    Go to any new paper site of a big city and read the crime report or obits and you will see where the scum of the earth live. I read Chicago and Detroit and few people die of old age there, it’s young men and some times women that have been gunned down. They kill each other with out thought of consequence! It is mind blowing to just read and see what really goes on. It never hits the MSM, perhaps the local papers but it is horrific in the big cities.

    I feel sorry for the Police that have to go into those areas…It’s close to a death wish!

    I think it maybe time to disarm the deomcrat, welfare masses… They can’t be trusted to own firearms, they are just too violent. Just look at every democrat held inner city. They are rife with crime and murder. EVERY single blue state and city is a third world country. They pay no taxes and yet they consume the majority of services. They contribute nothing and take everything. They fill your prisons and hospitals and demand more services and entitlements. It’s time to dismantle the lying, killing, evil democrat party and their slaves.

    Baltimore is such a bucket of filth… Most of the population is on welfare and gov’t assistance. They also have incredibly tough gun laws, and yet people get capped there every freaking two minutes. So much for gun laws cutting crime. When are people going to realize it’s not guns, it democrat losers that commit violent crim by almost a 10 to 1 margin. It’s time people start pointing this FACT out. Guns don’t kill people democrats with guns do.

    When you have to take a weapon to a bar, you shouldn’t be going to that bar. The problem is that people when drinking tend to get 10ft tall and bullet proof. That is until the bullets start penetrating them. My prayers go out to the people that were injured and killed. Life is way to short as it is.

    The MSM (aka communists) and their political allies won’t let what happened in Baltimore gets them off their more important topic.
    What da hey..Baltimore is not big deal..You want us to report on this 25/8?
    We have more important fish to fry.. We have dead bodies in AZ that we can use as clubs to beat our opponents (the anti-communists) over their heads with.We can’t use what happened in Baltimore to do the same.
    What, let this good crisis for us (MSM and other assorted comrades) go to waste? Dear leader would get really pissed at us (MSM) if we did so.
    Don’t bother us w/ Baltimore.

    Guns don’t kill people, I agree. But the Nightclub culture is far from healthy. Drunk behavior, sexual motivation, and jealously mixed with pulse pounding music to set the primitive triggers of human nature off. Bad combo anytime and any place. Don’t ban guns. Ban foolish behavior.

    Not sure why this is even a story. Isnt this the norm in most major cities now? I wouldnt be surprised if most of the people involved were either unemployed or on welfare. No job but plenty of free time to go clubbin

      This is just a feeling on my part – we have had the two seperate events in AZ, the mall shooting last week and the house member this week. So, there appears to be a heightened awareness among the nation over anything happening with crooks, guns, and people sadly getting killed.

      I just pray we do not have a rash of copy cat killings or attempted killings.

      Just give the news cycle 24 hours or so…if there is anyway possible the liberal progressives will find some reason to accuse the Right. Chaos by design don’t you know.

      You know the process. The liberal progressives throw accusations out there regardless if they are based on facts or not. They know there are enough SHEEPLE out there that will believe them AND WHO want to be something to be true. That way their actions against the Right are then justified. Afterwards, it there accusations are proven false, the reporting dies down but the objective has already “ACHIEVED”. The whole process feeds upon itself. Not a good scenario. Thank you Van Jones and Bill Ayers. Of course, the liberal progressive types have been telegraphing their plan right before our very eyes in the media. Get ready…Judgement day is coming. Choose this Day Whom You Will Serve.
