Andre Jute It's a slam-dunk case. You could argue it, but to be fair you'd need a not-dixiecrat-controlled major US city for comparison. -- Andrew Muzi www.yellowjersey.org/ Open every day since 1 April, 1971 Historically, Tulsa and Oklahoma City had a violent crime rates nearly twice that of Portland. This is a bad year, obviously, and I haven't compared current statistics. I have (counting) five shooting cases on my desk -- all since the pandemic, four in strip club parking lots. I represent an insurer that writes strip clubs. it used to be they just fought, but now its guns. Like I said, this year is an outlier, and we've had Democrat-ish (its non-partisan) mayors for the last 40 years. -- Jay Beattie. That's a very tough situation for a business owner: https://apnews.com/4c7a568bfa07c98b90c0292c7e592923 (just down the road from here) Similarly, an immigrant of my acquaintance, with his extended family, literally built a restaurant (brick; took almost two years) and successful business. After 20 years of paying taxes and employing people, the permits were yanked after a couple of thugs shot up the parking lot after hours one night. I expect a strip club manager to keep the customers' hands off the dancers but not to search every car coming into the parking lot, frisk the people inside or interrogate them. That's an unreasonable standard. -- Andrew Muzi www.yellowjersey.org/ Open every day since 1 April, 1971 That's like stoking vigilantism and then decrying it because the politicians don't have the balls to keep a proper police force recruited, staffed, supplied and motivated. What a shower of dialectical fools. -- AJ These strip club shootings are usually intimate affairs with no wind-up or little wind-up, and the reason for the shooting often is not obvious. Having a "proper police force" with balls (!) would do nothing more than speed apprehension of the shooter. It's not the Sharks and the Jets with Russ Tamblyn snapping his fingers and officer Krupke telling the boys to break it up. One shooting was inside a closed strip club with two young men doing maintenance and remodeling, and one shot the other. They were friends. Increased police presence may prevent certain shootings, but not others. I've watched the video, and it is often a WTF moment where you cannot tell why on earth one guy is shooting the other guy. In one case in particular, a group of guys in a parking lot all look like friends -- and then shots. There is a usually a back-story. Right. It used to be fists. Now it's guns. So what we need is for more people to have guns?? Sheesh. -- - Frank Krygowski Well, as is usual, you're Franky-on-the-spot to tell others how they should live. So you're defending shooting someone who offends you in a strip club parking lot? Wow. No, that's a crime and no one here suggests it. Then again taking second place is pretty ugly: https://abc7chicago.com/would-be-car...-loop/5272059/ "The shooting happened at around 3:15 a.m. Friday on Ida B. Wells and Clark Street after a man in a Volkswagen rear-ended a BMW. According to police, the driver of the BMW got out to inspect the damage and when he went back to get his cell phone, the Volkswagen driver approached with a handgun, demanded his keys and pushed him into the vehicle. Both men were inside the vehicle when police said the 41-year-old BMW driver retrieved his handgun and shot the 22-year-old man in the head." -- Andrew Muzi www.yellowjersey.org/ Open every day since 1 April, 1971 |

The Denizens of the Sewer took a free and democratic vote and decided by a margin of 100% to nil that they don't want Krygowski. "We're decent, honest slime," said their spokesman. "We have no intention of letting scum like Krygowski infect neighbourhoods where we're bringing up our children." .. Andre Jute Dunno what the world is coming to. |
