DevilDog Posted February 15 Report Share Posted February 15 KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Eight children were among 22 people hit by gunfire in a shooting at the end of Wednesday's parade to celebrate the Kansas City Chiefs' Super Bowl win, authorities said, as terrified fans ran for cover and yet another high-profile public event was marred by gun violence. One person was killed, identified by her radio station as a DJ. Kansas City Police Chief Stacey Graves detailed the shooting's toll at a news conference and said three people had been taken into custody. She said she has heard that fans may have been involved in apprehending a suspect but couldn’t immediately confirm that. Radio station KKFI said in a Facebook post Wednesday evening that DJ Lisa Lopez, host of “Taste of Tejano,” was killed in the shooting 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bormio Posted February 15 Report Share Posted February 15 We just can’t have nice things anymore. Of note, the KC police did not want Swift at the parade (she wasn’t) due to security concerns 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who brings a semi automatic weapon to a damn parade unless you're planning chaos. When I go to dinner my wallet is required, in desert storm I had my weapon. I've never confused either. They are not juveniles they are derelicts. 3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockinl Posted February 18 Report Share Posted February 18 If this happened in California or New York, they'd probably only get a year probation and a $200 fine. I cant remember this country being in this bad of shape, in all areas, in my lifetime. I also knew within 2 hours of the shooting that it wasn't a white male. If it had been, it would have been reported on network news as such, immediately. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevilDog Posted February 18 Author Report Share Posted February 18 And after they are identified The White Male who perpetuated has mental issues and tha Black perp is a thug indicative of the whole culture. The real answer is fuckups with access to tools of destruction regardless of hue. People rationalize what they believe off of misguided perceptions. Young Males are violent period. Why does the Military recruit teens and not 33yr olds? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with your premise. Thats usually how it's reported. I also know 100% there are truths in both of those, but for different reasons. The white male with "mental issues" is indicative of a kid who's whacked out liberal mother started shoving anti depressants/anxiety meds down his throat at 10 years old causing him to not care about his life or anyone else's. The black "thug" male who "shoots it up", grew up in a black sub culture that glorifies criminals, violence, and "poppin caps". It is what it is.

Both are indicative of our elected leaders refusing to do anything about the ability of civilians to get their hands on military type weapons. Our society as a whole glorifies violence. Any person who shoots another human being is 100% not right in the head. No matter if it is an angry white male or angry black male, 100% not rational. I have no idea what black sub-culture is. Not sure it is only liberal mothers who give their kids meds though. That seems a little strange. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I'm pretty sure for the most part none of then are political. It's driven by hate whether gang on gang or a societal nutjob that feels he needs to shoot up a school, etc. That bullet once it clears the barrel don't give a damn about the reason or characteristics of the person that initiated the trigger housing group. All of as at any minute can fall victim to either and that's fukn insane. Making it political is trying to reason well its not us. It's The United States it actually is us. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the same man that blames a Redneck culture originating by the British in the South and Transferred to blacks who during the great migration took it North. Hes a Conservative that says things about a black culture that he emitted from. A white male Dawson Richard Vosburg has dissected much of his utterances. He seems to blame racist whites. I bet they didn't know that about this brilliant one. Thomas Sowell Black Americans, especially the worst-off living in urban centers, have a “redneck” culture that was handed to them by White southerners via Britain. It is this culture which produces bad behavioral patterns, such as crime and single parenthood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I grew up in what Im sure you and I would consider a "redneck" southern culture of the 60's and 70's, but Ive chosen not to live that way as an adult. Why cant others do the same? Ill go ahead and assume you don't subscribe to Jesse Lee Peterson? hahaha If I want to read about black culture in America, I'll take this guys opinion.... over this guys. One preaches personal responsibility and fortitude, the other preaches victimhood and dependence. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One preaches personal responsibility and fortitude, the other preaches victimhood and dependence. You are making the wrong choice imo. To me, Sowell places blame on black people for being inherently inferior. You have Vosberg wrong too. He doesn't preach victimhood and dependence. He just says that (inequality, discrimination) explains differences much more than does the belief of inferiority. And the 'redneck argument' from Sowell that DevilDog mentioned is just bs. Does that argument make any sense to you? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
