Nothing says Juneteenth more than a shooting.

Funny, the Irish don’t shoot each other up on St. Patrick’s Day. The Italians don’t murder each other on Columbus Day. The English don’t blow each other up on Guy Fawkes’ Day. WASPs don’t savage their country clubs on the 4th of July. So what’s with these “schwartzes”?

Same thing happened here in Milwaukee last night. Fight broke out among group of yutes and 17 year old pulled out gun. It’s not official celebration until this happens......

From VDH’s brilliant “the Talk, Non-Black Version”

10a) Avoid concentrations of blacks not all known to you personally.

(10b) Stay out of heavily black neighborhoods.

(10c) If planning a trip to a beach or amusement park at some date, find out whether it is likely to be swamped with blacks on that date (neglect of that one got me the closest I have ever gotten to death by gunshot).

(10d) Do not attend events likely to draw a lot of blacks.

(10e) If you are at some public event at which the number of blacks suddenly swells, leave as quickly as possible.

A black male between 16 and 35 is safer in prison than out on the street.

A Juneteenth celebration without at least 3 deaths is considered a very dull affair.

Since it’s only been an official fed holiday for 3 years now it’s almost an instant tradition.

Juneteenth is actually the Festivus airing of grievances.

I have a problem with some of you people.

Posted 6/19/24 for all the naysayers:

There will be uncivilized activity in many areas this evening. We’ll read about it tomorrow morning. Don’t take a risk by going into the fray.

“So what’s with these “schwartzes”?”

Gangs more than likely.....rival gangs attend a public event, run into each other and this is what happens.

Similar to biker clubs occasionally.....but FAR LESS often.

In 2015 there was a shooting at the Twin peaks restaurant between several rival biker clubs.....also in a Reno casino of all places in 2011 two biker clubs got into it.....but like I said, not often......in comparison, blacks seem to LOOK FOR an excuse to buss a cap.

Why is it that whenever a large group of blacks congregate at some event, somebody is going to wind up in a body bag?

You never hear of this type of incident at white, Latino or Asian gatherings..................
