Chris Matthews on School Shooting: South Africans Wonder ‘What’s With America?’
FinkelBlog ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 05/18/2018 5:21:56 PM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

In the wake of today’s Texas school shooting, Chris Matthews, on his MSNBC show this evening, suggested that South Africans look down on the US, wondering “what’s with America?”

Matthews might have wanted to check his stats before Blaming America First. Intentional homicide rate per 100,000 inhabitants: United States: 4.88, South Africa: 34.27. That’s right: the homicide rate in South Africa is more than seven times that in the US.

Chrissie still has the vapors from the leg tingle incident which makes her substitute hallucinations for reality.

Regarding Tokyo, I bet he would likely not mind living in a society where police can and do give criminal suspects indefinite detentions and can do home searches with little or no notice given in advance. Also, Japan is where it would take American high school mass shooters at least a decade to equal the number of Japanese youths who kill themselves in just one (the times shortly before a school year starts and during the national high school exams are especially bad for Japanese youth suicide).

Japan is also no stranger to instances in which married fathers come home from work to find that the wife has killed both herself and the children.

Chris Matthews on School Shooting: South Africans Wonder ‘What’s With America?’

Funny. I woke up this morning, stretched, pee’d, then wondered what South Africa thought of us.

(not).

Ah, South Africa. Isn’t that where they just passed a law that white farmers had to give their farms to blacks?? Yes indeedy, that’s where I would want to live. America is where the GOOD GUYS get the guns, by law, and nobody can take them away from us. Yes indeedy.

He’s using SA as a comparable? The chances of dying violently there are enormous.

Is he referring to the South African majority that’s about to slaughter the 5 million in the South African minority?

All fans of his need to believe him and move to South Africa.

It is just as he says, a peaceful paradise, all about love and harmony.

I will wave goodbye to them as they sail away.

London got more dangerous when it got more diverse and one could easily draw a connection between those two things.

Black South Africans rape, assault and murder white South Africans daily. Many want them all murdered ASAP. They “wonder”? Please...what complete hippo manure.
