used to say" surprise, surprise".   The problem it seems was and abundance of teenage male elephants, without adult supervision. They  were running around harassing the female and baby elephants plus the rhinos.

What to do? The solution was, as in most issues of this type.  Look what has worked in the past.  Like for thousands of years, God's laws through nature work.  With the introduction into the herd of some old bulls, within a short period of time. Viola, problem solved.  Why can't we in the USA, or for that matter Europe, provide adult male leadership to young men before they reach the point where there only alternative is the streets and or prison?

Please don't ascribe this analogy to any particular race or ethnicity. I will not be bullied or silenced by the PC police.  If the shoe fits?

Remember, God only gives us a certain number of days. I don't plan on wasting the ones I have left.

Until we talk again.
