Yeah, that place out 'there'. Anything not really Cambodia related should go here.

gang related, these killings happen all to often,
An 18-year-old gang member has been charged with murdering two teenagers who the authorities said were in a rival gang
very different from a mass shooting of innocent bystanders
100% correct Ricky .... This is a daily occurrence in every inner city in America ... Overwhelmingly black on black so it's ignored until whitey shoots someone. On any given Monday upwards of 30 gang members will have shot each other in Chicago alone, often killing innocent bystanders, but they're almost always black as well so y'all look the other way ... This wholesale slaughter is ignored by the PC mob. Someone mentioning these facts is a racist while someone ignoring the facts is virtuous in character.

Ricky, here you are almost 3 years ago making the same feeble attempt to absolve blacks for killing blacks.

Lots of familiar faces, same bs arguments .... I especially like the guy screaming 'strawman argument' then trots out a story from 50 yrs ago to prove his point hahaha .... I sometimes wonder what attracts a person to live in an alternate reality when this one is infinitely interesting.

Sad. Even old dogs learn new tricks.

Black-on-black violence most certainly occurs, and I don't think anyone would say otherwise. FWIW, I don't think it's ignored, but I don't really think it's the same issue as police brutality. When gangbanger A shoots gangbanger B, he gets arrested and sent to prison. What most (sane) folks are banging on about is when police officers shoot unarmed people (black or otherwise) and aren't held accountable for it. While both scenarios involve violence (generally gun violence) the contexts are quite different. Black-on-black violence seems to get brought up as a counterpoint or a what-about-ism. I rarely see people mentioning it in a way that indicates that they actually care about fixing it. That being said, I hope the 5 black cops who just beat a guy (also black) to death in Memphis get sent to prison for a long time. I'm interested to see how media narrative plays out in this one.

The thing that irritates me is that whenever there's a mass shooting thread, a few people seem to pop up for no other reason than to say "look at how many people black men shoot," even when it doesn't have a goddamn thing to do with the shooting in question.

Maybe I'm just irritated that there are so damn many mass shooting threads. It feels like my country is turning into a warzone.

...Here is white on white shooting, boys...

... I think ... What's the difference, shooting is shooting...?

America is totally fucking insane and it's run by stupid fake senators, sellout congress people, governors who know how to say, "Folks, now let's pray, that's the best we can do. Aww shucks, why not say it? Thanks for buying more guns, it's the price we have to pay for making a few cunts super-rich who get to float in golden parachutes high above all the trailer park pond scum of wacko, deluded ignoramuses whom we, the government of corporate whores, blame for being poor and "inbred" when it's just generational poverty and lack of any chance to get a good education or learn how to eat a healthy diet ever at all...please vote for me, this is a democratic free nation, amen, hallelujah..."

The government of the U.S. is 100% sold out to big money, sucking the rich dick for all they are worth -- !

Kill, kill, kill !!! Utter morons: AmericKens and plastic-Barbies can buy more guns, yippee!!!
