I didn't say they were a black thing or a white thing, I simply pointed out that whites commit the majority of them.

Seeing as we've already established 64% of mass shootings are committed by whites, I'd say we're all caught up already.

As long as it only promotes friends talking to each other and voluntary action with no government involvement or coercion, I don't see the problem here. Well there was on problem. The video showed the guy going to the range and then cleaning his Glock BEFORE shooting it! Seriously, what the hell guy...

If I looked hard enough I'm sure I could find white people doing all those things, or at least something comparable to them. Maybe not this week. but does that really matter? Dylan Roof executed 9 people in a church. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dylann_Roof Timothy McVeigh killed more then 160 with...

The point is that the difference between types of dogs is not on par between different races of humans.

BePrepared wrote:And continually reducing race to just "skin color" is like defending pit bulls by saying, "but their coat color doesn't make them the most dangerous dog breed!"

And you think dogs can be aptly compared to humans?

Off topic, but I'm just curious. Would you also say that Muslims pose no greater threat to the world and western civilization in particular than any other religion or political ideology? I figured you would bring that up sooner or later. Islam is a exceptionally dangerous religion, but that isn't c...

But the people who use the term "skin color" (as if this was a dermatological discussion) usually think of race (and sex/"gender") as social constructs, instead of the biological realities that they are. Now who's using strawmen? I didn't say race was a social construct. Obvious...

My original point stands: This isn't about race. It's about 2 morons who committed a crime. The fact that they were black is immaterial. Their skin color didn't make them do it.

Any once more, yes, whites and Asians commit crimes too. But not in rates that backs do. It's not even close. I didn't say they all committed crimes at equal rates. I said stupid and violent conduct knows no skin color. To quote Stefan Molyneux, "Finding exceptions to a general trend is NOT AN...

Nope. That wasn't a mob brawl involving a dozen or more white people. I'll keep waiting for you to find one. That's not what you said before. You just said a brawl, you didn't mention a mob or an exact number of people. Way to move the goal posts. But how about a shootout involving dozens of whites...

It's absolutely about race. You're in law enforcement, and don't know the HUGE disparity in crime rates among different racial groups? I know there are disparities, but the fact remains whites commit enough crime for this to be an issue clearly beyond race. Like I said, in my years of law enforceme...

Very well state, Yankee. Furthermore, everything you need to know about black violence in this country has been THOROUGHLY documented by Colin Flaherty in his two books, and on his YouTube channels. Seriously guys? You're going to make this about race? Do you have any idea how much crazy dumb shit ...

I can understand the violence breaking out as somewhat of a surprise. I'm sorry my friend, but there is no way in Hell that I can take this statement seriously. Knowing what you know about the world around you, and seeing the already hostile and out of control behavior from this violent thug animal...

The customer was being inappropriate but was doing no harm overall until the store owner escalated the situation through unnecessary confrontation. This lady put herself and her daughter at risk of violent attack because why, they were slapping the windows and saying mean things? I understand wanti...

http://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/2017/06/dean-weingarten/did-california-magazine-limits-handicap-ar-equipped-homeowner-during-home-invasion/ I'd say the real hero of this story is the 69-year old victim, not just the resident who killed the home invaders. Chong Yee Yang may have saved the lives of t...

From what I have seen or read, it's usually the county sheriff's who understand threats in today's society and are proactive with regard to law enforcement. You also have to keep in mind most Sheriffs are elected, as opposed to police chiefs who are appointed by mayors or city councils. That gives ...

Wow those are some crazy incidents. Can't believe the cops were plain clothed and didn't identify themselves before drawing. Anyway, in the case I showed, you'll notice the victim didn't shoot right away. He waited till the offender was at his car and it looked like they exchanged some words first. ...

Do you have a link for this video?

Well the bad guy certainly picked the right wardrobe for the occasion. Good idea to wear a red sweater.

Nathan wrote:...I'd even consider physically removing them entirely.

I'd never consider that on grounds that this could be considered a "dangerous modification" that could be used against you if you are ever in court over a shooting.
