BUT, But, but.......signs work. Think of the multitudes of mass shootings and killings that were avoided and/or stopped due to a sign.







Yeah....show um' that you're serious. We need more traffic cones.

Link does not work. Leads to a 404 page.

But I used the site search tool to find the same paper. It worked that way. Go figure.

Thanks

How to breed a culture populated by troubled loners:
Moral decline > Family breakdown > Rejection > Isolation > Social media as primary outside contact > Excess MSM ("news") intake > Lifetime of watching depictions of murder > indifferent inner circle/culture > suicidal thoughts > homicidal thoughts > fulfillment of desire to lash out. Rearrange the order to fit.

The progressive left always seeks a physical solution for a spiritual problem. These are wounded souls. The "compassionate" left enables them to fester while profiting from the easily predicted meltdown. Viewership increases mean profit increases. The left responds by making murder with an assault weapon illegal, but does not enforce even that law, continuing the deadly cycle.

Cut the media. Vote the progressives out. Brace ourselves to pay for mental health and new jails. Wounds take time and money to heal.

RAND Study

It is noted that many mass public shooting are directed at "white" people, and as a result, politicians promote gun control legislation. However, by contrast, black people die in large numbers every weekend from shooting, and in far greater numbers than "mass shootings', but no one care if black people die. This happens weekly in Chicago. Just guessing lost of gun control is advocated by racist minded people? The same people that did not want black people to have arms in the 1800s?

Crime is running rampant in Chicago! Therefore, the Illinois government is focusing on the Lake Geneva vicinity.

Nothing like liberal condescension and fantasy facts. And these same idiots campaign for a reduction of man's carbon footprint, for population control. As with genders, these folks want it every which way but loose.

I dunno about that. If you look at the victims, "white's" are actually the far minority. Ie., Uvalde.. only 3 where "white" children. All the others, including the teachers, where of "color".

You can say "black deaths aren't reported" in the media, but I think that's an unfair generalization. IMHO, more accurate would be to say that your run of the mill city violence deaths, by and large, never make the mainstream media without some kind of drama "hook".

Personally, I'm over tired of the whole BLM movement. Don't mouth off, don't run, don't try and fight with the police and I think a far cry fewer LE related shootings against blacks would be happening. Racial profiling isn't good, but then again, it's pretty dang hard to ignore when such a large segment has a deep "criminal culture" and a chip on their shoulders blaming the "white man" as justification instead of taking responsibility for their own lives and actions.

This more relevant than ever. Average homicide suspect in Portland arrested 6 times.. Hmmm gun problem or a weak DA?

Average homicide suspect had been arrested 6 times prior, report says

A new report released Saturday from Mayor Ted Wheeler’s office says that not only have homicides and shootings skyrocketed in Portland since 2019, but that on average, those suspected of comm…

What a kick that report is. Race accounts for the bull of shootings. With blacks having about a 20 % higher shooting that white people. Just looks like black and white shooting crime accounts of the bulk of shooting, but other minorities are represented. That report does not support any form of the ip 17.

That's a fun read. So... 75%+ of the suspects are felons. WHERE DID THEY GET THEIR GUNS?!?!? Hint: not the LGS.

The real proof of their lies is Brazil with it's new gun laws/freedoms! They have almost zero Restrictions, and can even own full auto weapons and large calibers, and there has been one gun range opening per day, every day for the last nearly 4 years!

Their crime rate used to be something like 33% for every 100K, it's now something below 2%! Proof that an armed society is a polite society!

I saw that report as well. I've long supported, "want a low crime, honest and kindness to all society?" Give everyone a gun!
