[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Too bad the victim wasn't armed. Two or three of those kids getting dropped by their intended victim might change some minds about whether doing stuff like this is a good idea. [/quote]

Yes, if only all potential victims would just arm themselves, this world would be a much safer place.

NP.  No need to be dramatic.  But PP is right - one of these days, these punks are going to go after the wrong person.  It would actually be refreshing if that happened because that might be the most effective deterrent. [/quote]

Kids get involved in violence because they have no hope. Shooting a few of them is not going to deter jack shit. You need to show compassion. Violence begets more violence.[/quote]

If they understood there was a possibility that the next random person they attacked might shoot one of them, you’d definitely see less stuff like this. But they know there is almost zero chance of that, so they’re not deterred.

As proof of this, look at who they choose to attack: a random older white dude. Why? Because they know he won’t shoot them. He’s not a threat to them. Who DON’T they attack? Black men in their late teens or 20’s. Why? Because those are the people in DC who are most likely to be carrying a gun, albeit illegally. Because they know if they pulled this stunt on one of those guys, they’d get shot. Period.

These punks aren’t stupid. [/quote]
