Baltimore Freddie Gray Update

[Inner Dirt]

Funny my personal issue with not being against larger magazines was for target practice or random shooting of intimate objects. It would be nice to just load your magazine while watching a ball game on the couch and not in the field. The fewer clips you have to carry the better. The only flesh and blood animal I have ever shot was the occasional poisonous snake that had the nerve of showing up on my property. The only other times I was happy to be armed was running across the occasional bear in the Southern California mountains, they ran away with out the need to fire a shot.

I don't even think about my guns for self defense now I live in the middle of the woods in central Virginia. You would have to be the dumbest criminal in the world to try to break in a house here, everyone owns guns, you hear gunfire daily from people target practicing and hunters. Lately I have killed a computer tower, and a water heater (how else was I going to drain the water out of the old one?)

I have a few computers in the garage I'd like to shoot.

Don't use standard .22LR rounds you will just wound it and hear it cry in pain. I shot a hard drive with one at 20 yards and it didn't even go all the way through. Unlike your average anti gun liberal I get my ballistic and gun knowledge from actual experience and not watching movies.

I did belong to a online sports forum with a mostly liberal membership. There was a lot of off topic discussion, whenever gun issues were discussed most all of them believed Hollywood BS. Examples, most believed typical pistol rounds were just as dangerous if thrown in a fire than if fired through a gun. A shot from a .357 at center mass can propel a full gown man several yards backward at a high rate of speed. You will be safe hiding behind a car door if someone is shooting at you with a hunting rifle.

And those are the kind of people who want more gun laws?

The "community" has really learned a lot from the recent love fest following the riots. As of May 15th, there have been 100 murders in the city as compared to 71 at the same time last year. Naerly ALL black on black. And the beat goes on !!

27 people shot so far in Baltimore over the Memorial long weekend creates
May as the deadliest month since 1999, 35 dead. pop. 620,000.

Winnipeg, where I reside is often referred to as the murder capitol of Canada
35 is about yearly average. pop. under 800,000.

All I can say is WOW.

What percentage of Winnipeg is black? Just curious.

[woodtoo]

We have a higher than normal # of Aboriginals (native Indian) and a recent
influx of Somalians ,who make up a gang element in the core.
All in all probably 5 % black. Just sayin.

The people being killed here are almost exclusively SCUM. Drug dealers, drug users, pimps, fugitives, etc... Nobody really cares, including me. I hope the killing continues

I heard an interview on CNN this morning where they are demonstrating in Baltimore today because arrests are down 50% and cops are not stopping the rising crime rate.




Duh?!

I said the cops would react. They sure are. Lots of police cars sitting around idling I bet.

This is going to get worse.

Just wait 'til most if not all are acquitted from the death of poor outstanding citizen Freddie Gray. I know one cop(25 years on the job) who has his retirement papers drawn up and will submit them the day the case goes to trial.

What does that prove, exactly?

I'll try to make it simple for you. It means that when most, if not all, are acquitted, rioting will commence. He told me he wants no part of being on duty and not being able to respond to rock and bottle throwing from these animals. Hope that helps !
