It's like a real bizarro world. When stories concerning black on black killings are published, the vast lib media universe goes "uh huh...hmmmmm.. uh huh...hey, did you hear that story about the racist white person?...let's make a big deal about the racist, white person." The slaughter in the black sections of the country has been going on since I was a child fifty years ago. The only thing libs of all colors want to do is either ignore the slaughter or blame some white person, any white person for the slaughter.
Could someone post a photo of all the national media vans and reporters around the park?
Yeah, but not one of those kids from 100 years ago could make a cat video, upload it to the cloud, post it to YouTube, tweet it, and link it on Pinterest all from an iPhone.
social engineering...
I’m starting to put this in the same category as muslims killing muslims. If they don’t care, why should I?
Chicago has some of the strongest gun control laws in the country.
This sounded like a firefight.
Where did all the guns come from?
I saw it at Huffington Post. The comments on the article are all far to the right of Free REpublic. I kid you not.
I.E. Chicago needs its community organizer back.
As ASA Vet said, it’s not the age so much as the character. One hundred years ago (read the ‘Little House ‘ books) a teenage girl was ready to be a wife and mother by training and character. The pioneer women had a deep sense of duty and responsibility, character and self sacrifice (and deep Christian beliefs and morals) . They also had many useful skills in cooking, sewing, childcare and healing. Laura Ingalls Wilder had more maturity at 16 than I probanly do in middle age.
But yes, rewarding selfish, uncivilized teenage boys and girls to behave like animals only compounds the problem each generation.
But they could learn to do so in a matter of hours or days, once they'd finished remarking over what wonders God had wrought. It would take our kids years to overcome their inferior education and pass that test!
I wonder if Chicago has gone say, 24 or 48 hours without out a shooting in the last year.
Or 25 to 6 to 4 hours?
(Sorry, couldn't resist)
If only Chicago has strict gun-control laws, this would be happening daily. Oh wait, never mind.
I get it!
Maybe inner-city Chicagoans learn to set their times by the particular kind of shooting...
Two old dudes sitting on a stoop. They hear the screech of car tires, followed by five gunshots. "Dinnertime!" one says to the other, and heads inside.
it's mother should have been the one what got shot...
I don’t know about more or less complex, but toss a 17 year old out on a plot of land today and see how fast he starves.
Modern life “complexity” does not justify the level of coddling we see going on today.
Protip: If you’re gonna bust a cap, please don’t hold your weapon sideways. Just sayin’
