Or just pure hate. There was a fourth family member that was never mentioned. Probably a woman that was not doubt terrified. Odd times, but not uncommon anymore.

I’d wager those 2 are just hateful folks, and especially cowardly attacking elderly folks. Article said the man was drunk. Sounds like he grew himself some beer muscles.

Nope. I hear it about monthly. I wake up and go back to bed. I don't call 911 because I know the ShotSpotter sensors are nearby and automatically dispatch police units.

But think of the benefits.

For every 5K killed we have saved ONE criminal from the rare bad cop.

We really need more memorials and statues of these criminals. So we can take our minds off the thousands of innocents killed. And get the media to hide this even more.

Feel free to look up the numbers the past year.

It's clear to me that everyone would rather see black teenagers dead than violate political correctness norms. When I say everyone, I mean all politicians, news media and the people in the communities where they live.

It's an odd development. I'm pretty sure the politicians have calculated it's cheaper to let them kill each other than pay the costs of prison. Eventually everyone who isn't a criminal leaves a shooting gallery neighborhood and it ends as urban prairie. Prime for redevelopment. Politicians would see that as a win.

Except the numbers continue to climb and last I read will surpass 2008. You think it should be ignored depending on circumstances?

Goes to show you what echo-chambers do to the lower IQ folks. They can’t understand simple statistics and are easily led down dark holes. Shame, but they just aren’t bright.
