I'm an average-sized woman who lived in "ghettos" for many years - alone and unarmed (with a 40lb dog for the last few years). I survived, and never even felt that threatened or scared. So I guess I'm tougher than you?

At the least, I'm much less paranoid and more used to living among diverse neighbors. Most of my neighbors in those towns were quite nice, but you probably picture "Boyz N The Hood" whenever you think of a non-white neighborhood. LOL

P.S. I'm not anti-gun, and have shot a few at the range in my time. I just don't care or feel the need to own one, for a variety of reasons.

The one and only time I've been to a ghetto area (in LA), I was shot at as I was getting into my car after eating at a Haitian restaurant. I didn't see who did it since it was dark but the bullet hit the pavement next to my foot. Needless to say I'm never going back.

Wow, amazing how just a tiny bit of red meat has brought out the Fox hyenas - OK so now you can start throwing around the other Fox scripts, like how you are overtaxed solely due to poor inner-city blacks (even though wealthy whites get more of your money).
Here's some news for you, y'all Fox regressive dinosaurs are losing the battle, and your increasing desperation reveals itself day by day for all to see. Enjoy indulging in your dark worlds with the time you have left on this planet.

None of them will be caught most likely. No one will be willing to identify them.

Sooooo, does that mean I can call the racists on this thread what they are? Should keep me busy for a while, but that's cool.
Do you think people even care anymore? Now a days if you speak the English language you will call them racist. People stopped listening.

I have faith. Someone will come forward. Things like this are usually recorded. Sometimes the filthy people involved even brag on it and get caught.
This horrible cowardly attack has nothing to do with ones skin color.

I have black belts in 3 different styles of Karate. In a crowd situation? I'll take a 45 cap. It's only in the movies where 1 guy beats up 10 and walks away. I love the martial arts and feel that I am stronger and smarter because of my training. That said I also no the limits.
