well about 100 something got shot in chicago the last two weeks so many dead...nobody cares


who's been governing chicago for decades? which groups/ethnicities are shooting each other constantly in chicago?

the shootings in chicago are gang violence, taking place between predominantly black and hispanic gropups. the many victims of shootings in chicago are an accusation of the weak-on-crime democratic mayor, and of the failures of liberal ideas of peaceful and enriching multiculturalism. liberals are the ones who get exposed by the situation in chicago, and this is the exact reason why we hear so little about it.

Plus nobody cares about blacks and hispanics dying, not even blacks and hispanics

If only the UK would let Russia come in and drop nerve gas all over their Muslim communities this would never have happened.

well, the study I cited via the WaPo article did ask one question to both muslims and christians: "do you think the other side wants to destroy your culture?"
54% of muslims said that they indeed think the west is out to destroy the muslim culture, while only 23% of christians said the same thing about islam.


and no, I dont think that 65% of westerners would say that their religious belief is above the laws of their country.


Interesting post. I think both sides were pretty spot-on.

An important part is missing:
Nobody said sweet words to the British.

I think they need some sweet words.

"Muslims" is not a religious community.
It's either chiites or sunnites.

It's always been that way. If it ain't the Muslims or the IRA it's the druggies and the gangs. Like many capitals it's a place people go to get rich or get lost. It's not a place for people who care about people.


I'm not sure if it's always been that way. I remember being in London as a kid and it was really a majestic city, one of the best in the world.

I was there again a year ago for a meeting and the juxtaposition was incredible. The city was dirty, crowded, and didn't feel safe.

London has always has its problems but I feel they've been exacerbated significantly over the years, to the point where the negatives now outweigh the positives.

Back in the 70's there was an article in Scientific American, of an experiment on the dangers of over population.

They used mice for the experiment. They placed them in a restricted environment at an equivalent population density to say a small town. The mice all got along peacefully etc.
Then they increased the population density to that of a large city, say New York. The mice became agitated, started stealing each others food and mates, started killing each other etc.

Conclusion: Higher population density is bad juju.

I'm not saying it's definitely the case, but there's a big difference between seeing things as a kid and as an adult. Kids are innocent and generally ignorant of danger. If you were there with parents, ask them if they felt as safe.

by the way, are the police officers in these areas, where the recent attacks happened, finally carrying firearms?
