I see a 4.96 France is at 1.20, Spain at 0.62, Germany 0.95, United Kingdom 1.20. So you know. That puts the US about 5 times more deadly. Not to mention the resent events of rather violent protests from left and right wingers. Open racist behavior. You don't see "the Jew will not replace us" marches in Europe. You really do not.
We don't see it all that much here either and when it was popular in Europe it set the world on fire. I think we manage to keep a lid on our baser instincts here. I'm not overly concerned with our Covid deaths compared to Europe either, not individual countries, Europe. When people use US numbers they include all 51 States as opposed to ....... France? We're fine.
It's done in the open by speakers at Trump rallies. See link. The guy pumps out 4 names, and "suddenly" stumbles on Kamala, you can hear some people in the crowd respond. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/20...-mock-kamala-harris-name-trump-rally-n1243810 Same thing happened with Obama. I don't recall this happening to Tramp or Baden, GW Bash or Clunton, do you? It's a thing. Something up with calling a spade a spade?
I was serving in Asia in the Army in 1968 so I missed it. There are plenty of riots in our history. No doubt about that.
It may be 5 times or not. I don't know. But the chances of being killed by a criminal in the US are infinitesimal just as they are in the EU. What is not true is that it is characteristic of the U.S. It is not. Period I don't know what they say about what. But using the term everywhere is hyperbole just like the other comments you made. You like to pick specific things that happened in the U.S. and try to make them universal. It is hyperbole. Get ahold of yourself.. The shooter will be arraigned and tried in a court regardless of what some cop might say. That is how we handle crimes in the U.S. Religion has nothing to do with it. All criminals face our judicial system.
I just sourced and shown the amounts of being killed is far greater. And sure, the chances of being killed in general remains small. That kind of overlooks that guns are frequently used in the US in general, since they are just everywhere to be bought. A hint of how bad it is, is that the US is the world number 1 in locking up people, by a massive margin. https://www.apa.org/monitor/2016/12/cover-policing No such thing as a hyperbole. Just people refusing to see the country being not as good as they hoped it would be. I am not even trying to make anything in the US to make universal. Where the hell is this coming from? But yeah... I make something like Kamala's name a specific thing, that even she as a vice president can not escape racist mockery. That should give you a hint of how it goes down the social economic steps about people who never get to be in the spotlight. People with non white sounding names simply gets shunned a lot on the job market etc. It's a statistical fact. Well first of all that cop is unwilling to understand the shooter really did not kill all them Asians because "he had a bad day", and it's not just some coincidence he aimed at all them Asians either. It's obvious a racist theme behind it. And so that cop is actually unfit to preform his duty to protect the public adequately. In fact, the cop is accused to be racist against Asians himself. https://globalnews.ca/news/7704008/atlanta-spa-shootings-bad-day-racism/ Secondly the shooter will be found guilty or not guilty by a group of people resembling your average joe the plumber, total armature without a clue getting played like a fiddle by high end lawyers. A person thinking like that cop could be sitting among them. And it only takes 1 to totally alter the entire outcome of the legal process.
sure... I start to found my opinion with sources... and you're just ranting a personal attack of "Anti-American(ism)".... and you run away from the discussion. Go cry me a river that I poked through your alternative reality. lol
For sure Blue has gone way far to the extreme - fanatical in nature - decisions driven by Politics rather than Science and Reason. Blue used to be anti war - now they are solid Neocon Blue used to be Pro ACLU -- now Blue hates the ACLU - and tramples on civil liberties at every turn Blue hates the principles of Classical Liberalism - has gone to the other extreme and last but not least - Blue is now the Anti Environment party - rejecting science - agenda based on the political bandwagon.
