It seems a bit ironic that we're being lectured on celebrating someone's death by an avowed member of a death cult.

Society's abandonment of inner-city poor and its refusal to fix the conditions that create those gang-bangers is a much bigger failure of society -- I mean, the numbers are much bigger and they're being gunned down in the streets too. It seems to me that your sense of empathy is tied to the economic class of the victim.

The delicious thing being that in america that money already does come from somewhere, and we pay more for less.
@ Inner City Gangs
Gang related homicides vacillate between 10-15% of gun deaths for a given year. Many many many more people die outside of the inner cities by guns than in them. Rural suicides and domestic violence account for the lions share of gun death in the us. Why, it's almost as if pretending the scary brown criminals are killing everyone is killing The Whites. Gang bangers certainly don't account for as many deaths as health insurance robber barons. That shit isn't even close.
More reich wing wokester bullshit. Whistling about ethnicity as murderousness despite all evidence to the contrary as they die gun deaths of despair by their own hand or their spouses- if health inc doesn't get them first. But sure, let's pour one out for the guys in the c suite who pushed granny off a cliff. A handy example of how our miseducation at the hands of yall qaeda leads to abject moral failure on every aspect of an issue.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Not all gun violence is created equal; Ah another straw man, where do you imagine I suggested it was? More importantly what has this to do with the point I made? Valuing private gun ownership, when the result is inevitable is a moral choice, yes? You seem to have dodged this question, yet keep incongruously talking about "valuing human life".
Quote:two gang bangers killing each other? Okay, whatever -
So much for the "value" you attach to human life a s a Christians.
Quote:they put on uniforms and they went out and fought, people die. Just keep that shit in the slums.
Where your unevidenced and bigoted rhetoric has decided life is of less value, yes I see. What is not clear is what this latest bigotry has to do with my post, again you seem to have forgone debate for preaching hate speech.
Quote:A civilian being gunned down in the middle of the street? Cheering that on is a failure as a society.
Like Nazis crying over a fallen comrade, while they relentlessly slaughter those humans they deem of less value. I'm not a theists or a Christian of course, just a poor atheistic heathen, but I am afraid I can't divide human lives into those of more and those of less value as easily and happily as you seem able.
At least your comment on atheists not understanding the "value" Christians place on human life, is underscored here, very edifying, I think in your case at least my understanding has expanded. As always I try to be polite, but am finding it increasingly difficult not to call you for the immoral racist hate speech you are posting.
Your inability to address any point I made, is again duly noted anyway.

While he shrugs his shoulders at gun deaths, where he deems those lives of less value. Then watch and marvel as he gets all bent out of shape at the idea someone should be allowed to end their own lives with dignity when their suffering has become unbearable, and there is no further hope of any quality of life, and all so big companies can sell more guns. Big pharmaceutical companies on the other hand, peddling their vaccines just for profit...irony abounds it seems...
Then there are women of course, making choices to scrape off microscopic clumps of cells from the lining of their uterus, blinded as they are to the "value" of "human" life. How did he put it now:
Quote: people die. Just keep that shit in the slums.
It's impressive to see this Christian, demonstrate the "value" he places on human life alright, I shan't easily forget such a demonstration.

Yes it is.

Still gun violence and innocent people get killed in the crossfire and people in the slums are no less valuable anywhere else.
Quote:A civilian being gunned down in the middle of the street? Cheering that on is a failure as a society.
A Greedy corporate CEO's who has probably killed more people and done more harm to society then all the gang bangers combined. Gets karma for his actions and people don't give a lick sympathy for him that's a credit to society
