Three shootings in 8 hours. Eight wounded. Some tourists say they won’t be back.

The truth is not racist. Quit groveling before the race card. your racist denial makes you the racist here. Try judging people by the content of their character. Not by the color of their skin.

The epic violent crime rate of young black males is well documented. They make up about 4 percent of the population yet have committed over 40 percent of the murders, nationwide for the last 30 years.

Try to keep up.

>> Racism isn’t welcome in this community. You don’t like it? TOUGH!

Hurling accusations of “racism” is a tactic used by bigots who have run out of defensible arguments and think that this ill-used word will cause their adversaries to run for cover. Doesn’t always work that way. You don’t like it? TOUGH!

You are the one making broad racist statements, not me.

There are a great number of blacks that contribute greatly and bless this country. They are in no sense a black plague. Your remarks are unhelpful in the need to bring those blacks into conservatism.

Try to keep up.

“I’m not so sure about that....”

Crime is allowed and encouraged because there is money in it. Take away the money (welfare) and away go the lawyers, the lawmakers, the police, the social workers, etc. When there is no more money, protecting yourself won’t be seen as taking the food out of the mouths of the lawyers and police. The whole government distribution welfare economy will vanish, including the enablers.

The highest crime in my area is the strip mall where welfare checks are cashed. Coincidence?

I understand your point, but if they’re criminals, why wouldn’t they have some money FROM crime?

“The highest crime in my area is the strip mall where welfare checks are cashed. Coincidence?”

No, but that shows they are criminals not that making welfare disappear will make them non-criminals.

>>Actually, this forum explicitly does NOT allow racist posts. It’s particularly disgusting when some try to be sneaky about it and then mock those who confront it. Good way to get zotted.

I am aware of this, and you should be careful not to do it. Actually I’ve noticed that often those who “confront” it are themselves guilty of that horrendous crime.

This is the reason Lincoln is buried in a steel cage under 3 tons of concrete.

Nobody can dig him up and shoot him again.

Most crime is against criminals, and the “law abiding” who cater to the culture — the check cashers, pawn shops, etc.

Without the MASSIVE investment by the government, in the form of welfare, the entire criminal culture would atrophy and die. Criminals who prey on you and me would not be protected by the welfare digesting bureaucracy, and would fade away.

Obviously the process would not be absolutely effective, but it would leave only a trace of the crime there is now.

Whew! Well, I'm sure glad I didn't hurl any accusations, then!

But if the shoe fits...

If you really want to avoid the riff raff.... head further south to Avon. Rented a place on the sound side there for a week, years ago. The most beautiful sunsets you can imagine over the sound.

Referring to the epic black crime rate as a “plague” is hardly racist. I bet many black homeowners and business owners who are the most frequent victims of black on black crime would agree. According to the CDC the greatest cause of premature death in young black males is being murdered by other black males. Sounds like a plague to me.

Your charge that I am equating the blacks who are solid citizens with street thugs is a classic “How could you say that about a black man?” fallacy. You need to start judging people by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.

Mecca is another word that has been hijacked by special interests groups.
