Guns, violence and the island
« on: January 16, 2013, 07:15:14 AM »
I find myself confused by the primitives a great deal lately.    Here we have ridiculous comments made over domestic violence that involved a firearm on a school campus.

Gangs - you know the disenfranchised urban youths they like to defend ad nauseum, use guns to threaten, maim and kill pretty much daily.   Yet we get no threads on that topic. 

Why is that?

They ignore that sort of violence because it doesn't fit in with their worldview.  They think if they ignore it it won't be true and will go away.  If they do make a post about it there are tons of excuses for why it happens.  It's always the fault of someone besides the perpetrator/s.

Since they view themselves as victims of society and the wealthy they consider the urban scum to be comrades in arms.

That's because disenfranchised urban youths threaten, maim, and kill other disenfranchised urban youths, almost exclusively.

Even DUmpmonkeys can see that's not a bad thing.

Most of the DUmmies believe that gang violence is a result of poverty, poor educational and employment opportunities.  If only more money were thrown at those problems then gang violence would go away.

They ignore the fact that gang life offers and easier way to riches without working for it.  They also ignore the fact that the gang problem greatly escalated after the war on poverty began.

Welcome to a fundamentally changed America of men and not laws.

Dark skin color trumps laws.
Perverted sexuality trumps laws.
One particularly vile religion trumps laws.

Yeah but isn't mental illness the reason for these mass shootings?  It's not the guns.  It's the shooter (and their environment, etc.)  - the same reasoning they use for the gang member.

If you're not confused by the Primitives, you haven't properly understood them.

They also ignore the fact that is in predominatly black communities, and they ignore it because they want to keep them on the liberal plantation.  Anyone who runs from the plantation is called names, IE Oreo, Black Uncle Tom, etc...
