Mr. Viking,

And they wonder why nobody wants to invest in the inner cities. They be stealing dog food in Oakland!


Best regards,

They be thinking it be sandwich spread.

Mr. West has certainly called it. This president and his racist administration have done vast damage to this country. Two more years to come....

I am afraid this kind of damage is irreversible.
Like many European countries there are so many (not sure what the politically correct term is) towelies in some areas that even police don't bother going in.

Interesting how the likes of Al Sharpton picks his battles,if there's no money to be made then why bother.
Bill Cosby? Even ole Al is staying away from that train wreck.

As I have said before, I'm proud that as a nation we reached a point where we elected a black president, something that could never have happened decades ago. I just think we elected the wrong black (or half-black) president. It should have been Allen West.

Think of our weakened international position now and how different it likely would be had Allen West been president for the last 6 years.

There's a haole in the woodpile somewhere on this Bill Cosby story, why would a man with all that wealth and fame have to drug and rape a woman, just doesn't make sense, he has more than enough money to hire a $1000.00 a night hooker anytime he wants, and he was 67 years old when this was supposed to have happened, as my friend Jerrbear would say, Mos' strange :?

Mr. Viking,

The total lack of respect for public and private property is unnerving. I will shoot anyone who tries to damage my property. As a sissified society, we would rather coddle our criminals instead of punishing them. The best way to confront a problem is to eliminate the problem. After the great 1906 San Francisco earthquake (I'm sure Mr. Natcherly remembers this), General Funston made the order to shoot to kill all suspected looters. We need more men like General Funston.

Best regards,

Bonz

Interesting clip from 1992. What struck me was the attitude of the anchors, especially the female. She was most concerned about the legality of the weapons and what risk they would pose to the LAPD and National Guard. Unless the PD and Guard were to loot that store, I can't see that any risk existed. Her attitude showed a complete disregard of the right to defend oneself and one's property from a violent, mindless mob. Typical of a dyed in the wool lib. Her ilk lives on.....

Right square on the head :!:

She didn't seem at all concerned about the legality of the weapons the looters had, a definite kool aid drinker for sure, had those people not defended their businesses they would have lost not only lost their stores, but probably their lives as well.
I remember reading that they fired something like 500 shots in the air and ground and killed 4 looters, if memory serves me correct, the looters gave them a wide berth after that :D

To set the record straight, I was not personally on hand for that April 18 event. :lol:
They named some stuff after Funston, an avenue, a fort, and the dog park that is adjacent to the old fort. No such honors are accorded to Mayor Eugene Schmitz who actually issued the "shoot to kill" order thereby providing political cover for the Army and local police. (Who would want to live on Schmitz Street anyway?) There were reports that some people were erroneously shot while retrieving their own possessions, but they were greatly in the minority. No after the fact second guessing in the press, by the USAG or any of that crap. There was, however, a coverup. Many more than 3000 were killed. Some make it 10 times as many.
