This after 12 people were shot (5 killed) in one day. Surprisingly, this doesn't seem to make the news on certain channels. Throw in Philly, Chicago and all of California and you have the case study on what a Democratic run country will look like.
But, money that was given to the Ukraine is way important. Yeah, lets focus on that.

Both can be problems at the same time.
I also reckon and recall that Orange said he was gonna raise black persons up so much economically that this was all going to decrease.

and it was high last year..The progressive mayor, he's hated by everyone I know, has expressed outrage over a couple comics in a comic division wearing a little black face, while African americans kill African americans in record numbers without a peep from him..He has a black female coming in as the Commissioner of police in February, I wish her well, but fear this is strictly a political stunt..She has 2 yrs experience leading the Portland Oregon police force, comprised of 880 officers; in Philly she'll have approx. 6500.Good chance she will be in way over her head.
Meanwhile the DA is openly critical of police, more interested in prosecuting police than criminals, and hellbent on freeing criminals he perceives were wrongly convicted. He's hate by the officers union,, the FOP,and many officers I know..
Trust me, its a cesspool, these prog/liberal policies have failed everywhere..they are a disaster, big cities are cesspools..
Like Ballimer, the cops are no longer proactive because of the administration and the DA.
Most of it is black on black crime. They just scrape up the losers and attempt to lock up the winners.
I hear the constant complaints about the city. My wife's friend just left after a stay with us. An ex cop who retired early because she saw what was coming. It's comical to get lectured about diversity by Conor for pointing out what a poorly run Democratic city looks like. I grew up and went to school with nothing but diversity but he knows better than everyone on the subject. Idiot.
Neither will address the elephant in the room: the massively disproportionate level of violence and crime among the black population. How can we deal with any of this if we can't even get people to acknowledge the numbers and the fact that there is a subculture that devalues human life and propagates violence? Every week, I can give you a dozen or more incidences of black mob violence, and not just from Baltimore and Philly. How do we talk about the demonization and attacks, literal attacks, on cops if we can't even identify which group is overwhelmingly doing this? How is it that we can't even count on right-wing news sources to ask the most basic question at the hear of this: what's up with this subculture in the black community that rationalizes and denies wildly disproportionate levels of violence, that normalizes hatred of police, that blames violence that can't be discounted on other groups rather than taking responsibility for it?
What do you think the reaction is when for the 100th straight time in Philly that a flash mob descended on a store and grabbed half the merchandise, it was a group of young black folks. yet not a single news source, even the conservative news sources, like Fox, will make the most obvious observation of the one variable that has remained constant through all 100 of them? Or the You guessed it: it stirs up more racial animosity, not less, by pretending not to make the most obvious observation.
If we can't even get Fox News, with its millions of viewers, to ask, "What's up with all this violenceand hatred of cops in the black community," no other major media source, perhaps other than the WSJ, will ask it. They could have a dramatic effect on this debate by having honest reporting on these sorts of incidents that happen left and right in cities across the country each week. They bring on Heather MacDonald. They bring on Victor Davis Hanson. They bring on Larry Elder. All have written about this issue of wildly disproportionate levels of violence within the black community, but I haven't once heard them get a platform to talk about that particular issue on Fox News.
I’m just glad we have you on our side, identifying the “subcultures” and such. Whatever side that is.

It’s not like this is his first bullshit post about “subcultures” that he is monitoring, of course.
He is a holier-than-thou poser, pretending to be above partisanship somehow and look down from his perch on us tribals, when in reality he’s a sad litte insecure bigot.

That 7% of the population commits 50% of the rapes and murders. That 75% of black births are out of wedlock and become fatherless households.
It's real, unpleasant data. We should be working to confront it and stop it rather than look for the nearest white patriarchy symbol to blame for it.
Of all the factors that relate to crime (especially violent crime), poverty is the one that most correlates.

Do you have stats on that?
His response is SOP for shutting down any discussion, nay, any thought about such things.
Try to scare reasonable people off the facts that interfere with their agendas with threats of labeling you as a bigot.
Reinforced by regular people who want these sorts of questions explored.
When some panderer screeches about "mass incarceration" or the "gender pay gap," the facts raised in conflict with the Woke Agenda need to not be accepted as dismissed the first time some apologist races in with unrelated strawman nonsense.
I particularly enjoy how data and statistics are everything to you in some areas, but are to be studiously avoided in others. Would you like to go over the numbers? The more we will dig, the worse it will be.
How do you explain the wildly disproprortionate rates of violence and crime? Conspiracies by law enforcement and the justice system? Poverty?
I just point out when it is shallow and stupid, lest anyone find themselves believing it.
Like, you know, your posts.
No one wants to touch the root cause. Anyone who does would be targeted as a racist. Can you imagine Jesse Jackson and the UnReverend Al Sharpton screaming the streets of Philly if this topic was brought up.
Like clockwork. The big lug. I can always count on him.
Can you imagine a young Republican taking whatever class he teaches? What do you think the over/under is of that kid passing?
Those kids already know coming in that they will be subjected to a lot of partisan claptrap masquerading as actual content. They have far more ability to shape attitudes of average college students who are partially or wholly ignorant of basic civics and history.
Where they probably have the most effect is through grad students. Remember that so many of these people aren't even teaching undergrads in 100 and 200 level classes. They have grad assistants doing that at larger universities, which presents its own problems. Profs have large sway in directing the research of grad students and you wouldn't believe much of the "research" being conducted by grad students in the humanities and social sciences. From these ranks, we get the next generation of "scholars," who themselves help shape public policy. Think about most of the things you hate about our federal government and you can probably trace that policy back to an academic. Take "criminal justice reform," which, as we speak, is releasing sex offenders, spousal abusers and worse into society. Its origins are with "The New Jim Crow" and other tripe from academics in the social sciences.
former policeman, police commissioner/mayor Frank Rizzo...and my wife Now Mr Rizzo , people liked to portray as racist, no he wasn't , he cracked anyone over the head, whether they be black, white, purple or orange who broke the law...Blacks just happen to commit crime, about 4 times as much as their white counterparts, so naturally they got cracked over the head more..Rizzo was a man made for his time, obviously his crime strategy be attacked today, but generally speaking, strong enforcement of the law,as he advocated is what is needed today..And visiting south phiily often, I came to meet blacks who liked Mr Rizzo, and appreciated his effort to keep their neighborhood safe..
We now have had the liberal idea of fighting crime for decades now, maybe the antitheses of Rizzo and a total unmitigated disaster..
You're dead on that his form of policing wouldn't fit this day and age. You have to treat criminals with white gloves these days. The Liberal media is good at twisting any video to meet their narrative.

And no, the issue is not whether President Obama deserved the Nobel Peace prize so early in his administration.
He acknowledged to many how awkward he felt about receiving it.
But, he pulled two consecutive "all nighters" in rewriting his Oslo speech from scratch, continuing to edit on the flight across the Atlantic.
I understand this has little to do with your original post, but the speech reflects what we should expect from a US President, as opposed to divisive posts about a "another well run Democratic City."

Give me a fucking break. And you're right, my post had nothing to do with BHO. The ultimate Whataboutism....
