Guns and blacks, especially blacks marinated in the African-American culture of taking offense, are not a good combination.
Blacks tend to be more “into the moment” than other races. It’s a big part of why they are so mediagenic on average compared to other people. A downside of being into the moment is the moment can last the rest of your life if there are guns around.
Are the Democrats going to run on any issues this year other than hatred for Emmanuel Trumpenstein? Hillary was into gun control last time, which definitely didn’t help her in the Deer Hunter states like Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin. As I wrote in 2016:
The problem for the Democrats that they always run into when they get excited about gun control is that:
– They want to take handguns away from dangerous urban minorities.
– They will never ever admit that’s what they want to do.
So whenever the Democrats start talking about gun control, they end up going on and on about how the real threat is all those evil redneck white males with their scary rifles.
They just can’t help themselves.
And then they lose the election.
Joe Biden, age 77, isn’t the sharpest nominee in the toolshed, but he’s probably not as stupid as Hillary in 2016.
Appreciate hearing from others, but I’ve noticed media trend on the Internet lately that I don’t think is random. It’s articles that say, “I’m black and I bought a gun for the first time.” After that the articles can branch off into the need for a gun for protection from racists or a discussion that gun control laws were originally passed to deny blacks their 2nd Amendment rights. Anyone else notice this?
I, too, would like to hear from anyone who may have read the same or similar item, and, unlike me, had the stomach to finish it.
"Black Americans Now Account for the Highest Increase In Gun Sales of Any Demographic"
https://www.blackenterprise.com/black-americans-now-account-for-the-highest-increase-in-gun-sales-of-any-demographic/
That seems to be the standard narrative from MSM.
No, you have to defend the Second Amendment on the grounds that the original gun controllers did so explicitly to disarm Blacks (the horror!) and therefore something something racist.
The flip side of the lefty anti gun types is that second amendment defenders always try to bring up Blacks when everyone (*everyone*) knows they're defending White rights. They'd be better off acknowledging it and moving on.Replies: @Sandmich
Of course, conservatives are going alone with it, because they're dumb. It's part of the based black man phenomenon, where conservatives play identity politics by surrogate - he's a CivNat like all good white Americans, but based black man can have a gun and talk about what's good for his people, the Arab business owner can put up a "minority owned" sign so his business doesn't get set on fire (ignoring the obvious implication that white owned businesses are fair game), Jews can have his ethnostate, and of course the blonde bimbo can wear a MAGA hat and a bikini while she shoots an AR-15.
1. Blacks should not be allowed to own guns for their own good as they can't be trusted to behave responsibly.
2. Blacks should be allowed to own guns, whether they have been convicted of a felony or not, so that they kill each other and thin out the herd (culling especially the more violent ones).
The divide is not so much on liberal vs conservative. It is more statist vs liberatarian. And of course, if you don't live in a black neighborhood, you will not care as to whether blacks are armed or not.Replies: @John Johnson
Ultra-liberal former mayor of Cincinnati, Jerry Springer, would be horrified if someone accused him of being a racist. But when’s the last time he had a white guest on his show? All these limo libs reveal their understanding that TV’s a visual medium, and nothing’s more histrionic than Shaniqua wrestling the weave off LaSondra’s head.
Daytime and syndicated TV these days is like taking a trip to Nairobi.
Another thing I've noticed is the game show "Family Feud," which is now apparently filmed in Atlanta. I only ever catch pieces of it when it's on at the gym, but it seems like almost every episode features a white family versus a black family. It is so consistent that it's hard to imagine it being anything other than intentional.
More white racism.
Any European country that lets Africans have close proximity to complicated stuff like blue steel, well-oiled revolvers or automatics is just pouring temptation all over ’em. Whitey’s fault again.
Reparations! For centuries of being around guns. Once blame whitey starts it never ends.
Honest, that really happened. Maybe someone can remember who the idiot was.
Well actually the USA has the 4th lowest murder rate in all of the Americas, both North and South … only Canada, Chile and Cuba are lower
And most of those higher-rate murder countries throughout the Americas, have stricter ‘gun control’ laws, such as Mexico whose murder rate has been 3x the USA. Even countries people think of as ‘peaceful’ such as Costa Rica, has a murder rate 2.5x the USA.
The moral is that, once a society tips over into a certain level of violence – which seems to be associated with multi-ethnic roots, more than poverty – the guns actually prevent a lot of crime
Consider Brasil, where Bolsonaro’s combination of tougher, go-ahead-and-shoot-the-bad-guys policing, plus more liberal, easier gun ownership, has been reducing the massive violent crime in Brasil
It is clearly not the guns. In continental Europe – tho most Americans don’t know it, confused and misled by Britain’s 1990s confiscation of all handguns – there are tens of millions of legally-owned civilian handguns, shotguns and rifles, tho not the ‘carry’ laws like in the USA.
And although having the 2nd highest continental rate of gun ownership in the world, Europe is the continent with the lowest murder and crime rates … tho that has been climbing along with diversity
White Americans, despite all their hundreds of millions of guns, have overall a murder rate not far from that of white Europeans
BTW, in places like Austria or the Czech Republic you can carry a concealed pistol with you, and in practically 100% of the continent you can register as a hunter and get a smoothbore rifle the day after.And in theory the smoothbore rifle is only good for taking out vermin, but in practice there's always some AK-47 based badass option such as some new types of the Russian Saiga, and cheap Turkish knockoffs such as the KRAL XP. The Serbs I think also make stuff like that.And usually after a set number of years of owning a smoothbore without problems, you then get to progress to dandy Mossbergs and sheit.However. Yes in Europe you generally have to:
a) Provide documentation that's you're neither insane nor a jailbird
b) Register in a hunting or sporting club (or provide self-defense reasons)
c) Undergo official training
d) Accept random checkups on the state of your weapons once a year or along those lines. Although in many places this is done through lazy phonecalls and then people pretending there was a thorough check.However, if a citizen is capable of handling the paperwork, they do indeed get rewarded with some semi-AK rifle should they be so inclined. But an "easy impulse buy" it ain't.Replies: @JMcG, @Joe Stalin
No, they want to take away long guns from white men, so that if they get uppity they can send them to the gulag. The pretext used is not necessarily a wrongful death from a rifle.
My Father did his medical internship in a Southern big city hospital and worked ER shifts. There were few guns around then. People fought and murdered with knives. Same demographics. Only change, with todays trauma medicine, knives may actually be more deadly than guns. But knives are far less likely to injure bystanders. The evolution of the drive-by shooting – not a new phenomenon, but certainly a new style – is definitely not among the high points of our civilization.
Hispanics are no slouches either as far as living in dream time while on drugs and drink. Living in the moment. The greater the indigenous component, the more potential for senseless, violent crimes that are easy to solve and prosecute. Putting them in prison for a decade on up. I am talking within the USA.
Just look at the murder rates in Mexico and Central America. In their drug gang wars they take delight in killing and torture.
Yeah. It’s a bit like a lot of new White gun buyers I suspect, we’ll talk about racists, but we really mean Criminal Blacks. But that’s not permissible to say.
Back a couple of decades ago, British criminologist Colin Greenwood observed that you were more likely to be stabbed in Britain,but you were more likely to be stabbed to death in America. So the American underclass is harder working than the British one?
All kidding aside, the British stabbers are probably drunk and lashing out wildly, while the Americans are probably using the knife with literally deadly intent.
Meanwhile, clips about gun discipline in Mali:
‘I do not wish blood to be shed’: Mali president resigns after being detained in military mutiny
“How does Kalash sound” (Also a guy racking the slide for the audio effect, which is new practice)
Is this “really” true?
Isn’t that what they REALLY want?
It’s like colonialism: you “really” want to bring peace and prosperity to the wild, ignorant locals, but what you REALLY want is to give United Fruit Company a secure holding area. Any “oops, sorry, this is not what I really wanted” coming later is a bit disingenuous. Especially if someone kept the meeting minutes.
In a real revolutionary situation, it is indeed those deer rifles that will be needed. Handguns are used about as much as kung fu in actual combat.

It’s not their culture its their nature. African-American culture once did the heavy lifting to prevent them being violent. Blacks are in a society of white people who tend to have internal controls on behavior and don’t really need strong societal prohibitions on being vicious. So as the US has become a permissive society relying on innate self control more than culture, black men increasingly fell into the gangsta Big Man lifestyle. They see whites as effete.
Sure, but take away the guns and we’ll end up with machetes, though this gem convinced me these are the White and hispanic weapons of choice rather than the more common usage one hears of in news reports from the dark continent.
The American murders rate pales into insignificance when compared to that in South Africa, with a population of 59 million (as compared to America’s 330 million) our feral anthropoids kill about (accurate figures are not published by the police here) 60,000 people a year, using mainly knives, bricks and stones and other blunt instruments. A lot of guns does not lead to a high murder rate, a lot of blacks does.
In Philadelphia, Black Police Commissioner Danielle Outlaw is calling for stricter gun laws. Of course, she doesn’t mention that the rising carnage is due to people who look like her. Once again, blame the guns and not the shooters. By the way, how are those tough gun laws working in Chicongo?
Any idea if it’s a great gentrification tool? I mean, how many blacks got convicted with possessing an illegal firearm and thus freed up valuable real estate? Is it more strategic to clear out a bad neighborhood with gun laws or drug laws?

There was very brief period of time, perhaps 30 years ago, where I kinda, sorta believed that this was the unspoken, but pervasive motivation, behind the Democrats relentless obsession to abolish the Second Amendment. That belief quickly evaporated once I began to focus my full attention on these anti-Gun, anti-Second Amendment, anti-individual rights to a means of self protection promoting leftist politicians.
These leftists do not give two squirts of rat manure about blacks committing crimes with firearms, primarily because the self-hating White and jewish liberal elites who constitute the 'establishment' of the Democrat Party know they can't risk expressing any open criticism of blacks who misuse firearms for criminal acts because that would draw attention to the fact that America does not have a 'gun' problem; it has a problem with allowing blacks to own guns. Conceding this point - would mean they would be admitting that the White racialist, pro-Second Amendment right has been right all along.
But, taking this issue a step further - and examining the increasingly vitriolic level of race hatred that the left has begun to spew at White Americans - and White males of Southern heritage being their most fervently hated & relentlessly demonized demographic group - coupled with the recent radical shift and total embrace of totalitarian Communism - the elite leftist establishment view White males as their biggest enemy, because White males with firearms would be who would be most willing to use those firearms to circumvent the left's desire to stage a repeat of the 1917 Bolshevik Communist revolution and takeover of the United States.
Law abiding White males are who the left wants most to disarm. This was the unspoken motivation behind the left's pathological obsession to get these 'red flag' laws passed. They have been frustrated by the fact that White males are so infuriatingly law abiding - that they are hard pressed to use existing laws to disarm men who commit very few criminal acts. But, the totalitarian left knows that these law abiding White males have political opinions that do not conform to the leftist's agendas - so, they want to be able to use red flag laws to disarm White males who express political opinions that are not 'Politically Correct' and claim that expressing those opinions makes that White male a threat to society.
The end game has already been exposed by discussions I've seen among these Democrat Communist White race hating politicians. They want to use 'hate speech' laws to trigger these red flag, midnight SWAT Team raids on the homes of Whites who dare to express racially realistic opinions.

Wrong. Biden already said he’s coming for your guns:
https://dailycaller.com/2019/08/05/biden-going-to-come-for-guns/
Tough call, Steve. Joe Biden may not be as stupid as the Hildabeast was in ’16, but he is more demented. He may blurt our something about “this is why we need to take the guns …” too quickly for his handlers to activate the shock collar. You can’t take him anywhere.
To NJTC, the NRA has been drilling that point in for years. There are plenty of blacks who could use a self-defense gun badly. I don’t know how much training they do though.
On the last thread, I posted that the under-35s I know are very hard left. However, one thing I will say is that they don’t drone on about guns. That seems to be more an obsession of older white leftists. In fact, a lot of Antifa are rather pro-gun in their way.
We have to hope Biden goes after guns. Somebody should bait him. If the gun issue were taken away, Republicans would be in a bad spot. I don’t think Democrats would ever reverse themselves, but if they just stop talking about it, that would be bad for team elephant. In the past, they have used it to help turn out the base, but now Orange Man Bad is all they need for voter turnout.
That’s the only thing Dullberg got right; take guns away from ‘duh-versities’.

Robert F. Williams was a black labor organizer in the early 1960s. He got a charter from the NRA to set up a rifle club in Monroe, SC for blacks to arm against the Klan. He followed that up with a book, “Negroes with Guns” which had a big impact on the Black Panthers. Williams was in Cuba for a stint and during the 1962 missile crisis he broadcast over Radio Free Dixie to encourage Black American soliders to revolt against their officers.
Williams was a guy ahead of his time.

NJ, yes. Maybe in the last two weeks, probably a syndicated opinion piece run in one of my local papers. Don’t have a citation.

Central American countries have few Blacks and even fewer guns in civilian hands, and their murder rates are astronomical, as is Mexico’s. USA murder rate in the 50’s was maybe 1000 people a year, very little of it Black on Black crime.
There is no evidence that Blacks + guns automatically equals crime, but a lot of evidence illegitimacy and drugs automatically equal crime.
And even more evidence that without a functioning legal presence to fairly, but ruthlessly, enforce laws, you can pretty much count on a high crime rate.

Top NYT comment: Alt-right gunmen bring violence to Portland ‘Floyd vigils’
If people really cared about black lives, there would be stop-and-frisk in every city in America, and black people would be calling for it the loudest.
My personal favorite is how Chicago likes to blame looser Indiana gun laws for the fondness of black city residents for mowing down those that have offended them, and anyone else standing nearby. Somehow the fact that Chicagoans of other varieties apparently do not use the same strategy to settle disputes never gets mentioned.
Don’t overestimate how much knowledge and logical thinking goes into their political beliefs. Going after “evil redneck white males” isn’t displacement. It’s an end in itself.
White males proles are The Bad Guys. Air should be illegal if they breathe it. Gun-grabbers tend to hate other white-prole class markers too, usually on similar grounds (e.g. big pickup trucks kill pedestrians and destroy the environment). “Gun violence” is just a particularly easy blood libel to demonize them.
We struggle to figure out the logical connection, because we know that “gun violence” is primarily a black urban underclass thing. But most gun-grabbers do not know this. Whether it’s true or not doesn’t even arise. Orwell’s “protective stupidity” kicks in. It sounds racist! and is therefore unthinkable.
They might, at best, contrive a way to blame it on The Bad Guys (e.g. Chicago’s gun crime is really Indiana’s fault). The explanation it doesn’t have to make sense or fit all the available facts. It just has to sound good enough, at a very superficial level, to silence any doubts and preserve the crimestop.
Even if they did acknowledge black urban underclass gun crime, it’s not obvious they’d genuinely care about it enough to want to stop it. They’ll use it to pad the “gun violence” numbers, but so long as black crime stays out of their neighborhoods and doesn’t affect them, meh.

America doesn’t really have a high murder rate. The murder rate is 4.9 per 100,000. That’s in the same range as Western European countries. Eastern European countries, like Russia and Ukraine, have higher rates:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_intentional_homicide_rate
Vietnam… 1.51
Kyrgyzstan… 2.19
Rwanda… 2.52
Angola… 4.85
USA… 4.96
Mongolia… 6.19
Ukraine… 6.20
Russia… 8.21
Saint Pierre et Miquelon (the most racially European islands on planet Earth)… 15.91
^ That ranking does not bode well for white nationalism. (Keep in mind that Ukraine, Russia, the USA and Saint Pierre are all much, much older and more geriatric than those Asian and African countries on that list.)
And, in fact, the murder rate in America today is about half of what it was in 1979. In 1980, 23,000 people were murdered, when the population was 226 million. In 2019, just 16,000 people were murdered. The population that year, not including millions of illegals, was 328 million. Boomers and Gen X were the actual terrorists.. Not black people.
During this time period, the black population remained stable, healthy, youthful and vibrant, the brown population increased sharply, and whites aged, stagnated, mildewed, and are now about to start shrinking, due to the infertility of their womenfolk.
In the USA, the suicide rate significantly exceeds the murder rate:
Although neither could be called crises, over 40,000 suicides vs 16,000 murders begs the question: why is the alt-right incessantly complaining about the black murder rate of this country? It’s a losing position that has never been met with even the faintest hope of political or social success. In my opinion, the alt-right fails to tackle the suicide rate because they know that the US suicide rate boils down primarily to firearms and toxic white culture, which means the Left was right. Gun ownership, alcohol and individualism (the last tenets of white “culture” to survive in to the 21st century) really are more dangerous to your health than negroes, who most white people do not live in close proximity to.
So we’re kind of in this awkward situation where we’re stuck between taking the red pill, and actually admitting that there is no murder problem, or staying on the blue pill and continuing to complain about the non-existent black-on-white murder phenomenon, which is a losing position that has accomplshed nothing despite 30 years of complaining about it online.
Honesty, it has been said, is the best policy. My way of thinking says it’s time to admit that we don’t care about dead people we neved met, and so we should stop incessantly complaining about these non-issues online, in the attempt to build political momentum to get black people deported or exterminated from North America (an objective that can never be accomplished by political means).

That is not a bet I would take. Biden has been quite strident about his plans to disarm Americans. Even The Washington Post came out and said his plan would be “terrible for working class firearms owners”.
If you believe blacks have a right to self-defense, then you disagree with Justice Taney. But he thought they didn't have any right to be here at all, i.e., they were by definition illegal aliens.Just about all "working class" in the District, firearms owners or otherwise, are black.
Dick Heller was very unusual, and the last choice for the lawyers taking his case before the Supreme Court. The other appellants were black, mostly female, and thus more optically desirable. But they didn't have "standing", as they were not turned down for permit applications. They hadn't bothered to apply at all. Why bother?
Actually, Dems want to take guns away from every American except for the members of the elites security details.
Rosie O ‘Donnell comes to mind here.
I’ve rummaged through some crime statistics for England and Wales and as far as I can see homicide rates in metropolitan zones there do not differ much from those in non-metropolitan zone. If I’m not mistaken, the homicide rate for non-metropolitan counties in the U.S. is about 2.5 per 100,000 (lower in New England and the Rustbelt). I think it’s roughly half that in England and Wales in non-metropolitan zones and in line with what you might see in Eastern Europe in comparable areas. Might have to do with guns or it might have to do with culture.
Most of the difference in homicide rates between the U.S. and European countries is to be found in the slums. About 10% of our population lives in urban segments where the homicide rate exceeds 30 per 100,000. Reducing it to about 12 per 100,000 is a feasible social project. About 1/3 of the homicides which occur in this country (more in the future) are the low hanging fruit that can be suppressed with more vigorous policing.
NB, in the U.S. up until recently, you’ve been less likely to be burgled and far less likely to have your car stolen than in England and Wales. The distinction between the two was in the realm of violent crime, and the distinction is much more pronounced for homicide than it is for robbery or (IIRC) sexual assaults.
What I'd like to see is crime statistics broken down by congressional district. See how they correlate with not only party, but votes on individual issues. E.g., with NRA and NumbersUSA grades.

I wonder if that culture hasn’t always been there. I’ve always heard there were a lot of murders and violence in the Black community that went unrecorded back in the old days.
But then, the Really Smart people said it was time to push desegregation, and so now this violence gets foisted on the rest of us. How many rapes, murders and molestations did the Clever Clique give us?
But they score awfully high on standardized tests, so I guess that makes it okay.

Democrats don’t care about crime control and if they had their druthers would do not a damn thing. You’re learning that right now. Crime control means punishing their clientele rather than plying them with bon bons.
For people like BO, sticking the bill for urban crime with your social enemies is the whole point of the gun control discourse. Acknowledging that the slum population would benefit from good incentives and vigorous aversives is something they don’t do. The only acceptable arguments about social policy are those that justify hiring more social workers and school administrators.
To be charitable, lets posit Nelson Shields and Sarah Brady actually did care about crime control. Both were tools. Read their personal accounts of why they were doing what they were doing and you see (1) an intelligent man who blamed inanimate objects and Harlon Carter because that was socially acceptable and blaming the white-hating hoodlum who murdered his son at random was not; and (2) a schoolmarm pest whose response to a friend of hers being careless with his weaponry was not to ream out the man but to propose other people go through a lot of wheel-spinning to assuage her anxieties.
It’s kind of like how the US has the highest incarceration rate in the world. We have enough money to build lots of prisons and a significant criminal underclass.
Norway has lots of money to build prisons, but not much of a criminal class (so far), while the Central African Republic doesn’t have any money to lock up its many criminals.

Why?
It would require them to think, say, and then believe: “It’s a really bad idea to have handguns in the hands of urban black American youth who are (a) completely in the thrall of gang/rap/yo’ mama/anti-white/anti-school culture and (b) have a lethal combination of low IQ and low impulse control.”
It’s about as likely as me playing 2nd base for the Philadelphia Phillies.
Urban blacks seem to have no problem in attaining ammunition. Out here in the exurbs we do. Why is that? Now with the left’s social worker – anger management strategy for urban crime, seems like the Democrats actually want the black murder rate to go unabated.
White gun owners expend a lot of ammunition in target practice. Urban blacks get in all their target practice on each other. Someone who goes to a range may shoot up two or three 50-round boxes of ammo in one session. That could rack up quite a body count in the inner city, even with poor marksmanship.Replies: @Rob McX

“Black Americans Now Account for the Highest Increase In Gun Sales of Any Demographic”
https://www.blackenterprise.com/black-americans-now-account-for-the-highest-increase-in-gun-sales-of-any-demographic/
While the D’s emphasis on whites over blacks in gun control arguments is partially like this for these reasons, there is also the communist agenda of disarming the white populace of America so that more top-down controls can be instituted. This goes back to other lefty-push cultural ideas, such as the old war on the KKK.
During the 1950s-80s there was a huge cultural push against the KKK, and prodding the FBI into going after the group and disintegrating it. Now, part of this was Catholics, Jews, blacks using their new found national power and alliance to attack the ostensibly anti-Catholic, anti-Jewish, and anti-black organization, and part of it was the push against segregation, but there was a much more sinister and secret aspect.
The Klan was a strongly anti-Communist organization with political power who often harassed commies and ferreted out or accused people communist agents when they could. The Commies sought to disrupt anti-Communist organizations and make them unpalatable. “Racism” became the way to do it.
This was a period where even comic books pushed storylines against the Klan; Superman had a famous run fighting them. The cultural Left went out to make them unpalatable.

Steve, you are about 30 years behind the times. This was true for Joe and a few other Democrats who have long since left power. The people rising to power in the party today without question want to disarm rural and suburban whites. Some want to take handguns away from urban blacks, but many of the new breed would consider that racism and would only lightly enforce extreme gun controls laws against urban blacks.
1. Eliminate guns by outlaweing them
2. Start reparations so that People of Color can share some of the white wealth gained through perfidy
3. revamp the history curriculum so that REAL history is taught and not whitewashed eurocentric evil
4. DO NOT VOTE Republican. to vote republican is to vote for voter suppression, support for the white supremacist russia, racism, sexism, homophobia and evil
5. celebrate diversity
6. stop restricting immigration
Well, as a black man…
I have to ask…
Who owns the hollywood and music media? Who owns the media companies that create the culture that indoctrinates black youth?
Why do democrats constantly put people who destroy cities, education and critcal thinking in power?
Which “race” is responsible for:
The holocaust
Nuclear War
World War 1 and 2
Slavery
Private Central Banking Cartels
The pedophile rings in hollywood and around world
Debt Slavery
The Vietnam War
The Korean War
The CIA funded war against drugs
The Mexican secret service in bed with drug cartels
MK Ultra

The leaders of the rothchild
The leaders of bilderberg
The creation and control of the porn industry
Pizzagate
The deep state
CIA Control of the golden triangle

FBI informants getting betrayed

Which RACE is responsible for all of this? Any guesses? Not blacks.

Why is does the world have a huge murder rate? White people and guns +endless greed.

If an honest sociologist wanted to compare violent tendencies between the US and the UK without the influence of guns, the scientist would have to find a way to measure violent tendencies. The Stanford prison experiment and the Milgram electric shock experiment offer a clue, but to measure negroid violent tendencies, the subjects would be allowed to strike the victim. This could be ethical if the “victim” were to be a dummy covered by a sack.
Other relevant traits include escalation speed and sensitivity to insults.
“After that the articles can branch off into the need for a gun for protection from racists or a discussion that gun control laws were originally passed to deny blacks their 2nd Amendment rights”
That seems to be the standard narrative from MSM.
Is this being reported anywhere?

This is one of those things that are so obvious that you’re not allowed to say it.
But what can you do about it, really? Take away the guns only from blacks?
And when they start using knives or acid like in England?
A possible solution would be to create very strict psychological gun tests that measure intelligence and low impulse, perhaps something like a disguised SAT test for gun ownership (i.e. something that white and asian people could pass, but not most blacks or low-IQ Mexicans).
But of course, many blacks and browns don’t have legally purchased guns, so I am not sure if even that would solve anything.
It’s part of the trucon inability to stand up for White people in and of themselves. You can’t defend White people’s rights to own guns on the grounds that they’re not the ones, as a group, upping the murder rate.
No, you have to defend the Second Amendment on the grounds that the original gun controllers did so explicitly to disarm Blacks (the horror!) and therefore something something racist.
The flip side of the lefty anti gun types is that second amendment defenders always try to bring up Blacks when everyone (*everyone*) knows they’re defending White rights. They’d be better off acknowledging it and moving on.
Their penchant for going after rednecks’ rifles, is precisely because that’s who they want to disarm.
They display their lack of concern over the handgun violence in cities quite frequently.
Looks like Biden is winning the moderates. Even Fox News is not very critical of him. I think the election is about which candidate can best control BLM and Antifa. The moderates are going super majority Biden on that issue.
Doesn’t Mexico have tough gun laws? We should just follow their lead.
Well, this suggests two possible courses of action: (1) remove the blacks or (2) remove the guns.
If you come for my guns, I’m going to point the sharp end at you and send you away. So will just about everyone I know. If you come for my blacks, I’m going to offer you twice as many.
If they want to shoot themselves in the nuts it saves Whites having to do it.
Blacks are too terrified to go to white areas like Indiana to get firearms. That’s if they could figure out how to get there. The mob used to run guns to the blacks, but I am not sure if they are still doing that.

Most of the focus of gun control seems to be on white people guns, as you’ve pointed out, Steve. Of course, NY State actually has very strict laws on handguns, making it near-impossible to carry anywhere, to own in NYC, and possess anywhere else. Whites in the suburbs follow these rules, generally.
The great crime drop occurred because Nyc actually enforced its gun laws under Bloomberg, cracking down on “illegal” (we should call them undocumented, no?) guns in the city. Since DeBlasio abandoned stop, question, and frisk, and with the recent abandonment of ANY enforcement, we have removed the shackles and will soon out-do Chicago for total murders in the USA.

Same with the Massachusetts Democrats blaming the urban gun violence on New Hampshire. Funny how they seldom blame Vermont, which has gun laws that are among the loosest in the country.
Only slightly OT: I saw a claim made in a Jim Goad column that blacks actually cost the US over $600 billion per annum. That’s an astonishing number if true. Does anyone know who came up with this amount and how?
Agree, it is obviously too low.
Reminded me of spoof,Welsh rapsters, Goldie Looking Chain’s album:
“Guns Don’t Kill People, Rappers Do”
Steve wrong wrong wrong as usual on this topic. Anarcho Tyranny is the whole point of class/race warfare. Nice White ladies want Reginald Denny Day every day for the deplorable. Same with blacks.
Harris is running hard on gun seizure. She says she will mobilize the military to go door to door. Kicking down doors and seizing all guns. Whites only.
Simply put Darius Sessuns executing five year old Cannon Hinant is their goal.
I have.
It’s part of the “color revolution” for the USA, which our deep state and their globalist elite allies have been cooking up over the last decade or two. They evolved the “color revolution” technique by taking down the social structures and legitimate governments of other unwoke countries, e.g. Hillary Clinton’s and Vicky “Fuck the EU” Nuland’s Orange revolution in the Ukraine. Now they’re ready to apply it here.
Readying dissident minorities for open, armed rebellion is one neccessary step. Using legitimate but contested election results as an excuse for starting the revolution is another. Expect a full-scale, hot civil war this November.
The only question is what color should be used to designate our “color revolution”. Obviously not White, although Melville’s description of that color as “the colorless all-color of atheism” might at first glance suggest it’s appropriate. Black is probably the best choice. It is descriptive in every possible sense.
What is the evidence that Democrats are secretly sane and want to do something other than exactly what they frequently say? And there are plenty of legal gun owners in the black community who use guns responsibly, and need those guns because of where they live. Should they be penalized while illegal gangbangers continue to terrorize as usual? Steve is imputing something (a something which sort of makes sense to him) to a party which deserves no credit, no benefit of the doubt, no expectation of sanity. They may have in the past. After the completely baseless Russia nonsense they deserve none. They really are totally cynical, totally unhinged, and totally against the Constitition.
The problem for the Democrats that they always run into when they get excited about gun control is that:
– They want to take handguns away from dangerous urban minorities.
– They will never ever admit that’s what they want to do.
Your analysis is correct for urban Democrats.
However the far-left and many liberals are more interested in disarming Whites. In fact by their actions I don’t think most liberals care that much if Blacks shoot each other.
The left has always been for gun control because they simply don’t want the risk of armed resistance. They are a lot more dependent on charismatic leaders despite all their talk of collective action. If the Germans had shot Lenin instead of helping him the revolution probably wouldn’t have happened.
The modern left is afraid that their Che will appear (hopefully Black) and then some redneck with an AR guns him down from 500 yards. Leftists are especially afraid of rooftop voters.

Yep, that seems correct.
Nobody should worry too much about black-on-black murders where both legs of the transaction are part of a broad groupwise beef.
Take, for example, the video of the guy who was "gunned down" on a Bronx crosswalk while walking with his kid.
That was a hit, which makes it likely that the victim was involved in some violent subculture (absent a case of mistaken identity).
There's no 'business case' for society to waste significant resources reducing the X-on-X murder rate by focusing on events where all the Xs are organised criminals. (This may already be a majority view: it would help explain the low case-resolution rate for urban murders).
When it all boils down, most "organised criminals" are just risk-tolerant entrepreneurs, willing to compete for the risk premia on the supply side of the market for politically-prohibited pharmaceuticals. In doing so they are simply copying the Kennedy dynasty, who made their family fortune running bootleg whisky and then bought their way to respectability.
The violence they perpetrate should rightly be laid at the feet of those perpetrating the indefensible, stupid, societally-pointless War on Some Drugs.
Non-black organised criminals - even Jews, Turks, Armenians, Italians, Lebanese and so forth - are generally very careful when they off each other: non-interference in the commons is a specific objective. I assume that the same is true of genuinely-criminal US blacks. (Plain ol' thugs are a different kettle of fish - and generally they prey on non-combatants: bring down an anvil on them).
As a 'local' analogy to the guy killed on the Bronx crosswalk: in 2003, Melbourne's organised-crime community was uniformly horrified when Jason Moran and his minder were killed while they were picking up Moran's kids from a football 'clinic'.
The Moran hit was considered a Bad Thing by everyone because the close presence of 5 kids (only 2 of which were Moran's) brought significant public attention, which meant that the authorities had to do something. (Worse still, there were upwards of 100 kids at the 'AusKick' clinic that the kids had been attending - imagine every Karen in Melbourne screeching, and you'll get a handle on the pressure on the piggery to Do Something).
Up to that point, there had been about 20 "apud ipsi" killings in Melbourne in the previous handful of years; none of them really resulted in any significant police effort because it was understood that the violence would never touch the public. It was just a bit of the spice of life in Melbourne (similar to the same goings-on in King's Cross in Sydney, made famous by the 'Underbelly' TV series) - it made folks think it was exciting to go to Lygon Street.
Anyway... Carl Williams (who ordered the hit) was looking to red-card the shooter for being such a flog as to kill a bloke in front of his kids; he even let it be known to the Moran family that it was regrettable that the kids were there.
Still, everyone agreed that Williams himself was "on the X" for hiring a drug-fucked non-specialist (the shooter was a low-level armed robber, not a proper killer).
A few years later Williams was beaten to death[1] in Barwon Prison on an unrelated matter.
Contrast this with the evening in 2004 when Mick Gatto shot Benji Vinyamin in the eye in a non-public area at La Porchella (our local pizzeria at the time). No bystanders - not even any witnesses.
Mick stayed at the scene, and was arrested, charged, and tried - and found to have acted in self-defence.
It helped Gatto's defence greatly that Vinyamin was known to have killed at least 7 other prominent members of Melbourne's "underworld"... so the pigs and the DPP properly understood Benji's death was ad hoc personnel management.
Point is: in the ordinary course of events, proper "crims" sort things out among themselves - even at the lower levels (e.g., arguments over who owns the corner). So 'crim-on-crim' violence should only be taken seriously by the forces of Laura Norder if it gets out of hand.
So to the extent that intra-negroid murder reduces to the criminal classes resolving business disputes, everyone should discount the extent of the problem.
[1] I say "beaten to death" because he was struck repeatedly about the head and body with various pieces of gym equipment very soon before he died.
In Yanklish, though, that might be interpreted as purely coincidental: using the cognitive chops deployed by some of the fuckwits commenting on George Floyd, I could claim that since Williams died of cardiac arrest and was obese... well, he actually died of a heart attack and should be in the books as a casualty of a lifestyle of over-indulgence in starchy foods.

I think that every legal hand gun owner wants all guns out of the hands of violent criminals and former felons. This used to be accomplished, to some degree, by “Stop and Frisk.” That tactic is now banned in almost every dem controlled city. Yesterday governor cuomo bemoaned the fact that shootings, mostly by handguns, are up 79% in NYS. It is almost impossible to get a permit just to purchase a handgun in NYS. Obtaining a conceal carry permit is basically impossible. So, criminals, illegaly carrying and using handguns are the problem in NYS. Well, they are one problem. Dems who don’t really give a shit about who is doing the shooting are a bigger problem. Did I mention I loathe cuomo?
The trailer for Kenneth Branagh’s Woke-version of Death on the Nile is out. From the looks of things, quite a few characters have been Blacked:
The Blackness level is due to the tacit quota system in British productions.
A. A significant percentage of people residing in Britain are non-White. Therefore a significant and quite likely even higher percentage of actors are non-White. They want acting jobs. That means they have to be cast in every production. If anyone even suggested doing a Norman invasion movie with historically accurate 100% European casting, they would never work again in the entertainment industry.
B. Proponents will argue that if you can cast an Anglo-Saxon actor as the mythical Achaean character Achilles, why can’t you cast a sub-Saharan African? After all in both cases a mythical character is being played by an actor of a different ethnic origin.
C. By mis-casting non-White in historical productions you create the sense that non-Whites were always living in Britain, therefore no one can complain when White Britons are eventually replaced with non-White Britons.

A lot of people don't understand how badly education has deteriorated.
Most of the difference in homicide rates between the U.S. and European countries is to be found in the slums. About 10% of our population lives in urban segments where the homicide rate exceeds 30 per 100,000. Reducing it to about 12 per 100,000 is a feasible social project. About 1/3 of the homicides which occur in this country (more in the future) are the low hanging fruit that can be suppressed with more vigorous policing.
NB, in the U.S. up until recently, you've been less likely to be burgled and far less likely to have your car stolen than in England and Wales. The distinction between the two was in the realm of violent crime, and the distinction is much more pronounced for homicide than it is for robbery or (IIRC) sexual assaults.Replies: @Reg Cæsar
Yankees, krauts, and squareheads.
It may be that urban crime is balanced by a large percentage of immigrants who are less violent than the natives, e.g., Poles and Hindus. Remember, too, that the rural proportion of the English (and Canadian and Australian, for that matter) population is quite a bit sm aller than in the US.
What I’d like to see is crime statistics broken down by congressional district. See how they correlate with not only party, but votes on individual issues. E.g., with NRA and NumbersUSA grades.
Oh, and pro-life votes. Because few things are more anti-life than murder.
Polish homicide rates are slightly higher than the UK but in any society young men are the most likely to commit crime and a very large proportion of young Polish men are living in the UK (and other Western European countries) so the crimes that they commit appear as French Dutch or British homicides. Effectively Poland is a major crime exporter.Replies: @John Johnson

All kidding aside, the British stabbers are probably drunk and lashing out wildly, while the Americans are probably using the knife with literally deadly intent.
In Erie County, perhaps now. But in other N.Y. counties named after an Indian nation, or US president, or Constitutional Convention delegate, or Revolutionary War hero? Hunting with pistols is legal in New York: https://www.dec.ny.gov/outdoor/28182.html
A good rule of thumb is to assume ease of getting a N.Y. pistol permit is inversely proportional to your need for self-defense in any particular county. E’g’, compare Kings or Queens with Franklin, Jefferson, or Greene.
The great crime drop occurred because Nyc actually enforced its gun laws under Bloomberg, cracking down on "illegal" (we should call them undocumented, no?) guns in the city. Since DeBlasio abandoned stop, question, and frisk, and with the recent abandonment of ANY enforcement, we have removed the shackles and will soon out-do Chicago for total murders in the USA.Replies: @Altai, @Kronos, @Kronos
Yep, that seems correct.
Very true. Several years ago Chuck Schumer admitted to Congress that back in the 1970’s or 80’s, most progressives wanted to get rid of all guns…even Uncle Fred’s .410 break action single shot. But, he said, progressives aren’t like that anymore, so conservatives should go along with progressives’ current gun control measures. That’s a paraphrase, but not too far off of his actual words. His belief in his sub-mediocre persuasive powers is truly amazing.
Handguns are the most common type of firearm used in violent crime, but they’re also the most effective weapons for law-abiding citizens to protect themselves in public settings. The grand conversion of conservatives into people who believe that a law-abiding individual has the right to carry a handgun (most didn’t believe in this until the 1980’s or ’90’s, when black gang violence started spiking) isn’t lost on the smart left. At least a few among them are able to recognize a long standing political principal: for every social or political action (like ghetto violence or attempted draconian gun bans) there’s an amplified and opposite reaction.
So they go after black rifles in a Chuck Schumer style subterfuge, somehow hoping not to offend the tens of millions of handgun owners in the US, or make them worry about their concealed carry permits, even though banning those things is the ultimate goal of the anti-gun left. Again, the confidence they have in their transparent strategy is amazing. If they ban black rifles, almost nothing will happen to gun crime stats, so they’ll have an excuse to go after handguns, believing that their success in banning rifles will give them enough “momentum” to accomplish this. Delusional. Good luck in getting rid of 1/3 billion guns in the US.
And most of those higher-rate murder countries throughout the Americas, have stricter 'gun control' laws, such as Mexico whose murder rate has been 3x the USA. Even countries people think of as 'peaceful' such as Costa Rica, has a murder rate 2.5x the USA.
The moral is that, once a society tips over into a certain level of violence - which seems to be associated with multi-ethnic roots, more than poverty - the guns actually prevent a lot of crime
Consider Brasil, where Bolsonaro's combination of tougher, go-ahead-and-shoot-the-bad-guys policing, plus more liberal, easier gun ownership, has been reducing the massive violent crime in Brasil
It is clearly not the guns. In continental Europe - tho most Americans don't know it, confused and misled by Britain's 1990s confiscation of all handguns - there are tens of millions of legally-owned civilian handguns, shotguns and rifles, tho not the 'carry' laws like in the USA.
And although having the 2nd highest continental rate of gun ownership in the world, Europe is the continent with the lowest murder and crime rates ... tho that has been climbing along with diversity
White Americans, despite all their hundreds of millions of guns, have overall a murder rate not far from that of white EuropeansReplies: @Unladen Swallow, @Joe Pescadillo, @Rahan
I remember hearing that on another post on this website, Ron had excerpted parts of Robert Trivers autobiography a couple of years ago where he was lamenting the high rate of violent crime in Jamaica and some black radical who posted to one of them was claiming the US was worse and had a sky high rate of gun violence compared to other countries.
Another poster pointed out that the only reason the US had higher rates than other industrialized countries was due to our black population and larger aggregate population. Once you adjusted for population size and percent black, and looked at only US whites, they had virtually the same rate of homicide as Britain and other “Anglo” countries.
That’s essentially the thesis of the entire history of the isteve blog.

I wonder if it’s going to be as over the top bad as the previous production of Murder on the Orient Express.
The Blackness level is due to the tacit quota system in British productions.
A. A significant percentage of people residing in Britain are non-White. Therefore a significant and quite likely even higher percentage of actors are non-White. They want acting jobs. That means they have to be cast in every production. If anyone even suggested doing a Norman invasion movie with historically accurate 100% European casting, they would never work again in the entertainment industry.
B. Proponents will argue that if you can cast an Anglo-Saxon actor as the mythical Achaean character Achilles, why can’t you cast a sub-Saharan African? After all in both cases a mythical character is being played by an actor of a different ethnic origin.
C. By mis-casting non-White in historical productions you create the sense that non-Whites were always living in Britain, therefore no one can complain when White Britons are eventually replaced with non-White Britons.

Agree, it is obviously too low.
Blacks and leftists have been buying guns a lot in recent years. It’s a trend that the conservative bubble isn’t aware of, they still think right wing whites are the only ones with guns. Leftists and blacks are organizing militias across the country now. Just to be clear, blacks are consciously and openly buying more guns to fight right wing whites, not to protect themselves from black criminals. This is a step in the balkanization of America will eventually lead to Civil War Two.

And smuggling hotspot for at least a century — funny how you overlooked that key plot element:
This Tiny French Archipelago Became America’s Alcohol Warehouse During Prohibition
Situated off the South coast of Newfoundland, St. Pierre-Miquelon, being a French possession, offers unusual opportunities for the smuggler to ply his illicit trade…Therefore St. Pierre is to-day the greatest smuggling centre in the world…
In all these cases — and this goes for the south side of Chicago, too — you might want to at least try to factor out turf-wars by traffickers and other gangsters if you want a fair comparison of how murder-prone a given population is.

(For the record, they’re going through drug withdrawals and searching for a fix.)
What a clueless old boomer comment. Blacks are not scared to go anywhere now. Indianapolis is a black city. All of the guns in the ghetto are purchased in red states by black straw buyers. There is no “mob” anymore and blacks have their own totally independent criminal networks. I notice many of the comments here are full of outdated assumptions. Older white conservatives are not aware of how things have changed. The guy who said that under 40 aged leftists don’t care about gun control is right. They all think the left needs guns and militias to fight right wing whites. Older white conservatives are whistling past the graveyard, certain that their opponents are incompetent, even as their opponents take control of the streets with rioting mobs backed by armed militias — and the police.

You might get a kick out of these weird people going into this gun store. (I believe it takes place in Portland.)
The owner records everything and it’s bizarre that it’s not satire. The weird people fit all the stereotypes of potential Antifa supporters. One thing I’ve noticed since watching multiple videos of different people going into this store is this strange thrill they radiate. I guess if your a progressive, going into a gun store is akin to attending a porno theater/sex shop in the 1970s. Typically, you’d never want to be caught dead in there from fear of damaging one’s social standing. A gun store sells masculinity, something that’s a schedule I narcotic these days. So 50 years onwards the script has been switched. Gun stores are the new porno theaters of the last era.

I believe if i want to see this movie, I will watch the original version.
MLK was done in with a Remington 760 30-06 Gamemaster.
Ray originally had purchased a rifle, I'm not sure if it was a 760 or not, in caliber .243 (6mm), but decided he wanted something more powerful and exchanged it for the .30-06. An unnecessary step, as the .243 would have been just as deadly.
Speaking of Remington, the financially troubled company's planned acquisition by the Navajo tribe has fallen apart. Tribal leadership was all for it, but the plan faced heavy opposition from tribal members, who pointed out that spending millions of dollars at the present time was a terrible idea given that the virus has hit the reservation harder than almost anywhere else in the world.
During the primaries Biden made a big issue of “coming for your guns.”
iSteve’s premise has a problem. The murder rate among US blacks is higher for all typical weapons such as knives, bats and feet / fists. Pretty sure the availability of feet and fists in Detroit is just about the same as in Zurich.
There is a genetic issue involved; what percentage of a population carries this gene?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monoamine_oxidase_A
Short time preference plus higher circulating levels of T plus MOAI plus poor impulse control plus mean IQ of 85. Those are the factors. Objects in the vicinity are incidental – a tire iron or an axe handle or a gun or a gallon of gasoline….just objects.
Socialization of people can lengthen out the time preference bit, improve the impulse control a bit. Teaching young men to control themselves is an endless and nearly thankless job, keeping young men away from really stupid and dangerous people…ditto.
Libtards would literally rather die than admit that the blank slate is false, or admit that much of US culture is purely destructive. So there we are.
tl;dr It’s not the guns. It’s the people holding them.
“Biden already said he’s coming for your guns.”
Bernie doesn’t want to take away our guns, and he also doesn’t want to defund the police, which Biden said should be done. Good thing the Democrats locked Bernie out, let Joe steal all Bernie’s radical policies and then let Joe go even farther left.
If you take away guns somehow, blacks will use other weapons. Knives bricks, stone, crobars will kill. It is possible that the murder rate will increase if guns are banned.

Who would oppose disarming African-Amerians? Many states did in the 19th century, and much of post-Fourteenth Amendment gun law is slyly written to do so.

I read the TT stuff in the Houston Chronic and it is always anti GOP, pro Dem/Prog baloney. Now most state politicians in Texas are currently Republican, so they are legitimate fair game.

Leftists (not liberals) like guns. They have no problem with gun ownership. “Arm the people” is an old left-wing rallying cry. However it’s not in their interest to say so publicly at this time while there’s still a possibility of talking their opponents into disarming themselves.
That was a gross over-generalization on my part. It’s like characterizing all factions of the Republican Party of supporting free trade (something Ross Perot and Pat Buchanan had deep reservations about.)

We have a left-wing gun owners group in our state and they are tiny. The gay club has more members. Leftists are against gun ownership because they correctly assess that the opposition is more likely to use them. Communists only supported gun ownership until they took over. So it's similar to how they feel about free speech. They are support its use when directed against the system but would never allow it under leftist control.

Chicago doesn’t have tough gun laws. Chicago is in Illinois, which passed a CCW law in 2013. The law went into effect in Feb. 2014. Since the issuing of CCLs began in 2014, Chicago’s rates of murder and violent crime have exploded in the hood. The “Chicago gun control meme” is Kuckservative klowning in high gear, placing the blame on non-existent gun control and off of blacks.
So your narrative of "after, therefore because of" is gaslighting, no more. The killers in Chicago don't have CCL or FOID. See https://www.ispfsb.com/
I have to remember that if a liberal says that grass is green and water is wet, we must be in the middle of a blizzard: grass is dead and water is ice. If you care about what a liberal says, check it thoroughly.

Yes, but once the crowbar is thrown it takes some time to reload. Accidental crowbars hitting children in random crowbar throwing incidents are considerably less likely.
Regardless of where one stands on the 2nd Amendment, the rapid hurling of deadly projectiles is a function of only guns. Therefore, no guns less murders. That’s an issue that is hard to grapple with and is emotionally loaded, so to speak.
Personally, it’s a tradeoff I accept.
The former. I was not engaging in the post-modern game where scholars invent/distort words. I was discussing the frontispiece to Bacon’s Instauratio Magna and made reference to the aptness of its “liminal imagery.”
Afterwards, my Oxonian colleague remarked that he was unfamiliar with the word and asked me to enlighten him.
And, in case anyone is curious, here’s the dictionary definition:
liminal

2. at a boundary or transitional point between two conditions, stages in a process, ways of life, etc.

And most of those higher-rate murder countries throughout the Americas, have stricter 'gun control' laws, such as Mexico whose murder rate has been 3x the USA. Even countries people think of as 'peaceful' such as Costa Rica, has a murder rate 2.5x the USA.
The moral is that, once a society tips over into a certain level of violence - which seems to be associated with multi-ethnic roots, more than poverty - the guns actually prevent a lot of crime
Consider Brasil, where Bolsonaro's combination of tougher, go-ahead-and-shoot-the-bad-guys policing, plus more liberal, easier gun ownership, has been reducing the massive violent crime in Brasil
It is clearly not the guns. In continental Europe - tho most Americans don't know it, confused and misled by Britain's 1990s confiscation of all handguns - there are tens of millions of legally-owned civilian handguns, shotguns and rifles, tho not the 'carry' laws like in the USA.
And although having the 2nd highest continental rate of gun ownership in the world, Europe is the continent with the lowest murder and crime rates ... tho that has been climbing along with diversity

Yes, of course, the media has been talking up the white supremacist menace for a long time, they’ve been trying to do it for months now (first with anti-lockdown protestors, then with anti-rioters), but it hasn’t really stuck. They’ll keep trying though, and it will get ratcheted up intensely if Kamala wins. They do want those new gun owners to point their guns at someone eventually of course.
Of course, conservatives are going alone with it, because they’re dumb. It’s part of the based black man phenomenon, where conservatives play identity politics by surrogate – he’s a CivNat like all good white Americans, but based black man can have a gun and talk about what’s good for his people, the Arab business owner can put up a “minority owned” sign so his business doesn’t get set on fire (ignoring the obvious implication that white owned businesses are fair game), Jews can have his ethnostate, and of course the blonde bimbo can wear a MAGA hat and a bikini while she shoots an AR-15.
Illinois CCL are required to carry any pistol whatsoever. An Illinois FOID is needed to buy the ammunition for a pistol. Both require fingerprinting, a check by the police, and training. It’s all money and time. Gangbangers have the time, but not the money, and not the clean record either.

The biggest mass murder in my Connecticut hometown, back in the early 1980’s, was a case of arson. Some schmuck was angry at his teenaged niece for booting him out of her family’s apartment because he was drunk, and decided to get back at her by starting a fire outside her door. Unfortunately, she lived in a grotesquely overcrowded run-down apartment house, which had been exempt from smoke detector and other fire safety requirements on account of its age,* and residents had barricaded a rear exit door because of constant burglaries. It went up quickly and 14 people were unable to escape. The perpetrator, Israel Madera, got life without parole, and died in prison about a decade ago.

USA... 4.96
Mongolia... 6.19
Ukraine... 6.20
Russia... 8.21
Saint Pierre et Miquelon (the most racially European islands on planet Earth)... 15.91^ That ranking does not bode well for white nationalism. (Keep in mind that Ukraine, Russia, the USA and Saint Pierre are all much, much older and more geriatric than those Asian and African countries on that list.)
And, in fact, the murder rate in America today is about half of what it was in 1979. In 1980, 23,000 people were murdered, when the population was 226 million. In 2019, just 16,000 people were murdered. The population that year, not including millions of illegals, was 328 million. Boomers and Gen X were the actual terrorists.. Not black people.During this time period, the black population remained stable, healthy, youthful and vibrant, the brown population increased sharply, and whites aged, stagnated, mildewed, and are now about to start shrinking, due to the infertility of their womenfolk.In the USA, the suicide rate significantly exceeds the murder rate:Although neither could be called crises, over 40,000 suicides vs 16,000 murders begs the question: why is the alt-right incessantly complaining about the black murder rate of this country? It's a losing position that has never been met with even the faintest hope of political or social success. In my opinion, the alt-right fails to tackle the suicide rate because they know that the US suicide rate boils down primarily to firearms and toxic white culture, which means the Left was right. Gun ownership, alcohol and individualism (the last tenets of white "culture" to survive in to the 21st century) really are more dangerous to your health than negroes, who most white people do not live in close proximity to.
So we're kind of in this awkward situation where we're stuck between taking the red pill, and actually admitting that there is no murder problem, or staying on the blue pill and continuing to complain about the non-existent black-on-white murder phenomenon, which is a losing position that has accomplshed nothing despite 30 years of complaining about it online.
Honesty, it has been said, is the best policy. My way of thinking says it's time to admit that we don't care about dead people we neved met, and so we should stop incessantly complaining about these non-issues online, in the attempt to build political momentum to get black people deported or exterminated from North America (an objective that can never be accomplished by political means).Replies: @HA, @YetAnotherAnon, @Hippopotamusdrome

When it comes to blacks and guns, there seems to be two political opinions around:
1. Blacks should not be allowed to own guns for their own good as they can’t be trusted to behave responsibly.
2. Blacks should be allowed to own guns, whether they have been convicted of a felony or not, so that they kill each other and thin out the herd (culling especially the more violent ones).
The divide is not so much on liberal vs conservative. It is more statist vs liberatarian. And of course, if you don’t live in a black neighborhood, you will not care as to whether blacks are armed or not.
Blacks and Whites should have different gun laws. This opinion is already supported in practice by Democrats. You don't see rural Democrats clamoring for more gun laws.I even read an article by a liberal that suggested we ban everything but small calibers in handguns. The implied message was that we should let Blacks wound each other.

John Chapman's life story is pretty amazing - it's a terrible shame that it was turned into a stupid Disneyfied cartoon.
The planting of apple orchards (and peach trees) were a condition of land grants of 100 frontier acres, so creating 'pre-prepared' orchards helped frontier settlers - and Chapman made some small income from managing the orchards on other people's behalf.
The apple trees he cultivated produced almost-inedible 'spitters' because they were grown from seed, which has been known since Roman times to produce nasty fruit - sweet fruit come from grafted stock. The fruit were actually destined for hard cider, which was the dominant tipple until Prohibition, with the average frontier adult consuming ~10oz (2/3 pint) of hard cider a day. It was drunk in preference to water, since water was a potential source of a range of diseases - English settlers in Australia had the same relationship with beer, as did monks in the Middle Ages.
(Thoreau referred to the fruit from spitters as "sour enough to set a squirrel's teeth on edge and make a jay scream.")
It's also worth noting that during Prohibition, the US Death Machine (specifically the FBI) sent teams of axe-wielding fuckwits to cut down all the cider-apple trees that they could find, and destroyed the basis for a return of the industry once the fuckwittedness of Prohibition was finally recognised.

In Suffolk County, pistol permit applicants go through a telephone interview with an officer from the county police department. During the interview, the cop asks the applicant a series of questions about training, intended uses, safe storage, and so on. It usually takes about 20 minutes.
The cop isn’t particularly interested in the applicant’s specific answers. He’s actually trained in psychology and is listening carefully for any indications of mental instability. Strangely enough, insurance companies do something not entirely unrelated when older people apply for long-term care insurance. Underwriters call applicants and engage them in seemingly casual conversations. They’re actually looking for any signs of dementia.

I only ever catch pieces of it when it’s on at the gym, but it seems like almost every episode features a white family versus a black family. It is so consistent that it’s hard to imagine it being anything other than intentional.
The Our Lady of the Angels fire in 1958. Among the survivors was Jonathan Cain of the rock band Journey.
He should have tea sometime with Andy Murray, who was in the Dunblane school the day Thomas Hamilton shot it up. And it would be nice to invite Waylon Jennings, who gave up his seat on Buddy Holly's plane; but Waylon has since gone on to join Buddy.
Getting back to Suffolk County, not long ago I heard from a gun store employee that the demand for pistol permits is so high they police firearms division is hopelessly backed up with applications.

One interesting question about black-on-black crime is how many of the victims are non-participants in some broader group conflict.
Nobody should worry too much about black-on-black murders where both legs of the transaction are part of a broad groupwise beef.
Take, for example, the video of the guy who was “gunned down” on a Bronx crosswalk while walking with his kid.
That was a hit, which makes it likely that the victim was involved in some violent subculture (absent a case of mistaken identity).
There’s no ‘business case’ for society to waste significant resources reducing the X-on-X murder rate by focusing on events where all the Xs are organised criminals. (This may already be a majority view: it would help explain the low case-resolution rate for urban murders).
When it all boils down, most “organised criminals” are just risk-tolerant entrepreneurs, willing to compete for the risk premia on the supply side of the market for politically-prohibited pharmaceuticals. In doing so they are simply copying the Kennedy dynasty, who made their family fortune running bootleg whisky and then bought their way to respectability.
The violence they perpetrate should rightly be laid at the feet of those perpetrating the indefensible, stupid, societally-pointless War on Some Drugs.
Non-black organised criminals – even Jews, Turks, Armenians, Italians, Lebanese and so forth – are generally very careful when they off each other: non-interference in the commons is a specific objective. I assume that the same is true of genuinely-criminal US blacks. (Plain ol’ thugs are a different kettle of fish – and generally they prey on non-combatants: bring down an anvil on them).
As a ‘local’ analogy to the guy killed on the Bronx crosswalk: in 2003, Melbourne’s organised-crime community was uniformly horrified when Jason Moran and his minder were killed while they were picking up Moran’s kids from a football ‘clinic’.
The Moran hit was considered a Bad Thing by everyone because the close presence of 5 kids (only 2 of which were Moran’s) brought significant public attention, which meant that the authorities had to do something. (Worse still, there were upwards of 100 kids at the ‘AusKick‘ clinic that the kids had been attending – imagine every Karen in Melbourne screeching, and you’ll get a handle on the pressure on the piggery to Do Something).
Up to that point, there had been about 20 “apud ipsi” killings in Melbourne in the previous handful of years; none of them really resulted in any significant police effort because it was understood that the violence would never touch the public. It was just a bit of the spice of life in Melbourne (similar to the same goings-on in King’s Cross in Sydney, made famous by the ‘Underbelly’ TV series) – it made folks think it was exciting to go to Lygon Street.
Anyway… Carl Williams (who ordered the hit) was looking to red-card the shooter for being such a flog as to kill a bloke in front of his kids; he even let it be known to the Moran family that it was regrettable that the kids were there.
Still, everyone agreed that Williams himself was “on the X” for hiring a drug-fucked non-specialist (the shooter was a low-level armed robber, not a proper killer).
A few years later Williams was beaten to death[1] in Barwon Prison on an unrelated matter.
Contrast this with the evening in 2004 when Mick Gatto shot Benji Vinyamin in the eye in a non-public area at La Porchella (our local pizzeria at the time). No bystanders – not even any witnesses.
Mick stayed at the scene, and was arrested, charged, and tried – and found to have acted in self-defence.
It helped Gatto’s defence greatly that Vinyamin was known to have killed at least 7 other prominent members of Melbourne’s “underworld”… so the pigs and the DPP properly understood Benji’s death was ad hoc personnel management.
Point is: in the ordinary course of events, proper “crims” sort things out among themselves – even at the lower levels (e.g., arguments over who owns the corner). So ‘crim-on-crim‘ violence should only be taken seriously by the forces of Laura Norder if it gets out of hand.
So to the extent that intra-negroid murder reduces to the criminal classes resolving business disputes, everyone should discount the extent of the problem.
[1] I say “beaten to death” because he was struck repeatedly about the head and body with various pieces of gym equipment very soon before he died.
In Yanklish, though, that might be interpreted as purely coincidental: using the cognitive chops deployed by some of the fuckwits commenting on George Floyd, I could claim that since Williams died of cardiac arrest and was obese… well, he actually died of a heart attack and should be in the books as a casualty of a lifestyle of over-indulgence in starchy foods.
I believe Biden has spoken of an intent to deputize that silly boy out of Texas – “Beto” – to perform that task.

It’s beyond injustice that John Chapman is largely remembered only for a few apple orchards, as opposed to being pretty much a frontier Diogenes (albeit with a Yahweh overlay).
John Chapman’s life story is pretty amazing – it’s a terrible shame that it was turned into a stupid Disneyfied cartoon.
The planting of apple orchards (and peach trees) were a condition of land grants of 100 frontier acres, so creating ‘pre-prepared’ orchards helped frontier settlers – and Chapman made some small income from managing the orchards on other people’s behalf.
The apple trees he cultivated produced almost-inedible ‘spitters‘ because they were grown from seed, which has been known since Roman times to produce nasty fruit – sweet fruit come from grafted stock. The fruit were actually destined for hard cider, which was the dominant tipple until Prohibition, with the average frontier adult consuming ~10oz (2/3 pint) of hard cider a day. It was drunk in preference to water, since water was a potential source of a range of diseases – English settlers in Australia had the same relationship with beer, as did monks in the Middle Ages.
(Thoreau referred to the fruit from spitters as “sour enough to set a squirrel’s teeth on edge and make a jay scream.”)
It’s also worth noting that during Prohibition, the US Death Machine (specifically the FBI) sent teams of axe-wielding fuckwits to cut down all the cider-apple trees that they could find, and destroyed the basis for a return of the industry once the fuckwittedness of Prohibition was finally recognised.
I have no doubt that the 1950s Disney-fication of Chapman’s life was due, in part, to keeping the hard cider legacy of Johnny Appleseed firmly in the Memory Hole.
Enforcement of prohibition laws was vested in the Treasury Department. The FBI had about 650 employees ca. 1925.

Leftists (not liberals) like guns. They have no problem with gun ownership. “Arm the people” is an old left-wing rallying cry.
We have a left-wing gun owners group in our state and they are tiny. The gay club has more members.
Leftists are against gun ownership because they correctly assess that the opposition is more likely to use them.
Communists only supported gun ownership until they took over.
So it’s similar to how they feel about free speech. They are support its use when directed against the system but would never allow it under leftist control.

I don’t know if it is fear that motivates them but they still mainly stick to their turf.
They are more likely to rob a cousin than drive out to the burbs.
Blacks are creatures of habit more than any other group.
Random home invasions by Black criminals are actually quite rare.
All of the guns in the ghetto are purchased in red states by black straw buyers.

Urban blacks seem to have no problem in attaining ammunition. Out here in the exurbs we do. Why is that?
White gun owners expend a lot of ammunition in target practice. Urban blacks get in all their target practice on each other. Someone who goes to a range may shoot up two or three 50-round boxes of ammo in one session. That could rack up quite a body count in the inner city, even with poor marksmanship.

Blacks’ shooting range is the street on a busy Friday night. The reason shooters repeatedly show such a low hit rate is because they get shot themselves before they have time to perfect their marksmanship.
1. Blacks should not be allowed to own guns for their own good as they can't be trusted to behave responsibly.
2. Blacks should be allowed to own guns, whether they have been convicted of a felony or not, so that they kill each other and thin out the herd (culling especially the more violent ones).

Hmmm I think it is closer to:
1) Sure Black shootings are the main problem but we can’t discuss that so let’s just reject all gun laws.
2) Sure Black shootings are the main problem but we can’t discuss that so let’s treat all gun owners as the problem.
The honest and rational yet completely unacceptable opinion is:
Blacks and Whites should have different gun laws.
This opinion is already supported in practice by Democrats.
You don’t see rural Democrats clamoring for more gun laws.
I even read an article by a liberal that suggested we ban everything but small calibers in handguns. The implied message was that we should let Blacks wound each other.
I don’t know the etymology of the black term “homeboy,” but it struck me as apt. In England, you see white criminals doing “Clockwork Orange” style home invasions where they drive 50 miles out into the country to attack some remote house. In contrast, suburbs 50 miles northwest of South-Central L.A. have basically zero crime.
Gun ownership helps, of course.

2 consecutive years with homicides is absolutely enormous for a small town of 6000 people. I grew up in a town that size, and there were no homicides for my residence there up to young adulthood. I would expect a homicide every 20 or 30 years. Back to back homicides yearly would have the population reeling. Hell, a burglary gets these communes all upset. Small towns of 6000 people don’t have this kind of crime. You wouldn’t know, because you’re a city boy, probably one with a lot of Jewish or southern European admixture. Something is deeply, deeply amoral in white America (which you aren’t a member of), and it’s getting worse.
In the 1990s, a small city near me had a murder rate about 60 per 100,000. (Corrupt prosecutor, drugs, etc.) An immediately adjacent township, a sanctuary suburb for White flighters, with about the same population had a murder rate of 1/2 per 100,000.

Of course, the scientific nature of the paper might be a matter of opinion, there being no instruments for measuring the scientific nature of a paper, and your opinion may be different from mine, at least in your opinion, so maybe pilpul would still manage to be separate from reality should you actually try for a scientific experiment that measured some property of pilpul.

Yes the bolshevks used guns to violently take over the government because they had no belief that they could win through democracy.

Then after the revolution they demanded that all guns be surrendered. That was a decree in 1918 by the council.

I bet its more a matter of IQ than race, I bet a survey of whiteguys convicted of murder would reveal a lot of really low IQ white guys. As far as blacks having lower IQs, thousands of years of slavery I think would tend to lower the IQ of the slaves, nobody likes a smart assed slave.
