So..... now we can say science based facts that yes its gang warfare and black on black crime that's driving the majority of these "firearm homicides"?

But... thats... rascist!

 

[Alexx1401]

Well what a shock. Criminals are MUCH more likely to be victims of violent crime. So what is the answer from so many law makers? Lets make laws aimed at those who are not criminals.

REALLY

 

[WillametteWill]

In Portland, homicide victims average:
8.1 prior arrests
3.9 felony arrests
58.8% have been on probation or parole
45.1% have been incarcerated
43.1% have been convicted of a felony

So, you know, just like your neighbors in Mayberry.

Interestingly, the percentages for victims are slightly higher than for suspects. This is a 2019-2021 independent study from a group with funding from Everytown, Arnold Ventures (not gun friendly) DOJ, and a host of progressive cities...so no, not cherry-picking "right wing" sources.

If it was not for all the innocents who so often seem to get caught in the cross fire these scum would actually be doing tax payers a favor. Eliminate those who do not want to live in society.

So…. "following the science" shows that by and large, this is eventually a self-correcting problem… I say give them even more guns to speed up the process because they can only breed so fast…. it's simple maths.

Well, it's a good thing the keep getting released from incarceration. They'd probably get stabbed in prison. And then this country would magically have a knife crime crisis.

Seriously. In prison, who gets stabbed with a knife ? A toothbrush, a pen, toilet paper...

Well , I reckon there are far fewer shootings in prison. So perhaps the demographic of which we are speaking is actually safer inside.

I have suggested they take them out to the artillery range here and let them have at each other out there where no one else can get hit. Then they could send in some shells at the ones still standing.

Give them free classes in marksmanship. Too many are only wounded and we end up paying their medical bills. This would also reduce innocent bystanders getting hit.

Better yet. Do the French foreign Legion method. Give them a chance for freedom if they volunteer to go off and do war things... under CIA so as not to get the US accused as usual of committing war crimes

Edit. Actually... drop them into Colombia or Mexico to fight it out against the Cartels....

Or do like in 1980 when Cuba emptied its prisons and insane asylums and put them on boats to the US. And we accepted them!

It's well worth getting a few illegals who know how to vote

Most Cuban American voters identify as Republican in 2020

Nationwide, 58% of Cuban registered voters say they affiliate with or lean toward the Republican Party, while 38% identify as or lean Democratic.

Hell they'd get along fine there.. probably find new employment opportunities.

Exposed-- They're importing illegals to fight WW 3?

Exactly - just like the nearly zero attempts to fight illegal drug trafficking.

I mean why stop the average of 100K drug related deaths per year in the US to help eliminate 'problems'...

Interrupting the process of natural selection is of epidemic proportions these days…. for the love of a strong gene pool, STOP that!
