Why are Baltimore's violent repeat offenders getting away with murder?
The Baltimore Sun ^ | JUNE 10, 2016

Posted on 06/11/2016 7:43:46 PM PDT by MinorityRepublican

The sharp spike in homicides and shootings in Baltimore City since the unrest sparked by Freddie Gray's death in police custody last year has left police and prosecutors scrambling to contain the violence. Many of the people involved in such crimes are well known to police, who are frustrated by their inability to bring them to justice or secure convictions carrying lengthy prison terms. Why is it so hard for the authorities to get such people off the streets — and keep them off?

Having lived in a 95%+/- black neighborhood with the remainder being Hispanics and only two white families I can tell you that even when the police do show up, do their jobs and even make arrests the cockroaches come right back out as the cops are pulling away and shoot the finger finger in the cop's rearview.

The only thing thugs fear is a deadly serious, resolute person wielding a high capacity rifle or pistol, preferably a rifle, who has had enough. Suddenly the posse just seems to find other very important matters to attend to when they get braced up. It's insane because it's just like an elementary schoolyard at recess but with guns.

And eventually you'll have to be at work or at the store or somewhere and the inevitable break-in will occur. In my case our family home was burgled and torched but the insurance money was my mom's ticket out of the hood. I would never live in a state that did not allow at least concealed carry of handguns and thank the Almighty that in Texas the castle doctrine has been extended as far as it can be for now. I pray for Constitutional carry one day.

The problem with their operating model is the minority that funds it eventually is gone; at that point funds dry up and there is little left for schools, cops/firemen, etc.

When that happens a Welfarian reservation is born, completely dependent on federal funding with all residents as de facto “wards of the state” (in exactly the same manner as American Indians).

“What does the bible say?”

Most of them don’t even know what the Bible is! Sorry, I understand you are a person of Faith, but just because you think you’ve found the right Way, it doesn’t mean that Blacks will follow your lead. Personally, I think they will be iniquitous until the Second Coming

Oh it’s not MY lead that will (probably, unless I am in unusual evangelistic circumstances) count.

It’s GOD’S lead.

He knows when a people finally wearies of its idols and is there in a flash.

You had best be EXTREMELY careful of being impious yourself!

But in the meantime, it would be a sin not to do what one could towards the end of pitching the gospel their way and praying for a revival.

God controls what souls are going to be born where, and knows what each soul will or won’t accept before its body is conceived.

It was not on account of the huge virtue of Scotland that the John Knox era got so many Christians at one point, they were likened to having fallen from the skies.

It could well have been stern Calvinists, so convinced of God’s predestining power, that asked for the revival — and God saw and arranged it.

And spiritual children matter even more. If your kids are nihilists, what will they stand up for?

From CNS News July 2011 =>

Black Americans are the most religious in the United States, according to a newly released Gallup Poll.

In a daily tracking survey released July 1, Gallup found that 53 percent of black Americans were identified as being “very religious,” with 33 percent saying they were “moderately religious.”

That stands in contrast to the 39 percent of white Americans who said they were “very religious” and the 26 percent who said they were “moderately religious.”

Only 13 percent of blacks said they were “nonreligious,” versus 34 percent of whites.

Religious doesn’t mean godly, as history, including the bible itself, ought to clarify to us.

“A form of religion but denying its power” could be worse than just being flat out secular.

But yes, it’s a complex problem. Many churches’ vision of Jesus tends to be of a God that has easily satisfied aspirations. God’s own model, however, is “Grow, don’t plateau.”

Because Obola wants to start a race war so he can impose martial law, and retain his position as dictator.

Meanwhile, back at the ranch, the Sheriff need to hire some expert black marksmen, and bait the street-thugs into mortal combat gunfights.

Is that a threat? Because not everyone in this world sees things as you do, and I don’t take kindly to being threatened by anyone!

More like a wilderness right now, than a ranch.

It’s going to probably look like a Wild West kind of conquest, with little regional gunfighters and small areas of law and order that gradually increase and merge. But I never say never for the wholesale theistic solution, which has everyone beating their swords into plowshares.

By “animals” am I to understand that you mean lower-life people, or real animals?

If I say God has an eye on you against that, is this a threat?

You might try taking your “not taking kindly” to God and see what He does with it!

Hey I thought you were the person who loathed impiety? What happened?

My God and I have a decent relationship! I don't need your “ecclesiastical warnings!”

Oh you don’t?

You might check out who your “God” is, if He has you believing that a certain people group is inexorably doomed.
