[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I favor a repeal of the 2nd amendment. But this country has proven that even the wholesale slaughter of 6 year olds won’t move conservatives. So....[/quote]

And suicides and black on black violence don't "move" anyone.[/quote]

Really?  So sick of this argument.  I live in Baltimore City and let me tell you something I fully expect every news headline that I see at night to be a black on black crime when it comes to handguns.  Why do I expect this?  Because this is what the black community in certain parts of Baltimore (the parts always on the evening news) do, every single day ... and it is ALWAYS black on black.  It's not that it doesn't move me, it's just that I can now expect it because it has become the norm.  To argue this is not the case and that people do not become insensitive to situations based one exposure would be small minded on your part.  I do not see whites or any other poc shooting each other on a daily or even monthly basis.  The norm becomes expected in life.  Deal with it and stop dismissing the reason why people like me have begun to role their eyes, just stop.[/quote]

Good for the local Baltimore news outlets.  I'm glad they do their job.[/quote]
