Breitbart ^ | 07/20/2023 | AWR HAWKINS

CNN cited a study from Tulane University Wednesday and claimed “structural racism” may be behind mass shootings in large cities like Chicago and Milwaukee.

CNN leaned on the study to point out “mass shootings in major metropolitan areas…disproportionately affect black people.”

They quoted the Tulane researchers indicating, “Racial and ethnic minority populations are significantly more likely to be victims of (mass shootings).”

The “structural racism” today is discrimination against whites and asians in education and employment.

We have had almost sixty years of this garbage.

Enough is enough.

Hey! Hey! Hey! I just read in the USToday rag that violent crime is declining in the big cities! Somebody is lying here! Violent crime is declining in big cities because the RAT politicians are downgrading violent crimes to petty misdemeanors and allowing the criminals to roam the streets without any fear of a cop showing up while they do their dirty deeds. So, if violent crime is decreasing, why the hell is the government still trying to confiscate the firearms of law-abiding Americans? Hmmmmmm?

Lol. I’m sorry but if I were black, I’d be so pissed off at how weak and unable to do for themselves the media paints them. It is so insulting.

The urban landscape is the new Plantation.
The slaves harvest votes, not cotton.
The Plantation masters are white Democrat.
The black myor and administrators are the House ni**ers.
Al Sharpton is just another porch ni**er.

Change my mind.

They have floated climate change and interstate highways ramps as major causes of poor living conditions and crime in black neighborhoods. It just needs more rebranding and wordsmithing to stick.

“Racial and ethnic minority populations are significantly more likely to be victims and perpetrators of (mass shootings).”

An urban youth can make big money selling drugs, but you gotta keep competitors from encroaching on ‘your turf’.

What isn’t racist is climate change, the worst is the climate induced racism.

Let’s see. Who could it possibly be?

Ethnic minorities like Koreans, wait no no no.

How about Malaysians? Well that’s not it either.

Maybe ethnic Kurds? They’re an ethnic minority oh wait not them.

Humm, whomever could they be talking about?

Lincoln freed the slaves from the plantations. LBJ managed to herd their descendants back.

Slavery was a real bad idea. It has cost American taxpayers about $1000 per pound of cotton.


Yes, it was, but cotton was not the reason for slavery in the U.S. Cotton didn’t become a major cash crop until after the importation of slaves became illegal. Nearly all of the slave ancestors of black Americans were here before 1808.

The ‘racist’ Founders said that Congress couldn’t ban the importation of slaves for twenty years after the Constitution’s ratification. Those same ‘racist’ Founders banned importation the minute the Constitution allowed it. What’ more the ‘racist’ Founders banned slavery in the Northwest Territories even before the Constitution.

But once cotton production got going, the slave owners were making so much money off of it, that they were willing to start a war to keep making that money.

Quotes:

South Africa gun crime: ‘Every night there are bullets’

I’ve lived here for many years, when we report it the police don’t come. They say this is a no-go area because of how dangerous it is.

Last year, several robberies were reported at police stations around the country where hundreds of firearms were stolen.

“It’s not a problem with civilian or private or lawful gun ownership. It’s a problem with organised crime getting their on the hands on those type of weapons,” said Damian Enslin, who chairs the South African Gunowners Association
