What's not going to happen? The police to leave us alone? It happens.
On my block I can be outside and drink a bottle of wine, and no one will call the police. I can carry a handgun (a rifle will probably get me rung up) and I'll be fine.
Back in Detroit I used to sit on my porch with my AK and I was left alone. I hardly ever saw a cop on my block in Detroit. Only when someone was killed, they came, then they left. I prefer it that way.
Yeah, I've worked in those neighborhood... Where the cops show up in the morning to collect the bodies and then leave.. Baltimore comes to mind and yeah, I've been in South Houston too, so I know what you're talking about, but you will eventually be invaded..
No - I don't think it's got to do with race but with government dependency. Whites can be just as thrilled with ultra-large government and can believe it takes great care of them as blacks and hispanics.
I have noticed that rural blacks and hispanics are quite likely to believe in gun ownership, and they do own them. They also own them for all the same reasons that whites own them.
So you think ~70% of Blacks & Hispanics are gov't dependent?
No one considers me a white guy but you're free to consider me a white guy.
Okay.

I don't want the police in my own business. You wouldn't understand because you're from an area that has a different mentality. I was in Chechnya from 1999 to 2002. I didn't want the police then and sure as hell wouldn't want the police ever.
But seriously... if the zombies hit Houston, wouldn't you want police back up?
Why would you want to do this? Caucasoid birth numbers are extremly low, background check and mental health evaluations will just make the caucasoid birthrate lower than it already is, Alot of your people are mentally ill.

There is no money in policing us. We pay little taxes and want no part of the police. All tighter scrutiny means is wasted money and policemen in bodybags. The only way we're invaded is through gentrification. Then we move somewhere else. All we want is to be left alone. We don't like the police. That's what unifies us.

I'm capable of defending myself. The only help I want is from my blood family and close friends. I don't ask anyone else to stand by me, and any police in my neighborhood are unwanted.

Slightly less than that are. Both have the same high rate of illegitimacy. I live in a hispanic region where over 80% of children qualify for free school meals because their families receive food stamps. Most births are to Medicaid. And obviously these seem people would kneel down to worship both Clintons and Obama.
Where people work for their own living and are being destroyed by high taxes, there is obviously less trust and utter faith in politicians.
What I don't understand -- with that Tuskogee experienment and institutionalized racism (government racism) and the fact that inner city unemployment rates are so high, is how these people have come to trust so sincerely in government. You'd think there would be some sceptism of policitians, but instead you see adoration and complete faith. They believe that Feinstein and Obama and Biden really really care for them. They trust them with all their hearts and souls.
One has nothing to do w/ the other. Do you think people in place w/ a lot of gun violence would be safer w/ less guns in the streets or more guns in their house? Keep in mind that most gun crimes in the city happen in public w/ people caught unawares, not in the home.

I know Republicans who are supportive of gun control legislation, and I know Democrats who think that any new gun control legislation is useless.
And the people that are the most heavily affected by gun violence want gun control. What does that tell you?
Blacks & Hispanics are the biggest group of victims of gun violence in America. They tend to live in areas with higher than normal gun violence and criminal activity. Their support of gun-control measures sits around ~70%
According to the Conservative talking point (mostly coming from safe, rural America), we need to increase access & # of guns so people are safe from the criminals, otherwise only criminals will be armed. Yet the people that actually have to deal w/ criminals & gun violence overwhelmingly disagree with that position, and support gun control.
Which side is more credible in this discussion on what would be the best solution to tackle gun violence? People that deal w/ gun violence at a significantly lower rate or people that deal w/ gun violence at a significantly higher rate
lol so afraid lol trying to understand well here you go. Hope you are not hip hop impaired:

And exactly who do they think is going to protect them if they live where there is high violence?
Remember -- Washington DC, NY, Chicago and the high crime areas have gun control laws. How do these people think Obama and Feinstein and Hillary are taking care of them now?
