Bingo. Folks defending and enabling these losers is a huge problem. They cry about violence, says something needs done, the streets are dangerous, but aren’t willing to do anything about it, lol. I always love the interviews where family members and neighborhood folks paint them as salt of the earth folks.

If you don’t like that I would suggest moving elsewhere
As I read this, you can just tell it is trolling. You don't believe a word of it, but you are just trolling others.

You hate Pittsburgh and will troll the forum forever. It is your M O.

Have a nice holiday. Here is a nice article for you.

I could probably post 50 stabbings this year alone in Allegheny County. Many fatal. Stabbing someone to death is very up close and personal. You really have to be an ugly person to look someone in the eyes that close and try and take their last breath away.

I think we need to just get WAY tougher on all violent crime to the point of massive police presence. Stop, question and frisk and a host of other tactics. Law abiding shouldn't have to live with all this violence. If it would stop the murders of all the youth, I am happy to have a cop stop me and question me. I usually enjoy talking to them anyway as they have amazing stories to tell. I don't know how they do those jobs to be honest. WOW!

I guess I don’t understand the point of this thread. I still think the OP is scared and lives a life of paranoia.



The point is people are DYING, some of them innocent people who are just in the wrong place at the wrong time. So many people are crying about guns instead of addressing the real problem. Blaming guns or just throwing up our hands saying it is too late does nothing to solve the problem. It makes it worse.

Many times in these situations there are people who have information about who committed the violent act but say nothing.

You have to be wilfully blind to live in a nice neighborhood in the city near the trouble areas and imagine the violence won't engulf you eventually. It's like living next to a volcano. Someday, your luck will run out.

You`re turning on their NRA enablers. Good for you that you understand that all shootings are gun related.

In the US we do have nice areas adjacent to fault lines, wild fires, and hurricanes. Luck running out is a common occurrence.

Because they’re scared, yet they want something done and aren’t willing to do it.

LMAO. Guns don’t fire on their own. People use guns so of course they are. Unfortunately, the violent criminals use these guns for violence, and continue to do so, and the enablers and powers that be let them continue to live in society.
