"My ancestors worked but got nothing --slavery. And so now I will get stuff WITHOUT working. And that is JUSTICE.."

Many DO think this stuff.

Thievery does not cause them feelings of guilt BECAUSE THEY DO NOT VIEW IT AS THIEVERY.

CTA trains are one of the “prohibited places” in Illinois Concealed Carry laws.

Correct, as are CTA buses and Metra commuter trains as well.

Well, they're "prohibited" for those who don't care about protecting their own personal safety as much as I do.

Just sayin'.....

I’m pretty sure they’re scathed

Whites live in the North while the Blacks live in the South. If you're a White person, why would you venture to the South Side?

Police are also baffled at the latest new York face-slashings.

Motive? They don’t need no steenking motive. Or, as Richard Pryor learned from a brother while performing at a prison...

Pryor -— Why did you break into the house and murder all those people?

Inmate -— Well, they was home.

" it will be tough to ride the train again as she struggles to understand why she was targeted."

Why did the train do this to her? What did she do to offend the train? It's a complete mystery!

So she is struggling to understand why these savages targeted her

As time passes I wonder if the right conclusion will dawn on her as she replays the event in her mind each and every day? She will never forget it.

They can’t move to the south of their own city. That’s scathed

I believe it's time to resurrect the Guardian Angels. Not sure if they ever had a chapter in Chicago but here in New York, they made a very big difference. Even today, it is relatively safe on the NYC subways. Of course, the NYPD and Rudy Guiliani had a lot to do with that also.

I think they are baffled as to the motive. Even the victim is baffled. Everyone is baffled.

You are no doubt correct.

Admittedly, the event presents a very complex factual pattern. There are perhaps good local reasons not to speculate or rush to unfounded conclusions. This, of course, may even outweigh a detailed, in-depth consideration of the obvious.*

The police are probably baffled that she was on the L by herself.

That, sir, is the only explanation that makes sense.

”She described the attacker as an African American man in his mid-20's.

Another one of Obama's sons.

I’m sure most of you know, but most feral youth or homeless board a train and go from car to train car looking for victims. I’ve lived most of my life here in Chicago, they usually do this on North Northwest side. They spot a victim, (who usually isn’t paying attention - had her headphones on) wait ‘til train nears a station, jump for the phone and run out the door

She Said she doesn’t know why she was targeted, Is she new to living in the city? Sadly this happens all the time, mostly on the blueline

Colin Flaherty is an award winning reporter and author of the #1 best selling book White Girl Bleed a Lot: The Return of Racial Violence to America and How the Media Ignore it.

His new book is Knockout Game a Lie? Aww, Hell No.

Both books are about black mob violence, black on white crime and the Knockout Game.

His work has appeared in more than 1000 news sites around the world, including the New York Times, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Time Magazine. His story about how a black man was unjustly convicted of trying to kill his white girlfriend resulted in his release from state prison and was featured on Court TV, NPR, The Los Angeles Times and San Diego Union-Tribune.

Thomas Sowell: ”Reading Colin Flaherty’s book made painfully clear to me that the magnitude of this problem is greater than I had discovered from my own research. He documents both the race riots and the media and political evasions in dozens of cities.” – National Review.

oh, I don’t know about Abraham Lincoln- if you look up some of his quotes, he was a realist at least.
