I see the press is trying real hard to disassociate the “ Black Expo” from the shootings even though they occured around the Expo.
Perhaps black thugs routinely congregate in the area or perhaps they thought they were in Chicago. Thast would be a slow Saturday night on 0dumbo’s home town though.

It is the extremists at Tea Party events openly carrying firearms that we really need to worry about.

I guess it’s where the “Brothers” all get together and shoot at one another. Who knew!

What does "multi-culturalism" mean other than "multiple cultures"? And what is a culture other than a set of behaviors?

It seems that one of our constituent "cultures" is particularly prone to violence. Might that culture also be more prone to ignorance, corruption and crime?

Funny how my reading of the article seemed to make no mention of the description of the shooter(s). Guaranteed that if it was a white perp we’d know a LOT more details and have a ton of quotes from attendees.

Gravity seems to be working overtime on those twins. Or maybe the material in her top is just really heavy?

It was an “expo” on black life in the inner city... as if we don’t already know.
