You are absolutely correct.

I think alot of it had to do with the new (violins drawn) welfare state of entitlement, including entitled to be resentful, etc.

Was that a pointed white hood that blinked past in the video?

The guy looked like Woody Harrelson’s father???

“Eight people were shot during a family-friendly MLK day event”

i’d hate to see what happens at a non-family-friendly MLK event ...

Nope. He never brought it up. Ignored all their criminal activities. You know they never shoot each other every night in Chicago, NY City, Philly, Hotlanta, Houg-stun, Dallas, HomoFrisco, Seattle, Denver, Miami, and a hundred small cities and towns around the nation.

If there's an MLK Blvd, Rd, St etc anywhere in the country that doesn't have the highest crime in that city, I'd love to know where that is.

I can tell you where not to look; Barack Obama Blvd., Rd., St.

500+ years of tribal conflict. Same as when one tribe would conquer and sell the conquered into slavery, except they can’t sell them, so they just shoot them.

I was once driving through inner city Baltimore.
I passed a black guy with a cowboy hat on, and he was riding a horse.
Most confused I ever was…

This will be touted as a white supremacist terror attack. Any bets on whether it’s actually two gangs of teens fighting over a girl?

Crime statistics might’ve been different back then and were probably not easy to find without the resources we have today.

Local Miami media now reports a woman is dead from the gunfire.

And fake news repeats the lie of the Democrat party that “white nationalism” is the biggest danger in America.

Parts of Fort Pierce are very nice - on the ocean (Hutchinson Island). The rest of it is a sorry, dangerous mess.
