‘Then why did they fire first while approaching the house.’

I missed that. Those kids indeed brought on their death.

There was a brief video of the homeowner published in one of the television news accounts.

He sure looked Black to me.

He had the good sense not to talk with the reporters.

Bless his heart. I do not envy his situation, with the know-it-all neighbor, Jenkins, who is running for office announcing to every TV reporter, over and over, "Yes, he loves his mother, she lives there alone, he's only there once or twice a month." Why doesn't he just stick a knife in their backs? What an idiot.

In this one narrow sense only, it's a relief that this was a black-on-black crime. Cannot imagine the uproar otherwise.

“You will be made to care”. Exactly!

One of the techniques, in a general sense, is to make it very, very difficult for people to remain noncommittal, or uninvolved, or even to keep their opinions to themself. In other words “Your Silence Is Approval”. It’s not enough to tolerate aberrent or deviant - in the true sense of the word, full throated admiration and outright approval is demanded, or you’re branded as a H8er.

So we’re now seeing normalcy demonized or pathologized, and every manner of self-destructive behavior glorified or turned into the fad du jour. There really are a lot of moving parts to this stuff, it isn’t as if human nature has changed in the last several thousand years. The habits of successful people have been studied. There’s even been a few books written on the subject ;)

It’s as if “they” took all that stuff, every bit of the research, and turned it inside out and upside down and weaponized it against the general populace. And, it’s working. I was long of the opinion that people generally would come around, they would cast aside beliefs that don’t comport even remotely with observed reality, as it were. I expect young people to be idealistic, and naive, and eventually temper their worldview with a bit of realism and humility. In many cases this isn’t happening, which is a real surprise to me.

People are in many cases growing up or aging physically, but not emotionally or intellectually. Really strange, I never would have believed half the crap going on right now even 20 years ago. Never in a million years. So one has to have a grudging admiration how effective the Democrat/Liberal tag team can be over time.

So far, no one has been charged in the teens' deaths.

Why would there be?

The people who deserve to be charged are the dead kids' parents but I doubt this will happen.

It is an abomination that they are holding a "community vigil" for those teens. That speaks volumes about the real values of anyone who attends, and provides an object lesson in the need for ordinary citizens to be armed at all times.

Hopefully the event is being used as instructive to the other neighborhood teens who think it's all good fun to roll up on people at 4:00 in the morning to rob them.
