Another day in the life in Chiraq

so why aren't white people being gunned down every five minutes?

Even been to the areas of the South where groups like biker gangs and the Aryan Nations fight over profits from meth?
 
Also remember the Ex-Mayor Rudy Giuliani, did a wonderful job at reducing crime in New York. Looking at it today, the current Mayor Andrew Cuomo with the retirement home deaths and impending impeachment maybe possible.
Well...Governor Cuomo...but Mayor de Blasio is presiding over a crime explosion AND a failed bail system in NYC...
  • Since Jan. 1, 482 suspects busted for serious felonies were released without bail only to commit another 846 new crimes. Over a third were arrested for one of the seven most serious crimes: murder, rape, robbery, felony assault, burglary, grand larceny and grand larceny auto.
  • As if speaking directly to Heastie and his pro-crime caucus, Shea said, “Each number represents a victim.”
  • In addition, more than 11 percent of felony arrests didn’t go forward because district attorneys declined to prosecute, a rise of 34 percent from the same period last year. That’s almost certainly a result of another “reform” passed in the no-bail law, which drastically increases DAs’ workload for simply charging a suspect.
  • Crime in January jumped 30 percent from January 2019. Crime in February spiked 20 percent over last year. In all, the first two months of 2020 saw 803 more serious crimes committed than Jan.-Feb. 2019.
 
Sorry...the legalization of marijuana has proven that the thought that legalization will end drug related gang violence. Its hasnt...the illegal marijuana trade is just as bad now as it has always been...even in the cities where it has been legalized.

Look...this requires a holistic and realistic approach if the problem is ever going to be solved...BUT the model for successful black American families is already in place...and its found IN the black American community....just not the black American community that lives in the rat infested democrat run shitholes.

Black American families in rural communities are thriving at rates comparable to white families. Those families teach their kids the importance of education, of future planning, of avoiding teen pregnancy, of self responsibility. FFS it should be CELEBRATED that so many black American families are thriving. We should be doing our best to emulate that for ALL families...not just black American families.Instead people lie and say it cant be done...that it isnt happening.

In the inner cities, there was a concerted effort to bring minorities together in one place and then to kill off the middle income manufacturing jobs. White Americans and black Americans that could afford it got the **** out of Dodge as fast as possible but the black Americans that stayed have been devastated. The welfare policies promoted by the left rewarded teen pregnancy and unwed motherhood. Young black men dont turn to crime because they are bad people or weak or incapable but because in those communiteis that often is LITERALLY the only thing they know. Stay in school...for what? To MAYBE be able to compete for that McDonalds job?

There has to be a MAJOR change in the approach to fixing the problems in the black American inner cities and that WILL NOT HAPPEN you have a bunch of race baiting charlatans and piece iof shit rat politicans making sure the community is oppressed and continues to vote for their oppressors.

Because only legalizing marijuana is basically the equivalent of if they’d only legalized the weakest possible beer during Prohibition. If they had done only that, we would still have gangs fighting each other over illegal whiskey in every city in America.
 
Lol, Jacksonville, Fla is your shining example of a "big city" run by Republicans? With not even a million people? It's also riddled with crime, far higher than the Florida and national average:



This was supposed to be your example of a Republican run city where violent crime was eliminated, yet that doesn't seem to be the case at all!
🤣
Easy...it takes a little bit of time to fix what 114 years of rat party governing has created. Its getting better...and the city is leading in economic change as well

Jacksonville has seen the job market increase by 2.8% over the last year. Future job growth over the next ten years is predicted to be 44.4%, which is higher than the US average of 33.5%.


So yes...J-ville is a great example of the positive changes that can come when idiot leftists stop putting in piece of shit rat party politiicans with their devastating policies.

You know...YOUR people.

The crime problems have been the same with legalized marijuana as with other illegal drugs. You have to stop being the type of libertarian that thinks things that will ensure the Libertarian party will NEVER have significant elected representation.

The solution to crime and poverty is not legalized drugs. Seriously...what are you even thinking? Are you thinking that all the criminals that are currently engaged in the illegal drug trade as a means of cash will just become good little compliant citizens if you take away drug cash flow?

Where did I say it would solve poverty? The gangs in Chicago and elsewhere fight primarily over the profits from illegal drugs. So long as those profits exists, the violence will remain. The best you could ever achieve is to shift it to another city.

Short of creating an authoritarian police state, you aren’t going to stop gangs violence so long as the incentive for that violence remains.
 
2 dead, 13 injured after shooter opens fire at Chicago party

Two people are dead and several more injured after a gunman opened fire at a party on Chicago's South Side, according to police.


But seriously...its just another day in the life in what is tragically NOT the most deadly city in America.


Perhaps the most tragically comical part of the story is found at the very end....

"Brown also reminded Chicago residents to continue to adhere to social distancing guidelines amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
"Nothing has changed, Brown said. "You're jumping the gun if you think it's okay to be in small, closed confinements.""

So don't forget folks...social distancing...and don't forget to wear those masks!

Why is chicago important to any of this? And does covid no longer exist in places where there is high crime? Does infectious disease read crime stats?
 
And Mayor LightFootInMouth won't be able to blame this on Trump.

No they dont and this latest shooting had **** all to do with drugs.

You WILL reduce gang violence when you create an environment where people dont feel so desperate that they have to turn to a gang lifestyle to survive. Black Americans are not some lower level thinking group of animals that know no better than gangs and gang violence. They are doing the exact same thing that white gangs like the Hudson Dusters did back before even the turn of the 20th century.

Lol, I asked for ONE example, and you give me a city that maybe someday might not be a crime-ridden shithole if Republicans can stay in power long enough. :rolleyes:

Considering capitalism requires “losers” as well as “winners” how will you ever eliminate the desperation of poverty under a capitalist system?
 
Shall I post pics of the women gunned down by their husbands/ exes/ boyfriends in the last week (from all over the country)?

Or should I just do the South?
How about you just reply to the topic rather than post your usual mindless whataboutisms.

And I asked you what policies republicans support 'that keep large swathes of America in abject, brutal poverty and heavily armed.' And all I got in response was 'crickets.' If you like, you can just admit what we already know--that you were just spouting your typical bull****--and we can just move on.
 
See? Vance just showed how much he cares about poor black people. With another spittle-flecked rant attacking the people he always attacks with the lies he always uses to attack them. Because, when you care about something, you don't honestly assess the swarm of causes of a problem, at least in Vanceworld.


Deflecting from his point, which is true does not bode well for your response:



This blueprint for disaster has been recently seen by all very clearly in the response to the Covid virus. His point clearly stands on its own.
 
It's interesting that you can complain about this while supporting policies that keep large swathes of America in abject, brutal poverty and heavily armed.
If only they put some Democrats in charge in Chicago. Things would be so much better.

GOP has taken an ax to as many infrastructure/community programs as possible. They crush the working poor with gigantic tax cuts for the top o fth efood chain which takes even more money out of local budgets. They advance racist voter suppression bills to keep majority Black areas under represented. We just conducted a pristine election according to multiple bipartisan avenues and the GOP is pushing for even more legislation because we also had waaaaay too many Black folks voting.

Man o man the GOP sucks when it comes to Black folks.

It's easy to blame Democrats for the problems in all of America's big cities, when there are no Republican controlled big cities. Show us that you can run a big city better. Vance tried and failed with Jacksonville, Fla, maybe you know one.

That's because you've historically shown me you're not worth engaging. I'll respond to everyone else instead.

Lol. Thats just really, really stupid. Chicago hasnt had a republican mayor since 1931. I guess it was 'voter suppression' that kept the blacks who live there from voting republican 😂 Chicago has a democrat mayor, a democrat city council, two democratic US Senators, a democrat governor and we now have a democrat president but its all republicans fault. 😂 Good one!

Hogwash. There is no requirment for losers in capitalism. There is the unfortunate reality that there ARE losers...but there are losers in EVERY system. The culprit is not the system but the person that stares down the loser from the mirror every morning.

🤣
I gave you an example of a city that is digging out from the shit created by 12 decades of rat party rule.

Meanwhile...you continue to try to divert and to ignore the reality that every major city in the country RUN by the rat party you support has had their minority communities turned into shitholes. Your pathetic impotent surrender to the facts does not go unnoticed.
 
We're just talking about Chicago.
But you see his tactic...he does NOT WANT to talk about Chicago...or the fact that the rats he supports have been in control of Chicago since 1937.
