I bet you also KNOW that lots of black folk shoot other blacks and white folk but I bet you don't spout off about that do you? Why not? Why do you think the left wing outlets only mention the race of the shooter when they are white? Edited April 18, 2023 by Al Bundy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you think the left wing outlets only mention the race of the shooter when they are white? When criminals are allowed to take over take over the streets, and loot, burn and destroy at will, and politicians in charge refuse to condemn them. (see the Mayor's comments!) chaos will reign. Under those conditions, the law of the jungle, all manner of bad stuff can , will and does occur. I was living in Toronto during the Yonge Street riots in 1992. (see WIKI) It was race based, on some now arcane perception of injustice. I was living in mid-town at the time. The cops couldn't handle it. It started downtown and moved up to the Bloor Street high end shops, We were watching on TV and we could hear the noise, and the sirens, as it got closer to where we lived. TV advised everybody to stay indoors. My wife was scared stiff.. I took my old army cadet vintage Lee Enfield 308, loaded it up and said, in my best Van Heflin ( of"Shane") impersonation. "Let 'em come". As the cops pushed them further up Yonge they were in our neighborhood. And I'll be honest, if some of those rioters started banging on my door, I would have had no qualms in firing a couple of warning rounds at them, and if that didn't see them off, I would have blown them away. Something about protecting your life and liberty., I'd tell the Judge as they led me away to jail. You had to be there to understand the basic human emotions, that rise in such chaos. Most bleeding heart armchair lib/socialist commentators have never been in that situation. Late edit: Watch that old George Stevens morality play, "Shane". It's a Hollywood movie, and as such a little over dramatised, but It manages to deal with both sides of a societal impasse, lawlessness, and a the affected family and their communities differing responses to their conditions. The world in a teacup! Edited April 18, 2023 by trastrick 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This weekend alone there has been 38 shootings in Chicago. 4 killed in Alabama. But let's concentrate on a senile 85 year old white man who shot a black man. Can anyone give me a reason why CNN are showing rolling news on that story as opposed to the others? My opinion is that it's nothing more than trying to stir up racial hated. Anyone else have a view?

trastrick Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 (edited) Just more MSM "narrative"click bait that is flogged to their gullible great unsawhed! And the clapping seals buy it, lock stock and barrel! The reality? With a population five times the U.K., and the Left's anti- American/anti-Capitalist bias, they have a never ending choice of mayhem to feature.
