Aside from the personal tragedy, politically this is very very bad for donations to "justice" Dems and sympathy for them. It's why they are making a big deal of it in the news. It's actually just outside of one of the richest neighborhoods in the world, but is a border area with "Spanish Harlem", where a lot of older and divorced and high earner professional singles have apartments, just the kind of upper middle class people who are politically active liberals. Rather than it being a question of whether they are establishment Republicans or Democrats.as it is on the true upper east side.

lots more comments on the thread. What I am aghast by is how many of these young women talk like this is rare and they never heard of it happening before. As far as I am concerned, it's a major part of "baby daddy" culture! A lot of these men impregnate woman just for the power trip of fathering lots of babies, not because they are in love with the baby mama or want to be a family man. It's about power, and if the mama doesn't obey and jump at his every command. well...

Yup:
Handguns are the problem. They have always been the main problem. The mass shootings with automatic rifles are an outlier distraction and like other forms of terrorism - and they mostly are terrorism - the population lets themselves be terrorized by them. While handguns do the day in, day out massive damage in homicide, suicide and a unknown massive number of injuries that ruin healthy people's entire lives.

On the Jayland Walker case in Akron. Ask yourself if you were one of the cops, what would you do?
Looks and sounds to me like they overdid it because they were scared shitless by Walker's behavior. If I were them, I would certainly be scared shitless that he was looking to do serious harm.

good question on a long thread about related protests with lots of videos of the protests
boy, in the first video posted by ComradeOhio, those Akron PD "pigs" setting up protest barricades at the Akron Justice Center look like bloodthirsty civilian-killers, don't they? Reminds me of the Capitol Police "pigs" on Jan. 6
by artappraiser on Sun, 07/03/2022 - 5:15pm
Simple mistake - apparently Walker didn't have time to put on his clown shoes leaving the car.
I'd have thought "leading cops on a long car chase is cool" wasn't one of the takeaways from Rodney King, but 30 years later we're grasping

retweeted by Peter Moskos (I find the last tweet especially spot on, but then you realize that most activists protesting police action don't want a police force at all. a good example is right above, 'ComradeOhio" calls them "pigs" and is ready to rumble with all of them, it's like he gets blood lust everytime there's a shooting by police)

related to his last tweet above one thing I have seen lately that really drives me nuts (espec. after Uvalde) from "Justice Dems" who are longtime supporters of "Defund and Abolish" is jumping on the "gun control" wagon. Who the fuck do they expect to control who gets to own a gun? And who do they expect to take away guns from illegal owners? Social workers?!!! Gun regulation would require police for chrissake! At least the radical anarchists helping to run outfits like BLM are honest about not wanting to let the state regulate guns!

When i was a kid a friend decided it was a great idea to borrow a car from a dealer lot and take it on a multi state cruise. Caught up with him in PA, where he wrecked the car in a chase, the cops pulled him out of the window w/o opening the door and bashed his head on the ground a few times for their troubles (he also injured his leg, a couple inches shorter for life, but that was the crash). I don't think any of us much faulted the police for the extra "brutality" - he endangered their lives and other bystanders, a lesson of sorts, even tho i didn't much like cops and their constant profiling of longhairs et al. It wasn't the long drawn out of a Rodney King confrontation (tho King was a big guy, this guy was a squirt). Yes, 60 bullets in
Mr. Ski Mask is a lot, but these are also much crazier times - no cop back 50 years ago would just assume an idiot on a long chase would come out shooting - nowadays it's halfway obligatory. And we can quaintly go back and compare it to the Sandra Bland pullover while thinking of the recent street party attacking cop cars. So much to chew over.

SUPERB instructional video by Chris Rock.
(Posted on YouTube in 2007, don't know how much older than that it is):
Wonder if it's a variant of "the talk" his parents gave him; if I recall correctly, he has said he grew up in a mostly white community but sounded like lots of ethnic working class street-smart types.

special note for lefty "defund" types (like "The Squad") that in NYC, the police's specialists are needed to help the fucking social workers, not the other way around
but then they don't actually read about or study local government, nuance would ruin their narrative...

The person of interest in the Highland Park parade shooting is not just a fan of rap, he's definitely a rapper himself
Stage name Awake, stylized as Awake The Rapper, Musical artist (Bobby Crimo)
by artappraiser on Mon, 07/04/2022 - 6:43pm
They've got him, captured alive. I note that there's tons (and I mean tons) of liberal racialists on twitter commenting that because he was take alive because he's white (many also say he's a white supremacist, they don't know that for a fact, nothing showing that yet, they're just presuming!) and Jayland Walker was shot 100 times in Akron because he was black.
Unfortunately for all of the "police are racist pigs" liberals, these guys saw the whole arrest from their car and taped it. Crimo not only didn't take the cops on a chase, but once his car was stopped did everything the cops told him to do. And Walker did just the opposite.

Gov. Pritzger (subtle comparison to Uvalde and Akron; and more cynically I would say thanking the forces who do good is one way to keep them)
Really, where are we if we have no police and this mess of mass shootings every day?! The cop haters are simply made further absurd. That's leaving out the argument, which I have made, that they caused so many more guns to be purchased in 2020 during a pandemic by making police in general the enemy! Thank them, thank them for not quitting in the face of nearly impossible odds now after the Supreme Court ruling! Do you want civilization or not?
by artappraiser on Tue, 07/05/2022 - 12:36pm
and still, look at the negativity towards cops in many of the replies, including an activist account for "Abolish the Police"; it's like they want no cops in the face of this - anarchists hoping for Armageddon, letting Crimo types run free after they do an afternoon's mass shooting, or what?

Big strike against proponents of gun control is that he purchased the high-powered rife LEGALLY IN ILLINOIS, not out of state. This is a reporter quoting from today's news conference:
So the Illinois system did not work in this case! Any screening that they do was useless. At the same time, obviously the ATF has good records on those guns sold in Illinois. The gun laws in Illinois are not preventative, legal punishment after the fact has to serve as the preventative for future possible perps, that's all you've got here. Unless you want to start giving the government the results of psychiatric tests in order to purchase.
A reminder that we don't do that with cars. We let people have licenses at a relatively young age after training and skill testing. Punishment for criminal use is after the fact. We don't try to prevent use based on psychiatric testing or what they posted on social media.

TOO MANY MASS SHOOTINGS CELEBRATING THE FOURTH! NO WAY AM I GONNA LOOK UP ALL THESE STORIES:
all I'd like to say on that: if you make your judgments about violent shootings in this country from what happened at the Highland parade, you're making a big mistake, interpreting the situation with blinders on!
We pay a huge amount of taxes for professional police, the F.B.I. and the Bureau of A.T.F. HOW ABOUT LISTENING TO WHAT THEY SAY WE SHOULD DO ABOUT THIS PROBLEM? Just a fucking thought. I saw Bloomberg do that, it worked! Just sayin. They've got a mess after everyone bought guns in 2020 while tons of people and politicians endorsed defunding police at the same time riots, looting and a pandemic. And now they've got more ghost guns to deal with too, which won't be traceable. But they are the best experts we got. That's what any other logical country would do.

I can only imagine 2022. Black Female Lives Matter too. It used to be more the male gangbangers died - now it's indiscriminate crowd killings, what little honor there was is gone.
(do note that with the woke "can't say female" MSM is stuck with "women and girls", pretty bad if you're writing a longer piece and have to keep repeating - maybe "WAGs" for short?)

actually I think they are not supposed to be using "women and girls" either, they are supposed to use "people who menstruate" for adults and teens (and a child is simply a child, no gender, gender open to decide tater.) seriously. certain some non-profit institutions are already using this language.

Derek Chauvin sentenced to 21 years for violating George Floyd's civil rights (Federal case & he pled guilty)
US national news 3 hours ago
A federal judge on Thursday sentenced former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin to 245 months in federal prison for violating George Floyd's civil rights when he killed Floyd in 2020. Chauvin pleaded guilty in December to federal charges of depriving Floyd of his civil rights. Chauvin was separately sentenced to 22.5 years on state charges of murder and manslaughter

Here is the reason cops profile young men with black skin as more likely to be criminal:
and they are doing that to help any "Black community" not hurt it or keep it down:
The number dwarfs the death and shooting of blacks by cops! All such shootings have remained stable for years and amount to like 1,000 a year for all colors of skin! To the point of absurdity. That the focus should be on the outlier examples of police brutality by cops against people with black skin. Really just absurd! Delusionary!
If you want that profiling to be minimized, all you have to do is stop collecting and maintaining statistics that differentiate by color of skin and you've lessened the chance of this profiling and reasoning by cops by a major amount.
But if you don't want that to happen, because other resulting statistics from the collection of data by color of skin might benefit in other ways, well then you're stuck because the reality is that young black men glamorize ownership of guns and police are going to use that.

Exclusive: Watch Uvalde school shooting video obtained by Statesman showing police response

Editor's note: The video footage, audio, and events described in this story about the Uvalde school shooting are disturbing. Discretion is advised. This exclusive story and video are being made available free of charge as a public service. If you value strong journalism from the American-Statesman, support us by subscribing. You can read more about our decision to publish this video here.
Personally I see lots of chaos. Those are not properly trained police. Totally unprofessional. Many look like goofballs who don't have a clue. (just one example I see a couple gungho guys just seemingly decide arbitrarily to go down the hall first after a wait, then the guys with the ballistic shields follow -instead of going first?) Totally disorganized. Also seems like no actual command. And they had more than an hour to plan?!

turns out they are sworn to protect the normie citizens from the huge packs of roving, twerking, wilding and sometimes rioting #ghetto yuds who have taken to dominating Millennium Park this summer (despite a curfew).

No license required as of July 1 to carry a concealed handgun in Indiana, so it's probable that this "good samaritan" is the new NRA poster boy. Should be a poster boy for Defund/Abolish, don't need police, that's solved, everyone just carries a gun. Lot more death and mayhem but who needs the sheriff?
by artappraiser on Sun, 07/17/2022 - 9:52pm

The Indiana mall shooter was another loony wacked out 4 Chan 'yud' -
MEANWHILE IF YOU SCOOT UPTHREAD SOME, there are REMINDERS that there was far worse murder and mayhem at a holiday block party in Gary by Black against Black
and I predicted and expected worse than what happened at the mall based on the new gun laws there and this quote by police
so cool it on the fear of white supremacy extremist crap, I ain't buying, as Blacks are doing far more damage to Blacks than a few 4 chan idiot yuds (most no doubt looking to imitate the male rapper role model they fell in love with as pre-teens by trying on Nazi personas and the like)
Surely the new laws in Indiana make it easier for both kinds of murder and mayhem. Carry around your gun until you/re ready, just be aware others may be doing the same.
