Re: The 2nd Amendment Thread
 

The top 10 cities with the most overall violent crime, which includes major urban areas New York, Los Angeles and Chicago, are all run by Democrats.

The Republican-run city with the highest number of cases of violent crime is Jacksonville in Florida, which is 17th on the FBI list.

Of the top 10 cities with most violent crime cases per 10,000 people, only Springfield, Missouri is not run by a Democrat mayor (he's Independent). The rest have Democratic administrations.

(FBI Uniform Crime Report January to June 2019)

So what's the solution? I don't know, but we could start by looking at the policies of the most violent cities, enforcement of their laws (or lack thereof), sentencing trends, rehabilitation...

It's a country wide problem for sure because it affects all of us, but I'm not sure it's a mere coincidence that the most violent cities are run by Democratic mayors, sheriffs, prosecutors, and city council leaders.

[quote=MTK;1319779]So where are all the Republican led cities that have a clean record on crime?[/quote]

lol they so mad

When you see the counties around the cites have higher gun ownership rates that average 0 homicides per years it becomes a problem talking point. Like here in Richmond VA.

As well as rural areas which are poorer and avg 0 homicides per year.

Liberals throw their hands up like they can’t figure it out

Its a country wide problem not a political.

The part that made me smirk about the Uvalde shooting (which I realize there is really nothing to smirk about); is that it happened down in Big Red Texas where everyone carries their guns to protect themselves yet the same fate occurred that happened in Blue Sandy Hook.

The whole argument of self defense falls on deaf ears to me, you can't defend against a sucker punch.[/quote]

Bullshit

Bro you can follow the reforms since 2016 and see crime rates are worse period.

Also since whatever clowns refer to as the racial reckoning , only blacks have suffered the backlash with higher homicides and violence rates. Other racial groups see no movement

Re: The 2nd Amendment Thread
 

Boys need fathers. Absentee fathers are the number 1 cause of crime. That's the starting point for improving crime rates in just about any city, regardless of the which side of the political spectrum is running it.

Followed by poverty and mental health (these are the 2 that should be the hardest to fix imo).

And also releasing violent criminals well before they ever serve near a remotely acceptable jail time.

I would say a very good reason for some crime but many good kids are raised by single Moms and Grandparents. Poverty IMO is the number one reason for crime.

Huh?

Not sure what point you’re trying to make but population density can correlate to crime rates. Of course east bumfuck with Mayor Bubba has lower crime than NYC. It’s apples to oranges.

Re: The 2nd Amendment Thread
 

I set up the WATCH D.O.G.S. program at my kids' school when we moved here. I'm not sure if anyone on here is familiar with it. Anyway, these are some of the statistics I used at my kickoff event to help entice Dads to get more involved with their kids, particularly their education. It's 8 years old, but I'm sure it still applies.

• Physical fatherlessness effects 25 million children nationwide, and millions more are effected by emotional fatherlessness. It’s tougher to track but many believe it’s actually more damaging than not having a father at all.

• Fatherlessness has a dramatic effect on every social and economic category. The National Census Bureau says that children living in fatherless homes are 5 times more likely to be at or under the poverty line.

• Crime- The Journal of Criminal Justice in 2009 found that particularly boys in father absent homes are at a dramatically higher risk for having personal and property delinquencies, substance abuse, and drinking/smoking.

• Teen pregnancy- Research in child development has shown that consequently, teens without an involved father are twice as likely to be involved in early sexual activity. Teen is defined as younger than 18 years of age. Young women are 7 times more likely to get pregnant in adolescence if they do not have a positive male role model actively engaged in their lives.

• Education- The Department of Health and Human Services said that students living in father absent homes are twice as likely to repeat a grade, but father involvement is more likely associated with those students making, “mostly A’s.”

• US Department of Health and Human Services states fatherless children are twice as likely to drop out of school. The most recent statistics show that 7000 students drop out of school every day, and only about 70% of students graduate high school. They also state that in the 50 largest cities in the US, HS graduation rates are only 58%.

“World population review” lol

Narrative not holding up? SS, who are committing these crimes in Memphis? Also, both these folks were let out early…the mass shooter, was charged with attempted first degree murder…plead and only served 9 months, being let out early. That’s soft on crime.

I don’t know why you dislike poor people so much, but an average family on welfare receives something 16k yearly in OK versus 60k in D.C.

The excuse of poverty is b.s. in committing gun crime…folks in urban areas receive more money and have more resources close by. Along with access to utilities and social programs…usually free as well.

Who is committing gun crimes in this country SS? If you remove Baltimore from Maryland, where do they rank in violent crime? What about Philly or Chicago? What’s the percentage of gun crime in those areas versus the rest of the state?

You are trying to say rural, less populated southern areas who don’t have major urban bases…are more dangerous. It’s a false narrative. Gun violence is local.

Look at PG county up by you..what’s up with record homicides and juveniles committing car jacking? the poor implementation of juvenile justice reforms are too blame…maybe the parents should try to actually parent in PG county.

Just my two cents second amendment and gun violence are two different issues.

When I look at gun violence I see data and the data overwhelming supports that certain types of gun control is highly effective and there are reasons for it. What we do in this country in terms of the type of gun laws we have is not supported by the data. The flip side of that is the second amendment is not a scientific issue. It is a moral one do you believe in the right to own a gun or not.

That's you, laws are to deal with 100% of the population. Should people be allowed to have guns , IMO No no need for them but I know that's not reasonable. SO you regulate it like a car. Registrations , age limits , Insurance AND TAX THE SHIT OUT OF AMMO.

West was arrested on Wednesday and is currently in police custody on a $100,000 bond. An initial police report described the shooting as a “justifiable homicide.”

A GoFundMe was set up to help Shin’s family with expenses, such as funeral costs and legal fees. The crowdfunding effort has raised more than $85,000 as of this writing. "Any excess funds will be received by his surviving 14-year-old daughter," the GoFundMe post noted.

Any car accident can turn into a wild west shoot out .. since everyone has a gun.

When is Texas/Abbott/Cruz going to do something about the rampant "justified homicides" in their State?

Texas road rage and guns = death

These are people legally allowed to carry guns around with them ... maybe guns for everyone everywhere isnt a good idea.

Hope everyone who was there will be able to get the help they need. And RIP to those who died.

If I felt like there was something positive to be gained or some common middle ground we could all reach from this experience, I'd say something. But we all know passing any sort of law that makes it harder for nutjobs to have access to guns is really some sort of law against mainstream conservatism in disguise, so we can't do anything.

The suspect’s father is a mixed martial arts fighter and pornography performer with an extensive criminal history, including convictions for battery against the alleged shooter’s mother, Laura Voepel, both before and after the suspect was born, state and federal court records show. A 2002 misdemeanor battery conviction in California resulted in a protective order that initially barred the father, Aaron F. Brink, from contacting the suspect or Voepel except through an attorney, but was later modified to allow monitored visits with the child.

The father also was sentenced to 2 1/2 years in custody for importation of marijuana and while on supervised release violated his conditions by testing positive for illegal steroids, according to public records. Brink could not be reached for comment Tuesday.

Aldrich’s request for a name change came months after Aldrich was apparently targeted by online bullying. A website posting from June 2015 that attacked a teen named Nick Brink suggests they may have been bullied in high school. The post included photos similar to ones of the shooting suspect and ridiculed Brink over their weight, lack of money and what it said was an interest in Chinese cartoons.

The suspect is non binary…meaning he is part of the community he attacked. So this strategy to politicize this senseless act of violence falls flat yet again.

Maybe his mental illness is caused by this weird fad to be non binary or whatever clown piss these folks they will make up tomorrow. Pathetic bullshit community

I guess I should expect apologies from NBC news, CNN, msnbc, Washington Post, other fake news outlets to Tucker, Fox News, Libs of Tik Tok, GOP politicians, Etc?

Is there every any accountability for this fake news bullshit? Shouldn’t there be?[/quote]

Solid job pointing the finger at the LGBTQ+ community Chico, for a brief second I forgot to question why this nutjob had access to guns.

[quote=SunnySide;1330051]You seem angry today .. a bunch of gay people get killed and your take is "pathetic bullshit community" ..

honestly take step back from buying into all this culture war stuff for a bit .. gay people arent the enemy.


--------------

The suspect’s father is a mixed martial arts fighter and pornography performer with an extensive criminal history, including convictions for battery against the alleged shooter’s mother, Laura Voepel, both before and after the suspect was born, state and federal court records show. A 2002 misdemeanor battery conviction in California resulted in a protective order that initially barred the father, Aaron F. Brink, from contacting the suspect or Voepel except through an attorney, but was later modified to allow monitored visits with the child.

The father also was sentenced to 2 1/2 years in custody for importation of marijuana and while on supervised release violated his conditions by testing positive for illegal steroids, according to public records. Brink could not be reached for comment Tuesday.

Aldrich’s request for a name change came months after Aldrich was apparently targeted by online bullying. A website posting from June 2015 that attacked a teen named Nick Brink suggests they may have been bullied in high school. The post included photos similar to ones of the shooting suspect and ridiculed Brink over their weight, lack of money and what it said was an interest in Chinese cartoons.

Bullying ... access to military style guns ... fucked up childhood ..[/quote]

SS, honest question…culture war stuff, what started the discussion here? Obviously you didn’t read the link posted by MTK…where the jump to conclusion was Tucker, GOP, Fox News…blah blah fake news. I could post 10-20 stories, video clips, etc of the narrative.

This narrative is just as poor and frankly dumb as Berkeley drug addict living in the BLM, LGBTQ flagged -out house is maga. You guys fall for it everytime.

I keep hearing people are upset and concerned about division in this country…who continues to be that driver of division?: national corporate media. If you don’t see it by you are a fucking moron. Shouldn’t we all be upset? My take isn’t gay people, my take is incorrect, misinformation narrative. But you know that

Lolololololol…of course pivot to gun control.

[quote=mooby;1330053]Could it be possible his family and fucked up upbringing was a contributing factor?

Nah. Clearly he was indoctrinated by the LBGTQABC's community.[/quote]

Nah, it’s Tucker Carlson right?

Re: The 2nd Amendment Thread
 

I swear, as a society we don't truly mourn the victims of these crimes.

The most important thing always immediately turns to who can we blame for the killings.

Fuck anyone that will kill someone else for any reason besides self-defense.

Heartbreaking for all of these families that had this happen, especially being close to Thanksgiving.

Sounds like this guy should have lost his access to have guns a while ago.

The nut job had threatened to kill his mom a year prior and should not have been able to buy the gun he used. We have laws and they are not enforced.

National corporate media? Idk that sounds like some vague fear mongering boogeyman BS.

berekley guy wasnt clearly driven by far right Q Anon conspiracies?

Relax, smoke a joint, roast a turkey. You seemed a bit extra right now, kinda stressed a bit. I get jacked sometimes as well. It helps me just to say "yup im in a mood right now" and if it takes a few hours or day til I reset, it is what it is.

What happens around the Country tonight doesnt effect your or my life at all. Its only if we let and want that outside noise to come into the sanctity and peacefulness of our home.

half the time I want that outside noise, I seek it out and it gets me all riled up. But its not good for me. Our personal life is already stressful enough. We dont need to add the weight of these national stories to our own shoulders.

Sometimes, I need a break and a reset of what actually matters. Good family, good food, good times.

Im preachy right now .. preaching to myself that I gotta compartamentalize these things and when I do I realize .. tucker carlsons or don lemons take on some drag show isnt even on the list of important things in my life.
