No problem at all. My comments didn’t fit and it’s easy to see why you mentioned my mistake.

Take care.

"We need assistance locating the shooter,'' Edwards said. "We believe there is another side to the story. So we need that person to come forward and tell their side of the story. Please call 254-1764 or 254-7777."

It sounds to me like the witnesses at the gas station already gave the shooter's side of the story. Someone tried to rob him - he defended himself. Why would the police need to talk to him?

That reminds me of a man who was not from Birmingham and was near the airport, can’t remember if he was waiting for his wife’s flight or what, but he went a few blocks up the road and decided to wash his car and was murdered in the car wash.

The area where the attempted car-jacking happened was one of the original white flight areas of Center Point, about 10 to 15 miles from the city center.

Then Section 8 happened and now that once pristine area is worse than Birmingham itself. I’d feel safer walking down a street in downtown Bham than I would the back side of Center Point.

But the gangs are out of control in Bham, in all the areas around there including the once safe Hoover. Last Saturday at 6:30 p.m. two armed gang bangers robbed a Jet-Pep right across the street from the biggest and busiest mall in the state of Alabama.

The Birmingham News has a total blackout against writing about organized gang crimes and they very rarely investigate or use Facebook photos of these young gangsters holding guns.

But the minute a white politician’s son is arrested for DUI or something like that, they will raise his Facebook account and write about ten articles over two weeks.

And the homosexual stuff, they just never stop with that. (One of their main editors is a lesbian.) But people quite buying the paper so much that they were forced to only publish 3 days a week and sell their large building and move into a much smaller one. They’ve laid off about 40% of their staff in the past few years since the all-gay, all the time movement started.

Correct. Goggle does not have time for such nonsense.

They’re very busy trying to get their photograph recognition software to stop automatically classifying the Shamar Polks of the world as gorillas....

But unfortunately, the gangs have a never ending supply of "young soldiers" in Bham to take their place.

The police want to trap him. There is a rule developing that under no circumstances should one shoot a black; even if he assaults you, attempts to rape your wife or daughter; beat your aged father to death; fire a shot at you personally etc. etc.

Is the poster in the background showing a “melanin-deficient” person?

H/T to our FRiends Bodleian_girl for the post, and Kartographer for the heads-up.

And pay close note of Bodleian_girl's observation at #44, this thread.

The Gibsmedats are being protected by police practice, and the media runs interference.

The situation will not improve over time, as we know...

For thus has the Lord said unto me:
“Go, set a watchman, Let him declare what he sees.”
Isaiah 21:6

Oh I agree totally on the death of major papers in Alabama. Birmingham and Huntsville now only publish three days a week. Neither can sustain any profit and need to utilize mostly national news to fill up their columns. Most people have given up totally, and rely upon local network news journalists. It’s almost comical how the views of the guys or gals running the newspaper business in the state have given up and just sell gimmick-news.

As for Birmingham....if you go back to around 2011...they had a guy who was down in the city for some contract repair work and took his car over to a local car wash to clear it on some Saturday morning. Got shot dead there in the car wash.

Being from the state....I’d say it’s the most corrupted place you could possibly imagine. These guys in Birmingham were bankrupt....yet asking for hundreds of thousands to fly like fifty of their folks to some national city conference for a week, in Alaska back three years ago. Totally broke, and they were still trying to spend money that didn’t exist.

I guess I could simply accept that these people really want to destroy this nation, but they live here too.

This behavior on their part is unfathomable.

They should be able to see what is taking place in the communities around where they live.

At the same time, I realize they don’t live in the worst communities, but the crime leaves those communities and spreads out. Don’t they care about their families or friends and their families?

Just really strange. These people are cultists...

By a not very remarkable coincidence, the Birmingham News is owned by the same tribe (in this case they call themselves “Advance Publications”) who own the uber-liberal rag in Harrisburg, PA that isn’t going to print any viewpoints that dare oppose the glorious march of Organized Faggotry:
