    Anyone else see these idiots?

    It really all comes down to semantics. At some point, the actual meaning of "racism" got mixed up with other aspects of racism -- prejudice, bigotry, ignorance, and so on. It's true: White people can experience prejudice from black people and other non-whites. Black people can have ignorant...

    The Ferguson Affect...

    I most certainly do not. They have helped destroy our communities. As I have tried to explain, it isn't either or, It's both. We also disagree as to what constitutes a gangbanger, and that is the problem. "Other research found that the public and police are less likely to view black people as...

    The Ferguson Affect...

    For the reasons I previously stated. And also this: Researchers at the University of Colorado Boulder and California State University Northridge in May reviewed a decade of empirical evidence about cops and implicit bias. They found police officers seem to possess implicit bias that might make...

    The Ferguson Affect...

    If it happened the way you described it, then no I don't condone Michael Browns actions at all. The problem is that I don't believe the police officer. In the last year there have been numerous unjustified police shootings and flat out murders (caught on tape) and the police have flat out lied...

    The Ferguson Affect...

    And when challenged and confronted with the anger that police by their actions have sown, those same cops people whom we are told are tough and strong, and this is why they became cops in the first place whine like children, unable or unwilling to withstand criticism. Or they insist that such...

    State of the Union Address

    When President Obama took office, the American economy was in a death spiral: the worst economic crisis in 60 years, ongoing wars in two foreign countries costing Americans trillions of dollars, the lives of 3,000 American soldiers, 10,000 disabled veterans and up to 100,000 non-combatant...

    When it rains.....

    Given that the president is defined as the Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States by the Constitution and that fact that the Marines dress code protocol says the Commandant or higher authority can authorize articles that are not authorized for wear as a part of a regulation...

    Shit, everyone in the 909 better stay home this Friday...

    Everything you said is true. Combine that with the fact that the police imprisoned the Gang leadership and tore down the housing projects. The result was hundreds of gang members moving into communities of rival gangs. Now instead of two or three gangs, There are 20 different factions with no...

    Shit, everyone in the 909 better stay home this Friday...

    It is a bloodbath. It is a problem of epic proportions. Broken homes, children not being raised, lack of morality, materialism, lack of education, poverty, racism etc. I grew up in Chicago, and I know that the Democratic party (or the Republicans) isn't the answer. Jesus is the answer. I could...

    It's called sarcasm. No matter what he does, you guys will find fault. When his term is over perhaps there will be a new target (Chicago notwithstanding).

    Shit, everyone in the 909 better stay home this Friday...

    1. Obama comes immediately after the shooting = He is trying to make it about himself, gun control etc. 2. Obama delays his visit until things have died down = It's a last minute visit, It's not sincere it's on his way to Hawaii. Like most of you, I can't wait until his term is over...
