That makes it okay?I'm sure this kid's parents will find solace in your quick dismissal of his life.

Kinda like San Bernardino victims and families will take solice in 700's sarcastic cartoon in another thread yet, you failed to point that one out! Why?

IAM brethren, perhaps?

 

[700UW]

Oh so its ok for you buddy Pinocchio to post all kinds of tasteless crap cartoons, and you cant take someone showing your RWNJ Demigods to be full of it like they are.
 
Hypocrite.

Ummm yeah, what you stated above has nothing remotely to do with what Trump said.

I'm always amused when you pull the trigger so fast on your spastic replies you wind up shooting yourself in the foot.

Keep it coming!!!

It's not a gun problem, it a people problem.

 
Wrong dell.
It's not a people problem, it's a REPUBLICAN PROBLEM !

Gangbangers vote Republican?

Fix the gang problem, and you'd see a huge drop in gun violence. But nobody wants to address the gang problem, which has its roots in an urban culture that rewards single parenting by providing incentives not to work or be married.

A 20 year old study found the following:
 

A review of the empirical evidence in the professional literature of the social sciences gives policymakers an insight into the root causes of crime. Consider, for instance:

• Over the past thirty years, the rise in violent crime parallels the rise in families abandoned by fathers.
• High-crime neighborhoods are characterized by high concentrations of families abandoned by fathers.
• State-by-state analysis by Heritage scholars indicates that a 10 percent increase in the percentage of children living in single-parent homes leads typically to a 17 percent increase in juvenile crime.
• The rate of violent teenage crime corresponds with the number of families abandoned by fathers.
• The type of aggression and hostility demonstrated by a future criminal often is foreshadowed in unusual aggressiveness as early as age five or six.
• The future criminal tends to be an individual rejected by other children as early as the first grade who goes on to form his own group of friends, often the future delinquent gang.

On the other hand:

• Neighborhoods with a high degree of religious practice are not high-crime neighborhoods.
• Even in high-crime inner-city neighborhoods, well over 90 percent of children from safe, stable homes do not become delinquents. By contrast only 10 percent of children from unsafe, unstable homes in these neighborhoods avoid crime.
• Criminals capable of sustaining marriage gradually move away from a life of crime after they get married.
• The mother's strong affectionate attachment to her child is the child's best buffer against a life of crime.
• The father's authority and involvement in raising his children are also a great buffer against a life of crime.
• The scholarly evidence, in short, suggests that at the heart of the explosion of crime in America is the loss of the capacity of fathers and mothers to be responsible in caring for the children they bring into the world.

That was 20 years ago. It hasn't gotten any better, and the fixes are everything that Liberals are afraid of -- faith based communities where marriage and parenting are more important than dependence on government.

Ok, so what would  you do about the gun problem in the US?
I bet you would want to arm everyone and have it like the wild wild west.

 
The "wild west" would mark a vast improvement. In the whole history of "the wild west"; far fewer people were recklessly shot to death than is the case in just the cities nowadays having the strictest gun "control" laws on the books in almost any given month, at most two to three. Hmm....maybe people were less motivated to "clear leather" in the "wild west" due to the very high potential for others to offer their responding "opinions" in immediately lethal fashion?

"The United States is on track to have its deadliest traffic year since 2007, the National Safety Council says, with nearly 19,000 people killed as a result of motor vehicle accidents between January and June—a 14 percent increase over the same period last year."
 
Your point is well taken. It's now made more obvious than ever that we must immediately enact a whole lot more "sensible car control" laws! Come to think on it a moment further; given that driving a car's not even a basic Right, but rather merely a privilege, the clearly moral thing to do here is ban cars completely, so as to prevent all those tragic deaths....Right?

There is nothing "lol" about a teenager being mowed down.

 
Wow.  He didn't have a gun...and it wasn't even clear if he was part of a gang...so he gave his life to save someone else. His death is dismissed by petey as "gang related" (although I rarely see a cop hold back tears discussing the death of a gang banger).    If he DID have a gun...we still dismiss it as "gang related".  We had a 3 year old that was killed in a drive by shooting here in KC a while back.  It was "gang related".  Guess they start them young in those gangs. And I guess that black lives really don't matter. 

 

[EastUS1]

 
Wow. ......so he gave his life to save someone else. ......

 
Indeed KC, and THAT is what should be both fully honored and remembered about that courageous young Man, now sadly lost to us all at only 15 years of life.

Tell that to petey...he seems to believe that this story is enough to "laugh out loud" about and go on some rant defending guns (except in the hands of young black males).

From ANY moral perspective; how DARE you or any even attempt to diminish or "side track" what that brave youngster did for purely "political", BS "reasons"?

 

[Dog Wonder]

Gang related.

Didn't read that did you?

Let me know when criminal gangs start abiding by existing gun laws.

 
 

Why does the left want to disarm law abiding citizens who have the basic rights to protect themselves?

 
 

Call out your own.

Have you not read the responses?  I'm the first person who pointed out that the kid died saving others.  Petey says "gang related"....I only hope that HIS kid isn't in "the wrong place at the wrong time" and gets hit by some drive by ahole.   I didn't mention gun control.  I only mentioned that it sure seems easy to dismiss the death of a young black male...regardless of how brave the act because 'it was gang related".   And if you want to give **** to someone, give it to petey for dismissing this kids act as "gang related".  

 

[EastUS1]

 
 ....... I only mentioned that it sure seems easy to dismiss the death of a young black male...regardless of how brave the act ......

 
It's sad indeed that you even care about such a fine youngster's "color" or "race". All I see is a courageous young person we all are much poorer for the loss of.
 
".regardless of how brave the act" Defined that young Man's final and finest moments. Don't you even DARE to trivialize him/his life for some BS political/social "agenda". NOTHING gives anyone that right.
 
It would take a "liberal" to at all seek to use this young Man's sacrifice of his very life to somehow be perverted for "politically correct" BS. WTF difference does it make about his skin color? I rather doubt that "ethnicity" was much on his mind at the time, so why yours now?
 
Liberals just plain make me sick sometimes.
