Los Angeles crimes have seeped into the wealthiest of neighborhoods, rocking residents and being compared to dystopian movie franchise "The Purge." Residents have flocked to the city’s only gun store in response, arming themselves as a last-ditch effort for protection even though the city has a long track record of supporting liberal policies and gun control. "Although that is a part of my living, I get no pleasure whatsoever by having a 60-, 70-year-old woman walk into my store … who looks terrified, and say, ‘I have never liked guns. In fact, I've even hated guns. I would have never considered buying one.

Where's the outrage from BLM?

I can see what is coming. The LA mayor will hand out free guns to blacks because it is only "fair" that everyone is armed.

"Black LA residents lack access to guns as wealthy rush to buy firearms amid crime wave" Aren't black thugs with guns committing the crimes?

That's a good idea #2. If they follow the pattern they could stop black crime by the criminals taking out each other.

I guess all those guns meant for L.A. are going to Chicago and Baltimore because blacks in those cities don't seem to have a problem getting a gun and ammo.

Clearly not true. As #3 points out, the ROOT CAUSE of the crime is crimes committed with guns, and history has shown that from 65% to 85% of these crimes are done by black people. So, they have PLENTY of access to guns, clearly.

Gun control my butt. Meet me at McDonalds at 8 AM and give me 800 bucks. I'll hit the bars for a few hours. At 6PM I'll meet you at McDonald's again and give you your gun. I'll also keep at least $400 that I didn't spend on the gun.

To be honest, this gun store has been allowed to exist for two reasons. One is it is for the rich who will make appointments to come in and purchase their guns, and two, the rich have never really wanted to buy guns in the past. That is now changing, and I am sure the store will be shut down as soon as enough wealthy folks have their weapons.

-There are many gun stores in LA and in surrounding cities, probably hundreds. There is however only one in Beverly Hills which is a postage stamp compared to the LA area. - Guns are not racists but gun control laws are racist. - In general the guns being used in crimes are not legally owned, probably stolen. - The people (White, Black, Hispanic, Asian etc) doing the crimes are a tiny percentage of the population still everyone including Blacks should be able to protect themselves but it not legally possible due to CA gun laws.

In my old city during the fifties and sixties, the only people who had hand guns were retired policemen for obvious reasons. When the floodgates were opened to Jamaican criminals (thanks Trudeau and Manly) suddenly crimes were committed with guns. We had never before seen anything like it. If I was still living there I would carry.

The biggest goal of democrat gun control is and always was to keep guns out of the hands of blacks, regardless of criminal history. Maybe I'll take a few dozen of my old beaters to CA and beef up my retirement accounts. Free men own guns. Slaves cant.

It is actually reversed. Illegal guns are relatively easy to buy in the hood. If you figure out how to deal with a criminal so you don't end up with no money, no gun and maybe no life. The smug liberals who are now trying to arm up can learn first hand all about the reams of gun control laws they thought were so cool. Wanting a handgun in CA and actually owning a handgun are too very different things. Carrying that handgun outside their house is another level of forms and qualifications. It is reality meets sanctimonious blather.

Recently, Ted Cruz made an appearance on talk show, “The View”, to discuss the economy and the values of the Republican Party. “The View” has been known for their left-of-center takes over the past few years, advocating for liberal ideas while critiquing conservatives and their values. So, it was interesting to see them bring on Ted Cruz to hear his thoughts. The best part of the interview was when tension culminated over discussing January 6th, only for Sen. Cruz to unapologetically call out the left’s hypocrisy.

Then he married Kim Karshashian and I was so vehemently opposed to propping that worthless family up that I started spending even less attention on him, if that was possible. Suddenly, though, as Donald Trump became president and attracted all kinds of people to his camp (“What do you have to lose” – remember?) it was becoming harder to ignore certain folks. Kanye was one of them.

During a Thursday appearance on David Axelrod's Axe Files podcast, Obama accused the GOP of fueling "anger" and "resentment" from its supporters, claiming the party is struggling because they have embraced an "elitist economic agenda." "We've developed, what we've seen is a Republican Party that has embraced a cultural populism, the kind of populism that we talked about earlier: resentment, anger, you know, exploiting people's sense that things are rigged," Obama said.

In case you had any lingering doubts that forcibly shutting down the entire economy over a virus and replacing economic activity with government payments does not represent a smart strategy, the Associated Press has more evidence to bolster the case. Its latest investigation, titled “The Great Grift,” highlighted the staggering scope of fraud taxpayers face because of Covid-era programs. On the heels of earlier AP investigations that showed significant spending on projects that had little to do with the coronavirus, the story provides one major explanation — albeit an infuriating one — for our nearly $32 trillion-and-counting federal debt.
