There seems to be an increase in such incidents in both frequency and intensity. Merely a casual observation-not-a scientific study.

That girl there is a real representation of a traditional liberal media tool, an ideal useful idiot, who still hasn’t the experience to think on her own, as witnessed by her having to read what was put in front of her.

When blacks commit crimes that involve other blacks, it's because...they've been victims of the system which favors whites,

So black on black crime is really just another form of white on black crime. That makes sense. Now I must disengage my brain from "liberal" mode; I'm getting a headache.

how many black’s have won the nobel prize?

Is that a leading question? If so, I can't say that I care for the direction it's headed.

Likely shot by an emboldened Neighborhood Watch captain.

Is that a booger or a nose ring? I always confuse the two.

I’m guessing that this is another tragic instance of black on black crime. I’m also guessing that this will not dominate the news cycle for a month or two.

I am not guessing. That's the job for the terminally ignorant with an agenda.

I am wondering why, in an atmosphere of racial hostility fostered and fueled by the race pimps with the complicity of the MSM, race is not mentioned.

The first few times I saw this I thought it was amusing. The next hundred times I thought it was getting kind of tedious. But now it’s neither funny or clever, nor anything else, really.

Things would get better if a number of ccw folks opened up on a herd of rampaging blacks and took them down. The others would start thinking twice before acting like savages towards the rest of their fellow citizens.

Then you must be very weary of “boating trips” on the banglist threads...

Come to think of it, maybe what we need is an Amish Fishing Company... ;)
