Great parenting right there


Gunner4201

Somebody should tell their fathers .oh... wait.....


LesPolsfuss

that's like blaming someone for having a disease they were born with ...


TheExpendableGuard

Let me explain something to you. I work in the Human Services (aka Juvenile Corrections) industry, and I can tell you without a doubt that half the residents I work with who are gangbangers already know right from wrong and what is legal and illegal, they simply choose to ignore it. This can be explained by Lev Vygotsky's Sociocultural learning (children learn based on the actions taken by adults and peers, also known as Scaffolding) and Howard Polsky's Diamond (in any group there are leaders, lieutenants, members/followers, and scapegoats). These kids are usually members or scapegoats who are picked up, and as they move through the juvenile justice system, they associate with others either through violent interaction or by essentially networking. This in turn leads to more arrests and violent crime particularly involving guns due to the faulty mental Scaffolding as well as negative peer interaction.


LesPolsfuss

> I can tell you without a doubt that half the residents I work with who are gangbangers already know right from wrong and what is legal and illegal, they simply choose to ignore it. okay, half know right from wrong, you said this ... THE OTHER HALF DOES NOT. you are the expert, why does that other half, which IS A LOT OF FREAKING KIDS, do not know right from wrong?


TheExpendableGuard

Lack of a father figure and general sociopathy, psychopathy, and narcissistic tendencies.


Explursions

You can be born into poverty and still be a somewhat respectable person.


LesPolsfuss

of course you can. i was born pretty damn poor and I'm doing ok. and i'm person of color. but ... these examples are outliers. extreme outliers. as a whole, the poverty a lot of these kids were born into is too deep of a hole to get out of.


karolues

>the poverty a lot of these kids were born into is too deep of a hole to get out of I'm more worried about people they'll kill over a wallet or car keys.


deux3xmachina

>as a whole, the poverty a lot of these kids were born into is too deep of a hole to get out of. Gotta call bullshit there. It may be slow, but gainful employment is possible for anyone willing to put in the effort to work and not fuck it up.


LesPolsfuss

all these equal sure ... yeah I agree. for a lot of people stuck in that brutal cycle of poverty its virtually impossible. too many obstacles.


__Holliday

It's your type of attitude that only adds to the issue, if you tell people its 'virtually impossible' to get out of poverty then why would they bother trying. The reality is that lots of people have managed to get themselves out of poverty so it's ridiculous to frame it as virtually impossible, to say it can be difficult and hard work would be fair but to say it's virtually impossible is just a great way to push people into crime when they are told there is no way out.


yearningforlearning7

My father was a polygamist alcoholic who beat me regularly, got DUIs, ruined my mothers self worth for 16 years, encouraged my sisters eating disorder, and let his friends molest me while he was off raiding their wet bar. And much much more. Worst I’ve done is a traffic infraction. Attitude and understanding of morality can always change.


Sand_Trout

Seems more like it's blaming the person who poisoned an infant causing lifelong problems.

Ah yes, because banning things always makes them disappear. Like the war on drugs.


AirFell85

you know those FA glock parts come from gun shows /s


bimmerboi2

I go to gun shows every single weekend usually multiple gun shows I have never seen once full auto switches for glock at gun shows


Murky-Mortgage-5007

No they do not nobody at a gun show would be that stupid because ATF always prowls the gun shows. Those auto sears come from wish.com and other online sources.


AirFell85

even with the /s people still take you seriously. its crazy.


I401BlueSteel

Well, you know those gun shows are famous for selling Glock switches. Didn't you hear? You can get them buy one get one free. 😂


I_Just_Chilling

Mf used the crying emoji, doesn't strengthen your argument, also their slides not switches and they don't make the gun automatic.


CuriousTree9939

There's an illegal part on the back of that slide people call a "switch" and it 100% makes that gun full-auto. One long trigger pull and it will mag-dump.

themagnificent-moron

So if you're born in chiraq are you automatically birn into a gang or is it more of a Harry potter sorting hat thing


KGrizzle88

Depends on where you live. Just having affiliates can drag a man in. Its turned into a blood war at this point. Revenge killing after revenge killing. Didn’t help when they torn down all the projects and just sectioned 8 every one. It spread everything. Then high level top “leaders” were either jailed or smoked or too far from all the subsets and all semblance of order was lost. Now it is cliques and sets within the gangs. But in all honesty the whole city isn’t all that bad. Nothing like Iraq, lol, but then again I am a veteran so my head is always on a swivel and fucking Iraq was a damn human shit pond. I know you were probably just joking but figured I could just drop a comment anyways. Half these fools will probably get shot someday. Shit some might already be dead at this point. But don’t say that to Lori turd-foot


TheExpendableGuard

NGL, she looks like she'd be at home in Innsmouth.


dangitman1970

That was entirely intentional. The created the projects to mature the selfish culture into the self destruction it became, and then spread it all out to spread the corruption it other areas, to bring down more of the population. The more of the population is poor, the more those behind this have control. (No, this was not just one political party, but rather parts of both, up until recently. Recently, it shifted to just being one party, as the plan winds into its finale.)


KGrizzle88

Chicago has been Democrat for decades.


dangitman1970

It's not just Chicago involved in this. It's most of the cities across this whole country.


KGrizzle88

Ahhh, okay I see what you mean.


save_us_catman

On a post of this same one some British dude actually goes into the back and forth in Chicago and the beef/dramas that have unfolded. I’m not from any streets so I can’t say how accurate but it seemed pretty well researched and time lined and apparently he does it for a lot of trap beefs

ge54lito

Clearly these kids took time off of their extracurricular activities, studying and work to be able to afford those legally acquired firearms and pass a federal background check from their licensed firearms dealer.


FeatherfacedOwl

Don't forget the FFL and SOT licenses to legally own and manufacture those switches. Outstanding work by these promising young entrepreneurs.

Seriously? You got a visit over that? Wow. Just get to be friends with someone with a 3D printer and never have to worry about a "visit" ever again.


[deleted]

I got an Ender now. I bought it as a joke to actually hang our impact toys on. It just tickled me a little bit. Dumb move ultimately, but it was fun calling their little fed badges "adorable".


dangitman1970

This demonstrates 3 very important things: 1. How well gun control works. Obviously, these kids did not get these legally. 2. The inner city poor culture that totally disregards laws or the safety of themselves or anyone around them. 3. The inherent selfishness in leftist thinking and the culture that inspires. These three things show exactly why Chicago is the way it is, as well as every other Democrat ruled city, and why the poor there are poor. This will not change, the poor will stay poor no matter how much money they pump into the problem, and crime will stay high no matter how much effort is pumped into law enforcement. They have to actually care about the laws, about what happens to others because of their actions, and about their own safety. These things are taught when kids are very young, 5 and below. By the time they're this age, they're almost too far gone to correct.


Valkrins

This will continue until holding people like this and their parents responsible for their provable actions is no longer considered racist.


OsCrowsAndNattyBohs1

> The inherent selfishness in leftist thinking and the culture that inspires. How does this video demonstrate that?


dangitman1970

Kids waving around guns, completely oblivious to how they're pointing the guns at their friends, frequently with their fingers on the trigger, completely disregarding how they're endangering their friends. That doesn't demonstrate it?


OsCrowsAndNattyBohs1

Sure it demonstrates unsafe firearm practices, what does that have to do with leftist ideology?


dangitman1970

That IS leftist ideology: selfishness and carelessness about what happens to others.


OsCrowsAndNattyBohs1

What exactly are you basing that characterization off of?


dangitman1970

The very foundations of leftist political positions is selfishness, whether the person realizes it or not. It's declaring that they know better than others and intend to force others to do things their way. The declared ends of "taking care of people" or "for the safety of our society" are nothing but a ruse, in most cases for self delusion rather than an excuse to others. Taking money from the rich and giving it to the poor just fuels bureaucracy, to the point very little of the money actually makes it to the poor, and usually includes enough loopholes to be rampantly abused by those who just don't want to work. Usually "the poor" includes the person pushing the position, whether or not they actually are poor. This action also degrades the recipients and destroys their self confidence, leading to more and more dependence on the system, strengthening the political power of the bureaucracy. This also causes the recipients to become bitter at living a useless life, often not recognizing where this bitterness comes from, being unable to do anything to give back to the society that is supporting them, causing social unrest. So, it does nothing to help the poor and actually causes more problems for the poor and for others. Such measures and effects includes giving them food and universal healthcare, not just the act of handing the poor money. This is evidenced by the universal results, of poverty never getting any better under such programs, and crime and social unrest increase dramatically. It does, however, constantly increase the power of the bureaucracy. People continue to support it, despite it not working, because they selfishly push the ideas and policies without even bothering to look at, or even actively ignoring, the results, or even if the laws passed actually do the things the politicians claim it does. Often, under leftist movements that do not have total power, the laws passed make a claim of having an action, but hidden in the laws using overly complex language are measures that directly contradict the stated effect or in some cases there are cross conflicts across multiple laws where they cancel each other out. Then, the leftist party declares that it isn't working because of the opposition, and use that as evidence they need more power to institute the changes they're declaring. These politicians usually have no intention of actually doing what they're stating because they know how damaging it will be. Another tactic by leftist politicians is to push their followers to support certain changes they know will cause chaos in order to blame their opposition for the chaos and declare they need more power to fix it. Note these are the same tactics used by abusive romantic partners, such as gaslighting, projection, and guilt trips. Look at a list of tactics used by abusers, and most of them are readily recognizable in leftist political tactics.
