A lot of people shy away from talking about ‘inner city violence’. Its easy & convenient to blame it all on guns. Reality is we have a huge segment of our population that grows up fatherless, uneducated, & with out a real future. They are not taught the value of human life…
..and are allowed to act out any behavior no matter how violent or lawless because its the CULTURAL NORM for that segment of our population. The REALITY is, if you dont start teaching your kids they deserve better & to want better & than human life is precious and..
..that getting an education & hard work is the way out of poverty, you doom them to violence, poverty, broken families, addiction, & death.

This segment of our population needs to look at itself honestly & change. And the rest of our population MUST hold it accountable.
I dont give a single rusty, dusty fvck who thinks this is racist. Because everything i just said is the bitter, ugly, unvarnished, unsugarcoated truth: and you cant fix a problem until you admit it exists, admit what it is and truly FACE it & deal with it.
This is the elephant in the room. Its way past time we have the talk.

So you want military troops to come sort out your lawless streets? These are your kids. Your brothers. Your sisters. Your neighbors. You’re telling me its the responsibility of armed troops to fix their violence, with more violence or threat of violence??
I think you need to re-think this. What happens when the violent kids, neighbors or family members of yours or people close to you fire on those troops? The answer is for families & neighborhoods to own the mess theyve created & start working w/ Law Enforcement instead of..
…against it. The papers & news are over flowing with ‘jr dindu nuffin & popos just shot him’ stories & few to none community watch anti gang success stories.

This is exactly what I thought when Liz Harris made her statement about how honest reporting on her ‘witness/speaker’ from the AZ Leg hearing had serious cred problems.

The fact is, @tracybeanz is right: @LizHarrisMBA should have vetted the speaker. Thats on her.
And moreover, if the witness went off script Liz or Wendy could & should have stopped her. That’s also on them. And those failures hurt all of Arizona. None of that is @UncoverDC or @tracybeanz fault & voicing frustration about honest reporting is a HUGE red flag.
The reality is, presenting that speaker without serious vetting & losing control of the hearing were colossal mistakes with major consequences. Own it.

@ryanhallyall @ReedTimmerAccu @BrandonCopicWx as i watched friday night in horror, & then learning a chaser was hit in Rolling Fork i couldnt help but wonder why you all arent using quality night vision passive tubes like refurb PVS-14s…
When parked you have a perfect opportunity to use quality night vision gear to keep yourself out of a tornado’s path & accurately see what is happening instead of relying on transformer explosions & lightning flashes.
While I understand the cost of these systems is high, taken in context w all the other gear you use its really not that high & could be a game changer. Food for thought. @TxStormChasers @livewxtv @LiveStormChaser @ChrisHallWx

Wow…..Russia’s stocks of T-80 & T-72 main battle tanks are now so depleted, they are modernizing old, mothballed T-62 tanks. This is a big deal.
These tanks have vastly inferior armor protection & underpowered, obsolete main guns & ammunition. Even with modern electronics, these tanks do not have a prayer of survival on the battlefield.
IF these tanks come up against modern Challenger II, older M1 Abrams, or older leopard tanks that NATO is donating to Ukraine, they are vastly outclassed. Another problem: if russia really has lost appx 1400 T-80 & T-72s, their best crews went with them.

fired @FBI agent, noted adulter & giant pussy @petestrzok attempting to throw shade at actual whistleblower @KyleSeraphin. Equally ironic that note Liar @petestrzok claims knowledge of @Jim_Jordan witness preferences given Jordan’s humiliation of Strzok.

Its also pretty telling that a former Senior @FBI official is too stupid or incompetent (maybe both) to know actual background of someone like @tracybeanz & @uncoverdc. Id like to say I’m shocked but given Strzok’s lies to congress, his wife, his employer, & FISA Court, Im not.
And i really have to tell you, its fucking hilarious & ironic hearing @peteszrzok of all people accuse @KyleSeraphin of being a leaker. Thats a monumental case of Projection right there. Give my regards to @joshscampbell & @AshaRangappa_ who you’ve been leaking to for 7 yrs, pete
