    And interestingly -

    https://www.foxnews.com/us/rocheste...war-leaves-at-least-2-dead-14-wounded-reports

    So here we have another mass shooting that progressives and MSM don't seem to have a particular interest in. We know what that typically means. It's interesting to see the reaction (or non reaction) between this incident and the incident I've highlighted above. What an odd contrast, all things considered.

    I saw this story on another website a few minutes ago (forget which) and no big headlines elsewhere or no description of shooter, so you know who did it. Shhh... don't tell nobody.

    Just a Local Story that has ZERO to do with BLM, Etc.

    Obviously it is a big story in Rochester, and I hope the perps are swiftly brought to justice.

    Shooting up parties is typically something white people don't do. I'm not saying it never happens, but when it does happen it usually doesn't involve white people.

    With that said and the assumption made, is blm going to storm out to Rochester and make a stink, riot and burn the place down? Or will the left in general find a way to blame this on the police, conservatives and Trump?

    Well everything is a local story. What happens next depends on how big a deal media and politicians want to make of it.

    You're correct. If this turns out to be black on black murders, then blm will make sure they have nothing to do with it.

    This is going straight in the memory hole.

    Because some black lives matter less than others.

    Alcohol and gunpowder don't mix, particularly among some members of the population.

    It's because white people fill ghettos with gun and liquor stores.

    So my question is, is it our turn for free stuff, bonfire rallies and smacking really old people in the head and drinking and eating other people ribs and chicken at BBQ joints?

    And here is what President Trump promised:

    He promised Mexico will pay for the wall – during Trump presidency the US trade deficit with Mexico is bigger than during Obama.

    He promised beautiful, better, cheaper health care.

    He promised to eliminate the federal debt in 8 years – meantime the federal debt is growing.

    He promised the coronavirus miraculously will disappear in April.

    He promised he won’t have time to play golf if elected president.

    He promised he’d cut your taxes, and that the super-rich like him would pay more.

    He promised he would boost economic growth by 4 percent a year.

    He promised that anyone who wants a test for COVID will get one.

    He said he would hire “only the best people.” He has fired a record number of his own Cabinet and White House picks, and then called them “whackos,” “dumb as a rock,” and “not mentally qualified.” Six of them have been charged with crimes.

    He said he’d drain the swamp. Instead, he’s brought into his administration more billionaires, CEOs, and Wall Street moguls than in any administration in history, and he’s filled departments and agencies with former lobbyists, lawyers, and consultants who are crafting new policies for the same industries they used to work for.

    He promised to protect Americans with pre-existing conditions. His Justice Department is trying to repeal the entire Affordable Care Act, including protections for people with pre-existing conditions.

    He promised to lock up Hillary Clinton for using a private email server.

    He promised “six weeks of paid maternity leave to any mother with a newborn child whose employer does not provide the benefit.

    He said he’d force companies to keep jobs in America, and that there would be consequences for companies that shipped jobs abroad. Since he took office, companies like GE, Carrier, Ford, and Harley Davidson have continued to outsource thousands of jobs while still receiving massive tax breaks.

    He promised to end the opioid crisis. Americans are now more likely to die from an opioid overdose than a car accident.

    He said he’d release his tax returns.

    He promised to enact term limits for all members of Congress. He has not even tried to enact term limits.

    He promised that China would pay for tariffs on imported goods. His trade war has cost U.S. consumers $34 billion a year and cost American taxpayers $22 billion in subsidies for farmers hurt by the tariffs.

    But his best achievement has been triggering dems/leftist/libs/progs/etc like never before. How about taking your off topic post and starting a thread with it?

    Supply and demand.

    If they were filled with book stores and learning labs, nobody would ever visit.

    This barely made local news here.

    Seriously.

    If a white guy had walked up and executed three black dudes who were eating dinner on a restaurant patio, it'd make national news.

    I even saw people on the Louisville reddit making excuses for this guy.

    The same people who wanted Kavanaugh hanged because some woman claimed he raped her 30 years ago are the same people who will excuse this action because the person who committed it is black.

    Just come with a built in excuse button...

    How can this be?
    New York has ALL the "common sense gun control laws".
    Why didn't these "common sense gun control laws" prevent his shooting?
    What "common sense gun control law" would have?
    ^^^^
    4 questions that the anti-gun left will not address.

    Question: Will this be considered a matter of "left wing violence" and/or "left wing terrorism"?

    Screen Shot 2020-09-20 at 5.28.11 PM.png

    We all know this incident we be written off as "street crime", and thrown in the memory hole, and, the people who will completely ignore this, are the same people who will claim that "right wing extremists" are the biggest terrorist threat.

    It's easy to see right wing extremists as the bigger threat when you just ignore all the left wing terrorism, or classify it as "other than terrorism" as a matter of political convenience.
