This is the culture of inner city african communities. These are old world tactics brought from deepest africa. Do we accept this culture or demand that laws be enforced. Are we becoming a 3rd world cr*p hole like Zimbabwe? Watch this video.
We haven’t reached a “Turner Diaries” level of society yet...
Did I make the argument that it couldn't?
We lived in Africa for many years.
When we returned to the states our kids ended up in majority (90+%) black public schools. After one of our daughters was bumped (by two black girls fighting each other) and fell down stairs, my wife started questioning our 10 year old son about conditions at school.
“Do the other children respect you?” (He was the only white child in the class)
“Mom, they don’t respect me, they don’t respect the teacher, they don’t respect each other and they don’t respect themselves. Someone ought to put them on a plane and send them back to Africa where they can learn some manners!”
Our children were used to living with Africans who usually behaved in a very civilized manner. Our son was the first white child ever seen in the tribe with whom we lived. At college he was made an honorary member of the African Students Association. He is not in the least “racist”.
BTW, I have heard his sentiments echoed by recent Black immigrants from Africa.
Much of the cohesive, moral framework of American Black culture has been destroyed by government programs. These recent “Flash Mobs” are the product of the “Great Society” programs, Affirmative Action, a lack of equal accountability, and an “I get a free pass because of racism” mentality.
It is the result of 50 years of government & society reinforcing the worst aspects of a CULTURE.
IT DOES NOT RELATE TO SKIN PIGMENTATION!
You asked if they knew any better. I simply pointed out that it doesn't matter.
We've reached the point where certain protected groups may not be spoken of in a critical manner ("hate" speech, you called it).

No, it is not possible. As long as folks insist on identifying themselves primarily by skin color, and demanding special treatment because of skin color, and maltreating other folks because of skin color, there will be no end to racism.
Today, it seems to me, the folks most obviously engaged in self-identification by skin color and demanding of special treatment are the descendents of Africans of various tribes who were sold into slavery in Africa, by other Africans, and then transported to these United States. The worst racists I see, nearly the only racists I see, are 'black'. From 'Black Studies' in universities to 'black history month' to 'kwanzaa' to incessant demands for 'reparations' to 'black anger' to black criminal flash mobs, for these folks life is all about taking whatever they feel they want it, whenever they want it, and killing anyone who might appear to impede them. They're not rational, and they cannot be dealt with rationally.
Lethal force is the only option.
Flash Mob meets Mr. 1911 .45. One or two of those instances the flash mob will cease to exist.

That's an ENORMOUSLY important point. The urban American 'blacks' engaged in the sort of racist criminal violence we're talking about have been brought up wrong and trained to do worse, over multiple generations. It's not a genetic problem; they're people, not animals. It's a culture problem, and their culture is terminally degraded.
I know a lady whose family were merchants in Kenya. They got out and came to the US precisely because of skyrocketing crime of this nature. And now the thugs have a high-tech assist.
I think it was in the DC area or NY City.
In other words it's an inevitable product of rampant Liberalism.
True. A more rational approach would probably be to just hire an off duty cop to act as security for awhile til the “youths” decided to move on to another area. You can get a cop for about $20-$25 per hour which is cheap compared to 10-12 “youths” stealing $500-$800 or so in clothing in one strike.
baraq promised to spread the wealth around. Makes things better for everyone. holder makes the statement that the DOJ will not prosecute “his people”. Now holder is going after big city police departments. All this violence over the weekend looks to be very well coordinated. baraq’s election team heavily used social media, acorn and seiu to get him to the white house.
Based on the history of the baraq team, this looks to be a planned course of action. Expect more. Follows the cloward/piven idea. Overwhelm the system.
RN, you're a compassionate and caring person, so I'll be gentle about this. The law-abiding, and decent people aren't the oddballs - they actually make up the bulk of the black community.
Perhaps a person would have to live there to see what I see, but I assure you that the hoodlums, punks, and criminals who make the headlines are the real minority among blacks. Most blacks are doing their best to get by, and live their lives the best way they know how. Some do better than others, and some do extremely well. Many others have fallen through the cracks, and are lost.
One thing that I will readily admit to, is the fact that a higher percentage of blacks have been degraded to the level of criminality and gov't dependency, than in other racial groups across the country. There's just no denying that.
The real outliers in the black community are conservatives, such as those people you named above. People of that caliber amount to about 8% of the black population.
If the country were in better condition, I might have enough free attention to take a hard look at the current state of the black community, and propose some solutions to what ails them. The short answer, of course, is that blacks (as a whole) would experience an exponential increase in their survival potential if lots more of them came over to our side. That's going to take a sustained campaign of enlightenment and education for that to occur. Thanks for the compliment. Much appreciated.
Ironically, many (way more than 8%) of blacks in the US have a “conservative” viewpoint on the issues. They just think that all republicans are “racist” because that’s what their leaders tell them 24/7/365.
Yep. And that's why we can expect more of this behavior. There's simply no consequences. The cops are overburdened. The courts and jails are packed full. The stores will simply pass the costs of theft off onto those suckers who still pay for merchandise.
This being said, dropping a few of them where they stood and getting away with it might, just might, encourage more civilized behavior among their friends and acquaintances.
And Jerome Ersland will get a cellmate.
I’d take the 5-800 dollar hit over paying someone 160-200 a day to guard the store. I guard it myself for the most part.
I’m pretty safe, while I have items here that are worth north of 1000 bucks, they are either 4-600 pounds or need special packaging to bring them home. you can’t just stuff them in your pocket and carry them out and having anything worth anything by the time you get out to your car and away.
Fatherlessness is the crux of the problem. You could eliminate most fatherlessness by...
1. Banning divorce for couples with minor children, unless there is clear fault involved (drug use, violence, etc.)
2. Forcing unmarried mothers to relinquish their children for adoption upon giving birth.
Of course, I don’t believe either idea will be ever be implemented.
