We all know it's a tragedy.

The conservative media IS going to have a royal frenzy with this and use it as an argument against the holiday, against black rights and representation in general, and disparage us as a whole. And it is a relevant discussion to this.

But of course you gotta drop in to cape for Republicans as usual.

How am I caping for Republicans? By saying folks should focus on the tragedy instead of being concerned what your political opponent will say.

So because Republicans will come out and say "This shooting incident is horrible. What is going on?", the other side by default has to say "NOPE. Ain't no problem. Republicans just making up stuff again. Everything is fine. What about West Virginia?"?

Please direct us to the Irish and Italian American entertainers who make music about it, brag about the lifestyle, and the audience that loves it. Hell, black rappers, and black people were even glorifying the mob as if that’s something to aspire to. Those other groups shun that lifestyle publicly, not take formed and current mobsters, and play their music. No other group makes music about crime.
Who said anything about them making music about their lifestyle? I said it’s glorified. We have numerous movies about the Italian mafia. TV Shows. People look at these gangsters like Capone, Dillinger, Bonnie and Clyde, Gatti, etc with rose colored glasses.

I hear what you're saying, but ceasefires happen on special occasions sometimes, one famous example being during World War 1 on Christmas.
Thats wild i was just actually reading about that shyt. That was where they not only mutually hit the :whoa::hubie: for the day, but supposedly some folks even crossed lines and broke bread and shyt right?

Yeah i thought that was actually pretty dope too. And im sure there are folks out there with some degree of honor. Even amongst thieves. But sadly good shyt like that is never gonna apply universally, no matter how decent it would be.

Even back then i think i read that its at least contested that cease fire was universal amongst all units.

Its really trifling though how this was painted by the article as some organized celebration. The numbers are also intentionally misleading. 20 victims makes it sound at first glance like this was wide spread fukkery, if u dont stop to consider they mean 20 VICTIMS, with only one or maybe a couple people actually doing the shooting.

The narrative this is supposed to paint is clear is day: see how they like to celebrate their freedom.

And as i said the energy in this thread is appalling and highkey a big part of the problem.

a bunch of pointless arguing going on.
  1. Didn't happen in Chicago
  2. Shooting happened in a conservative suburb of Illinois
  3. Cops were monitoring the event
  4. Cops claim a fight was reported somewhere else and drove to the fight
  5. The shooting then happens at the event
  6. No suspects have been caught, so no-one knows the "race" of the culprit(s). And no one has information on the culprit(s) age or the types of music they listen to.

Yeah back in wartime of old, you had rules you abided by. Even in medieval time, you could put up a certain flag and come over and talk. And you were protected.
