Nice grip on that butt, ...it’s one reason I like revolvers

I had to read this comment a couple of times.

Guess you know where my ‘mind’ is.

When I first saw pic, I commented to myself how the piece had a nice place to rest.

Then ‘CE’ sort of ‘read my mind’...

The little bank inside the small grocery store was robbed near us. The cops were there shortly - but the guy was gone. The cops had been inside the Starbucks two doors down (150 feet?) at the time.

Being white is not the reason for low crime. A cultural adherence to a value set that comes from a long history of thought and philosophy and religion is THE why. “Whites” did not magically pop into existence as better people it took thousands of years of struggle, violence and bloodshed to forge western thought. But we have thrown it away in one generation. I hope this experiment will eventually put us back on the right track, but i doubt it. A new dark age is more likely. A 1000 years perhaps and much misery.

Of course I was being annoying while confrontational to the Femanazis and irritating to the Gays, but truthful regarding revolvers.

However, philosophically, I believe armed Baristas are an excellent idea. And the rest of the gals should carry on their person, too, if they have a mind to.

I recommend not using a purse or handbag, and have respectfully disagreed with FReeper gals on this point, and anything that makes them and society more comfortable with firearms on their person, open or concealed, is OK with me.

Being white is not the reason for low crime.

"Being white is... the reason for low crime" is not what I said.

It's a good idea to cite what someone says before commenting on it, just to be sure you're getting it right.

In fact, though there is a higher statistical correlation with black violent crime than with white violent crime, correlation is not the same as causation, or as you put it "the reason for".

That said, whatever the causes may be, and whether you're black or white, you're less likely to be robbed, stabbed, shot, raped, etc, if you live in an area that's 95% white than 95% black. John Derbyshire in The Talk: Non-black Version was right.
