RE: Why CNN Doesn't Cover Shootings In Places Like Chicago
Besides the fact that most if not all of this cities are run by Demoncraps, what other data/statistic do they also have. I'd tell you but I'd be called the R word. It has nothing to do with guns but who the people are who are carrying them. We are so PC that that fact is never, ever mentioned. Why hasn't a study ever been made of what those cities have in common, because it will cause many to deny it.
In El Paso, we (hispanics) are around 80% or more of the population...and we have the lowest murder rate of many major cities of 800k or more. The fact that a man who lived about 500 miles away had to come and commit a crime that we El Pasoans would "probably" never think of committing. Many of us do own guns, I don't. I'm not afraid of them as I was in the military and proved to be a very good shot. I just feel that we don't need them as much as other cities perhaps that's where the 80% of who lives in this city comes into play.
Just writing this post I feel a little weird because of what I've posted but let's use this post as a beginning to a discussion. Use statistic if you like, or whatever you like. Let's see if the reason is what I think is the reason, I won't let you know my reasons, because yes, I could be wrong.

It goes to prove the left is not out to ban or take hand guns.

RE: Why CNN Doesn't Cover Shootings In Places Like Chicago
It’s because neither liberals or conservatives care about black on black crimes (or white on white). It’s only ever brought up here as a “it doesn’t fit their narrative” gotcha and circlejerk bait. In liberal places, it’s only brought up if it’s gonna be a “victim of the system” conversation.
It’s never a show of concern because—let’s face it—you (or they) couldn’t care less if it’s happening or not.

It's a case of owning up to YOUR responsibilities. I can't and won't be a bleeding heart for people that have already been brainwashed into thinking that they're victims by (guess who) white usually rich kids telling them that. I came from the barrio and it wasn't easy-peasy but like many of my peers we strived to better ourselves because no one was going to just give it to us. That only happens to people like Hunter Biden and his ilk. I've done more outlandish jobs that would surprise you. I've even sold human manure as fertilizer trying to make a buck to feed my family. (That was my fault for marrying young) but I didn't become a victim ever. Everything that happened to me was caused by me and my stupid decisions. Thankfully I had God who was looking after me. Believe me if you knew the things I did growing up you'd be looking down on me because you would think you're smarter than that...and you probably are. Consequences my friend is what happens in everything we do and if we don't fly right we'll suffer them.
That's what has to be ingrained in every barrio kid and ghetto kid than to be feeling sorry for them and not really doing them any good. Many of those kids don't have a father figure, that's not so much the case in the barrios as Hispanics are very family oriented. I knew who my father was because he was there in my life from beginning to his end. The same as I've been there for my kids. I gave them a LOT of tough love and told them how things were and sometimes they hated me for it but now they know I was right and they are doing or trying to do the same thing.
Oh, and another thing. One has to not be afraid of Work. That gets you out of many problems and in the end you'll feel proud that you did it on your own. A helping hand sometimes but not forever. Even birds kick their chicks from their nests, and even the Bible tells you that.
