That sounds like the advice I always gave to my kids; "If you hang around with losers, you will become a loser like them!"

Fee, what an original thesis! (/sarc)

Even my grandmother knew, "Birds of a feather flock together." You need a PhD to figure this out?

The message is: pay no attention to city crime rates. You are reasonably safe in a Democrat ghetto if you don’t socialize much with all the HIV carriers, drug injectors, and thugs surrounding you in three dimensions. Just blame the victim for their poor taste in friends.

The things I’ve noticed that they have in common are two parent families, and extended families that love them, and work to raise them right.

You realize of course, you are totally, completely, 100% non PC, but I agree with you :-)

Lay a gun on the table. Walk away. Wait awhile. Notice that it never fires itself?

I wonder to what extent the decreasing murder rate is attributable to murderers being murdered.

“Papachristos says it makes sense to look at the spread of gun violence like the spread of a disease or an epidemic, comparing it to how people contract HIV.”

And, whenever the opportunity presents itself, we quarantine these disease carriers in prisons.

This is exactly why 30-round mags were invented—feral crowd control.

—yep—I often thought during the last Crips-Bloods “war” in Las Vegas that the next murder most likely “solved” the last one—

Remove black crime statistics from US crime statistics and we are as peaceful as Sweden.

As long as you remove crimes committed by Muslims in Sweden.

Here is a news flash from U.S. News & World Report via Yale University: if you habitually hang around with criminals, you are more likely to be shot or meet a violent end. Who would have guessed that?

I have a great new gun control plan!!!1!

Let's ban all gun possession from felons!!1111!!!

Elect me and I will make it happen, by gum.
