Open Letter To The Parkland Kids

From: Mitch Berg, irascible peasant
Re: Agenda item

7 dead in one Chicago neighborhood in 12 hours.

Of course, they were mostly black and brown, so they don’t look like any of you.  And they were mostly killed by people with criminal records (and, sadly, at least of the victims likely had records, too – that’s the way of inner city crime, which accounts for over 3/4 of this nation’s homicides (with and without guns) every year.   That means more people killed in two days that have died in all school shootings in the past five years, all rolled together.

But they’re black and brown and killed in ones and twos with weapons that aren’t on the social engineers’ hit lists yet.  And they had the bad fortune to be murdered  almost exclusively in cities run by the same political class that pays for your airfare and security and sign printing and also gets you all that A-list media treatment.  Cities that already have all the gun control measures “you” are so stridently demanding (fat lotta good they did, huh?) so nobody’ll be talking about those murders, will they?

Will they?

Will you all be marching through Chicago?  Calling a bunch of gang-bangers “terrorists” and “Murderers?”

No?

That is all.

  1. C’mon, Merg. You know that only middle aged white guys are capable of moral reasoning. That’s why black-on-black crime is their fault.

  2. Gun Control is and always has been a thinly veiled racist endeavor to deny guns to non-whites. The only difference between now and 1968 is the clear commitment to the the broader, more inclusive ideal of No Guns for All Non-Elites!

  3. Somehow I don’t think that “Boss” Hogg is going to be shouting obscenities at young african-americans in the hood, either. Well, unless his 4.1 GPA or whatever is far more inflated than even I’d guess, which is saying something….

    Gun ownership skews older & whiter. The market for AR-15’s is whiter & older than average.
    It would be more accurate to say that gun control efforts always target the group that is hated by the gun controllers.
