48 people shot last week, 5 killed in Chicago. Will anyone protest about that at the DNC Convention?

Of course not. If the locals do protest the horrendous violence in Chicago, they won't get any coverage. All the attention will be on the Pro Hamas demonstrators who will take over. I say fuck them, Americans being slaughtered week after week, year after year is what should be protested especially since Democrats control Chicago.

And who is putting out solutions for dealing with it?

The Republicans actively oppose any of these solutions to deal with the high murder rate.
 
There's no kickback or money laundering in helping black, inner city dwellers.

It's win-win for the plantation owners... better odds at keeping the darkies from dating-raping their daughters and it keeps the car-jackings and home invasions down in the white suburbs....

Briben probably would have helped (before he went into a coma), but his customary fee is 10% and who can afford that?

But black lives matter.... we've got scorched earth to prove it.

Provide ANY proof that the GOP has "actively" opposed a solution to the inner city murder rate brought forth by Democrats.

Depends what you mean by "proof", I guess. I can make an argument, but it's a very complex issue that would require a lot of sources of information to be brought together and analysed.

I'd say the first is gun policy. Yes, there's a right to own a gun in the US. This is part of the problem. I doubt you need me to go prove that the Republicans oppose restrictive gun laws that Democrats would want to impose.

Then you have to look at education.

Education-


"Districts in high-poverty areas, which serve larger shares of students of color, get less funding per student than districts in low-poverty areas, which predominantly serve white students, highlighting the system’s inequity."
The color of skin here doesn't matter. White people in poor areas are just as disadvantaged as black kids. Vance, in his book, wrote about how his disadvantaged white people suffered the same problems as black disadvantaged people.


PA wanted to change education funding.

"Monday’s vote was split largely along party lines, with all Democrats voting in favor and all but five Republicans opposing the bill. The bill now goes to the Republican-dominated Senate, where its fate is in question."

Essentially they'll knock it down.

Republicans prefer a voucher system which is, essentially, a system where rich people can funnel money out of the political for no reason.

Policing - When it comes to policing I don't think the Democrats have the right idea. But Republicans certainly don't. Look at policing in other countries, like the UK. If you want to be a police officer in the UK you have to have certain qualifications and be a part of the national force.


"Qualifications to become a police offer includes a minimum of five GCSEs between grades A to C (or equivalent). It's essential that these five GCSEs include the compulsory subjects of English, maths and science."

GCSEs are exams at the age of 16, and you need to achieve an average level.

"have A-level qualifications or equivalent experience." A-Levels are the exams taken at the age of 18. You need to have reached a certain academic level.

"Some A-Levels beneficial for aspiring police officers include Law, to increase understanding of the legal system, and Sociology which helps in understanding the issues faced daily by communities."

If you have certain subjects, you're more likely to be accepted.

"While having a degree is not mandatory to become a police officer, alternative pathways like the Police Constable Degree Apprenticeship offers on-the-job training while earning a BSc Degree in Professional Policing Practice."

Having a degree is also more likely to see you become a police officer. A Welsh person I know with a degree failed to become a police officer, even though she's black belt karate (or some martial art), very sporty, she became a fire fighter instead.

"you can't apply to become a police officer if you have tattoos that people could take offence to, have certain criminal convictions or if you're experiencing debt problems."

And certain limitations.

So the people becoming police officers are, generally, the better half of society.

In the US it seems like you just need to have a buddy who's able to hire people as police. Not for all jobs, but certainly at a more local level.

Ghettos - The way cities are made is a big problem.



Started with the New Deal. You can say "ah, but that was the Democrats"... but really the current Rep v. Dem didn't exist then. White southern racists were Democrats, for example, but in the west liberals were Democrats, so it was a weird union.

"In 1933, faced with a housing shortage, the federal government began a program explicitly designed to increase — and segregate — America's housing stock. Author Richard Rothstein says the housing programs begun under the New Deal were tantamount to a "state-sponsored system of segregation.""

Again, I'm not saying the Democrats are doing anything about this. I haven't done enough research into this, but I don't see the obvious signs that anything is happening in terms of city planning to change how cities are, change how different classes interact with each other.

The problem is the car rules, and people like living in their open space communities where houses cost a certain amount of money across the board. Rich kids go to rich schools and this entrenches the idea of class communities, which causes ghettos, which fuels cycles of violence.

Certainly the Republicans are more likely to push these policies of segregation, they're more likely to oppose policies that try and change this.

Your response is typical of the deflection I encounter discussing topics with Democrat/Liberals. I appreciate that you are not just being a mindless troll and you bring up a couple of good points about the problems in inner cities, particularly Chicago. But that city is uniquely corrupt at the local level, and Federal level gun law changes and throwing more Federal money at them won't change anything. Now on top of the massive problems they already had, the Feds are dumping tens of thousands of illegals into the city taking what resources the poor CITIZENS need to survive.

They got rid of Lori Lightfoot only to replace her with an even more Leftist Mayor Johnson who does nothing but make pretty speeches that mean absolutely nothing. The illegal drug trade is what has kept the inner city nightmare going for half a century. Why isn't the FBI tracking down the source of the drugs flooding Chicago? Simple, they are too busy working on Democrat priorities like getting Trump and chasing down J6 attendees.

No American citizen should have to live in the squalor and violence of South Chicago. Just shrugging your shoulders and saying "Meh 48 people shot 6 dead, sounds about right for Chicago" is wrong and un-American.

Fuck off.

On this forum most people just do the typical Reps v. Dems bullshit. I actually made an argument and your first response is "It's deflection".

The US is fucked when the vast majority of people can not only not understand the issues, they don't even fucking try.
 
Of course not. If the locals do protest the horrendous violence in Chicago, they won't get any coverage. All the attention will be on the Pro Hamas demonstrators who will take over. I say fuck them, Americans being slaughtered week after week, year after year is what should be protested especially since Democrats control Chicago.

The reason for the violence falls squarely on the soft-on-crime democrats and D.A.'s. They are deliberately releasing violent offenders back on the street for that very purpose. They know that the criminal who used a gun in the crime, will simply be let out so that he can be given or purchase a ghost gun or stolen gun and commit another violent crime.
Why are they doing this you ask? If they can get enough gun violence committed by the repeat violent offenders that the public gets fed up, they can achieve their goal of taking the firearms away from those who never commit crimes with firearms.. It's deliberate. To them the goal is to disarm the people who aren't threat, to implement their Marxist-Globalist agenda.
 
Dem mayor, Dem governor, Dem POTUS, Dem shithole.
Until the people in the large democrat run cities vote out the democrat politicians and school board members, the problem can't be solved.
Until then, the republicans can't do a thing. Republicans need a super majority in the democrat run states to make a difference.
One problem in the republican party is the RINO's. The Republican In Name Only politicians need to be censured by the Republican Party and told to go over to the democrats where they belong.
