nice charts and stuff. This is still a pretty tame version of LA compared to the 80's and 90's. How soon people forget.After a pandemic-year surge in murders, Los Angeles sees even more bloodshed

Give it time. And ARs are for amateurs, not to mention the bad rep they have. I prefer to call down the thunder.
Yeah, things were so bad that people in the inner cites everywhere went from screaming about police brutality in the 60s and 70s to screaming for more po-po with big guns to patrol their streets and put the hammer down on the bad-boy homies. 100% this will happen again in this decade. I am not being sarcastic.
I bet it wasn't funny to those who died in police custody.
Not that you would give a sh!t.
Defund is not the answer
Rampant crime isn't funny, not that you would give a sh!t
Except defund doesn't mean what you think it means.
Policing needs to change, nobody is saying that it shouldn't exist.
WHAT!?!?!?
I like to think this is something that only happens very infrequently but gets talked about a lot
But you’re a reliable witness of this 4 times?
wtf?!?!?!
This is outrageous
I am outraged
And, personally, I’d avoid returning to anywhere that was happening.
yet another signal that ammo will become the next currency
It means what the protesters were screaming about
Don't try to put yourself in the shoes of the black protester
Probably a pedestrian gate on the right. Piles of debris tell me it's not finished.
Based on the stats you posted above, I'm guessing if you are not a black or latino male dealing drugs your chances of being murdered in LA are about as low as they ever were. I'm not scared and don't need a gun to make me feel safe. Common sense can go a long way in ensuring personal safety.
Im just a dirty white boy who lives in the middle of nowhere Colorado now. And I own firearms because:
A) I’ve always loved to shoot them since I was young (cool Uncle).
B) If you told me someday it would be real hard to buy a guitar, even if I had no intention of ever playing Id probably go buy one because.
C) I plan on exploring the vast Nat Forests that surround where I live and if you’re gonna find trouble (bears, cougar, tweakers) that’s where it will happen and if it does Help Is Not Coming
D) I don’t want my sh!t stolen. I also don’t want to kill anyone so if the sound of a shotgun getting racked isn’t enough of a deterrent you’ve got some beanbags heading your way after a warning shot because while it’s safe here it’s also the poorest county in the state with the same drug problems as everywhere else and crime is on the rise
5) when I found out it was completely legal to own a street sweeper/riot gun, sawed off shotgun I mean firearm, and 9mm pistol with high capacity mags, I said
It's kind of funny how the same people who (correctly) gripe about media driven covid fear narratives turn around and sh!t their pants about media driven crime fear narratives.
