I maintain it has NOTHING WHATSOEVER to do with race, but merely with the incidence of violent events occurring at rap concerts versus concerts of 60+ y/o pop singers. If you
want to make it about race, go ahead; but for me, it's strictly about crime prevention and statistics.
But I must admit, the "brisket-sniffing dogs" was pretty funny.

Since half of ugly Babs fans probably have medical devices and implants which would trigger the detectors, they probably didn’t want to bother.

This pol should lose his job if he doesn’t realize and understand the problem of violence in the black community, especially in the hipflop community.

These race mongering fools would do well to hold their tongues until ‘authorities’ start handing out loaded weapons at the gate ... but of course the fools are too dumb to realize these ‘authorities’ are working to prevent thinning of the herd. merely looking at the attendees, the vast difference in demographics, should give any sane person a clue, but of course we’re discussing the liberal progressive mindset, not rational thinking.

You are not allowed to apply common sense in these situations.

What’s Barbra Streisand doing in the USA? I thought she left after Bush stole the election from Gore.

It shouldnt matter if you come by limousine, subway or your own two feet. Hmmm. JayZ fans must have had trouble getting a cab.

That is actually a good point, with the knee replacement/pacemaker crowd slowing things down considerably.

Streisand fans tend to be arrogant, cowardly, sub-human morons who fawn over a bloviating, screeching harpy. They’re often offensive but rarely violent.

The Mayor went to the Streisand concert instead of the Yankee game. All doubt has been erased. He is gay.

I’m down with no security at any rap concert.
To: Tzar
Indeed...great point. I bet most in line there were happy to see heightened security. When everything is race, nothing is race...

Barbara Streisand’s fans are racist.

Wouldn’t be surprised if Jay Z required the metal detectors as part of his contract.
To: Rides_A_Red_Horse
They’re members of the Ku Klux StreisKLANd.

LOL! I thought the same thing. Give them all knives and guns and let the fun begin.
To: Pharmboy
Nevertheless, Brooklyn Councilwoman Letitia James thought the move sends a bad message. ... There shouldnt be a double standard; there should be one rule of law, she said yesterday. If you have metal detectors for people coming to see Jay-Z, the same should apply for Barbra Streisand. It is exactly this sort of top-notch government thinking that has us searching 80 year old white women looking for Muslim terrorists.
