Friend of mine lived on the west edge of this park. gunfire was a nightly occurance. its just a few blocks south of Wichita State University. Not anyplace you want to be at night if you are light complected and not armed.

to the attack, it is irrelevant. as to why she’d be with this guy i the first place, it would explain more and help the police understand how it came to be -random vs otherwise kind of attack.

Interesting observation. I think you are on to something: everyone is avoiding the subject of expanding violence from a particular sector and are turning to online shopping and other techniques to avoid inadvertent contact.

How long before we stay indoors all the time and thugs are the only ones roaming the streets?

Thanks.

We’re almost there already, but I think people will still congregate outdoors where there is sufficient strength in numbers. Much of our urban populations can’t reach many of the areas frequented by whites for leisure (malls being the exception due to mass transit), and the blacks you would encounter in such areas are there for the same reasons you would be.

I remember as child going to various lakes with the family on day trips, and how absolute chaos (not violence, just chaos) would ensue when you would hear the whistles of counselors leading the “urban kids” off buses. Those places used for that have fallen into disrepair or closed as funding dried up, and private clubs have replaced them for many people. Even at the Jersey shore, going to a beach with a slightly higher fee greatly improves the caliber of visitor.

What side would you call me on?

What side would you call my good friend on?

What side will you call my co-worker on?

What side is "our" side?

What side is "our" side?

The poster was clear......

and our side, the side of righteousness and goodness,

If you aren't sure what side you fall on, you're probably not on "ours".

You know what’s odd here?

Until your post, skin color never entered my mind.

I’m obviously never going to fit in.

I clearly did not understand...the post. After re-reading...I get it...It wasn't a skin color thing at all. My fault.

thanks!!

Sorry FRiend.....

I just get racism from blacks, whites, reds, brown's....and such.

I hate racism..with a passion.

I think it's so ridiculous....

I was just having a conversation the other day with someone...where I said...I can never understand people that have been discriminated against...do the EXACT same thing to other people.

I'm part American Indian....and some of the most racist folks I know...are American Indians. Makes no sense............

Sorry for the confusion....

FRegards,

No problem, thanks for the reply.

I must admit it stung a little, and unfairly.

You’ve set it right.
