Thanks for a reasonable reply...... I'm not sure about the average black being bigger or stronger, not saying it not true just hadn't heard that. It seemed about the same when I was in school.... I think - and this may be controversial - that a large part of the problem is the disintegration of the two parent household that has effected the black community at a higher rate (to be fair the white community has recently started to catch up). I was raised by any standards in a lower class family money wise. No A/C....and in south Georgia that was rough, one car....ect, ect. BUT I did have two parents that loved me. I learned to work at an early age and was expected to work. yadda, yadda 5 miles uphill in the snow.... I know. My point is that being poor isn't a reason and an excuse to fall into a life of crime. It is a choice. Personally I believe all LEO should have body video if they carry a gun and if they use the gun it damn sure better be on. Thanks again for a well thought out reply....we may not agree but its all food for thought. Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

So the idea is that the reason more blacks are charged with crimes is because the police unfairly target them? Or is it that because the unemployment rate is so high for blacks that the crime rate must be higher? I'm really not being a smart ass.....I'm trying to understand WHY black on black murder is so casually dismissed. LEO have been under the microscope since Ferguson... I don't know how many LEO have killed a black man since then BUT I think four or five have been controversial - I wonder if that really is a surprise? One is to many.....but why in God's name don't we see the out rage over so many of the other deaths? Because it isn't big news. Black life's matter - they just don't matter near as much unless it a LEO that takes it. Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

So for our lawyers out there....what does this mean? Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

Well to be fair I believe he was discussing three homes in Eloy. Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

And MY RESPONSE was to YOUR comment Perhaps you are from a country that a net worth of well passed $5,000,000 doesn't put you in the top 1%? Your very welcome, with the amount of money you have I certainly understand it isn't NEEDED and was unsolicited - just as much as I'm sure your comment had the same value.

Reply in general. Reading these post it occurs to me that so many things have changed. Most ALL here (posting) can recall when we had elections and you cheered if "your guy" won, you cried if "your guy" lost and in about three days we all went back to work and they (the politicians) went back to the peoples work. Now - we say that all the people who voted for the winning person (or leaving EU) are dumb asses. The idea that the majority of anything means anything seems to be lost. I don't pretend to know what will happen with this but the idea that everyone who voted for it is a dumbass....is just stupid. We have to learn (re-learn?) how to lose.

I'm sorry but if you lost THAT much value you either need someone to better manage your money or you are in the 1% (or very close). Houses at 200k x 2.5 ("almost three decent houses") =$500,000 loose. I don't believe the market overall is down 10%. So if you have a NW of $5,000,000....... Maybe some diversification is in order? Now might be a good time to buy..... Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

Read through the info....I just don't see how this was such a hard call. I personally believe the guy had more sexual confusion.....but he did make the comments....plus it was already reported. To me it was poorly played and APPEARS to be more of an attempt to minimize the fact that a terrorist attack took place. Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

Bill sorry on my iPad so I don't know how to "quote" but here in America certainly you are correct. OTOH if you want to take the TOTAL killed in America by guns - 30k ish and thr total killed by ISIS I believe even you would agree that the world wide chances of being killed is higher.

So John, you have point this out about a million times - are you saying that the reason deaths are up in Chicago is because the gun laws were relaxed? YES or NO Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

Yep....history has shown so many religions kill a LOT of people. Islam in itself (just like the Bible) can be read in whatever light you want to read it in. But this isn't the Crusades - we can't undo the Crusades. And people are being killed by extremist. I don't remotely have a clue what to do. I do know that constantly pointing out that Christians kill abortion doctors is a pale comparison to what the extremist Muslims are doing currently. If me and SkyDekker are all over the place today - you are making up for it cause this is spot on. 40 years ago....I don't know if there were large openly gay bars in America....NOW the country is in morning over what happen. Should it of happen sooner? (Gay acceptance)? Your damn right it should have, but don't we have to at least acknowledge that we aren't throwing gays off building here? Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

SkyDekker and I are on a roll today. I'll see your Bullshit and raise you a DOUBLE BULLSHIT. I don't agree with everything the guy said by far but I certainly agree with this Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

So true!!!! You know I hadn't thought of that! It is a great example of what political leaders could do - if they were pulling for America instead of a party. (both sides) Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

ROTGLOL

"Emotional opinion piece" It didn't read that way to me - but it certainly was an opinion. I thought he gave some good examples. It particularly struck me that a moderate Muslim would want to be seen in a different light. You stand a better chance of dying in the WONDERFUL new RV you have than being the next victim.

Ok big guy - let's hear you great thoughts on just HOW the founding fathers fucked up given the time that they wrote the 2 amendment. I'm serious, given the intent - tell me what they should have done different. Horse shit. The constitution has been changed and can be changed - you know that. It's the far RIGHT A-N-D far LEFT that is fucking the whole process up. Middle ground is impossible and it doesn't having much of shit to do with the second amendment. Common sense control - somewhat like Canada has COULD pass in America but the left wants "no guns" and the right wants "machine guns" FWIW although you and I come from different directions on things I generally find your post to be enlightening. But bashing the founding fathers is just dumb (IMO) they wrote a great constitution - they put in mechanism for change. How could they have done better?

If your interested read it, comment....if you are so vested in all things Obama that you won't take the time don't worry about commenting - I'd really like your view AFTER you've read it though.

Yeah our founding fathers were such dumb asses. Jeez I expected better from you for some reason. Our "fucked upping founding fathers" also put in tools that could change the second amendment. BTW reading up on how your country has handles guns it sure seems that ya'll can't totally make up your minds. Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

Interesting read John Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

He was but it didn't fit the spin he wanted to put on it. See Bill is actually related to Bill O'Reily but being a DUCK he has to spin everything in the opposite direction. It's his curse. Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

Ok you got me, I'll be more specific about what drugs should be legalized when YOUR more specific about what gun law's from other country would work here. Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

Hey John - and others who would like to see gun laws changed in America - EVEN the ones that don't live here. Please tell me the country that you believe we should model ourselves after. Be specific as to the rules in that county. Don't worry about the fact that it probably won't work here - just give me YOUR perfect country for gun laws.

This actually is a good point, why is it assume that the CCW people are "suppose" to save the day...... Because John did a wonderful job baiting up the question. The man is a master. Kevin Keenan is my hero, a double FUP, he does so much with so little

Thought these numbers were interesting: "Firearm deaths, however, include suicides, and there are a lot of them. In 2013, there were a total of 33,636 firearm deaths, and 21,175, or 63 percent, were suicides, according to the CDC. Homicides made up 11,208, or 33 percent, of those firearm deaths. The rest were unintentional discharges (505), legal intervention/war (467) and undetermined (281)." http://www.factcheck.org/2015/10/gun-laws-deaths-and-crimes/ So spending money on mental health here in America could certainly help lower deaths by gun. Homicides which would include "mass shootings" 11,208. I don't know how you stop thugs from killing thugs - a total ban on guns and a very strong prison sentence would eventually do it...... Still if half the homicides are crime related(?) you odds are somewhere around .000020339 to be killed by a gun. Of course a lot depends on where you live and HOW you live.

Hey Jerry I'd like to know how many times you have been killed in a mass shooting - I'd bet statistically that is zero. For MOST Americans the odds of them even seeing a gun used is close to statistically zero. How many CC people have killed someone with there weapon - HELL I bet that number is close to statistically zero. You have a lot larger chance to die falling in your house than being killed in a mass shooting. Don't start with stat's - BOTH sides of this argument are full of shit when you look at the numbers.
