I lament a 20 year old who likely had poor guidance in his life died but he brought it entirely on himself

No question whatsoever in this case

Doesn’t take much to get blacks to destroy where they live

Threaten an armed citizen, you’re likely to be ventilated.

Threaten a bunch of armed cops, you’re likely to be thoroughly ventilated: more people will be shooting at you.

Lesson: Don’t threaten armed people.

Excellent lesson lost on the supporters of Michael Brown, Trayvon Martin and this young man.

There is a different mindset among that tribe. For instance, there is a black cable channel that carries almost nothing but Cosby re-runs. Almost like an in your face to the white culture.

I don't see how you get to that conclusion.

Isn't the Huxtable family basically living a standard American upper-middle-class lifestyle, like that of other shows like The Brady Bunch, or Eight Is Enough, or Family Ties ?

Not only that, but if it’s on a black channel,
how is that in my face?

Exactly, and it is a tribal culture. That is why so many of them celebrated when O.J. was acquitted. They knew he was guilty, but it didn’t matter. He was one of them, and other races are the enemy.

You are so correct, but I will disagree on one point. The Barbarians are not at the gates, they’re inside the gate and that’s why we should be armed up, one never knows when one of these animals is going to pop out of a shadow and attack.

“Doesn’t take much to get blacks to destroy where they live.”

That’s the real tragedy. In a white neighborhood, and if he were white, the neighbors would have reported him and called the cops. Everybody would have been happy to see him gone and, SURPRISE, a lot more of the people would have been armed. My neighborhood, for example, is gun saturated and I’m proud to be one of the saturators.

“TRUTH DOESN’T MATTER TO THE BARBARIANS”

The urban black community does not trust LEOs and look at them more as an occupying force. It doesn’t matter of they hire more black officers, community outreach programs or public meetings.

Whether you think it’s right or wrong, blacks would rather live with a criminal than have anything to do with law enforcement. I think it stems from the fact that incarceration rates are high for blacks in general and young black males in particular. Those in and out of prison have families and friends and most all of them will take their side over law enforcement. The prevailing attitude is that talking to law enforcement will get them into more trouble with elements of the black community. Talking with the police could open up some informants to legal jeopardy as accomplices or petty crime offenders so they shut up (that’s not unwise).

Law enforcement will not solve this problem. A tough crackdown will reinforce hostile attitudes against police and authority. De facto no go zones are sometime the only pragmatic approach at least on the short run, but are by no means a solution.

I’m good with overwhelmingly.
I fought in Desert Storm.
We went from the center of the “L” and swept into Kuwait City with tremendous close air and artillery support after bombing the crap out of the Iraqis.

Overwhelmingly is my best friend.

All that doesn't matter.

All that matters is the color of his skin.

So sick of these chimpouts.

They need to come down hard on these animals.

“...This guy had like 15 bullet holes in him. Sounds more like an assassination....”
Sounds more like a good start. At least the POS won’t have be housed and fed for the next 30 years....at taxpayers’ expense. Bullets are cheap.

Despite the fact that before the trial, O.J. was the “whitest” black man in America.
