You are exactly right. This is going on all over the country and blacks are venturing into the suburbs and coordinating via social media and cell phones. I am beginning to think community organizers are behind this as part of the racial plan that Ulsterman’s White House Insider was talking about recently. Perhaps they want to scare white voters into thinking the cities will burn if Obama isn’t elected. Perhaps New Black Panthers II.
I bike around the rough Tenderloin area in San Francisco, and keep alert. I also have a SureFire tactical light with a striking bezel and Kershaw speed safe knife in easy reach. Once I took my bike on the Caltrain from San Jose to the Bayshore station on the Daly City/San Francisco border and became very alarmed riding down Geneva St. To get to Daly City. I took my knife into my hand and rode as fast as I could, blowing through stops. Later, I discovered I was near notorious housing project called Visitacion Valley. I won’t make that mistake again and would never bike in Oakland, or the Bayview Hunter’s Point areas of San Francisco. If I see black teens around here on my bike, my knife will be in my hand ready. Unfortunately it’s impossible to get a CCW here.
The 1-on-1 violence no. I’m strictly talking about organized groups going outside their normal areas, like the burbs or the state fair or the commercial district like in Chicago. There is just a number of anomalies that don’t make this look quite so random.
Even with social media it takes an instigator to organize these events. Groups tend to organize around a ringleader. Since these areas are outside normal areas of operation, it takes something to incentivize these teens to take a risk, as groups of thugs aren’t normally that motivated to do highly visible stuff in areas where they’ll be drawn attention to. That suggests sponsorship.
These don’t seem to be average gang bangers. There’s been a general lack of weapons involved beyond crude ones - not guns and knives, etc. that bangers would use. It seems to be designed that way to keep it below the radar by avoiding serious injury or death. Compare those with what’s happening in England. It takes discipline to not devolve into a mob doing general mayhem. These events are very targeted and focused.
You may be right, it may be random networking. I myself am suspicious. What I’m seeing reported doesn’t seem to fit even random flash mob stuff. I’m going to remain suspicious till I see something that explains some of the things I’m seeing here.
More of this.
Like I care. Stay off threads that might upset you.
Or, maybe not.
Thank you for those kind words. It warms my heart that you don't care at all my wife was almost killed. You must be a really kind, empathetic person. /s
Harry Truman said “If you can’t take the heat stay out of the kitchen.” Likewise I can’t figure out why I should care that some threads upset you. Some threads upset me, but I don’t give a sob story. FYI I was riding a bicycle when a pickup full of A$$holes bomparded me with beer bottles. But I don’t go crying about how upset these threads make me.
No one was ever caught or charged.
I ride with my wife now and carry (legally with CHL) in the event this ever happens again.
