Quote from Ricter:
Just another day in Chicago? The latest, recent, and typical.
Quote from Brass:
However good a guy you may be in real life, Ricter has an uncanny ability to connect dots on the Internet. You reap what you sow.
I'd say that if this were the only such instance then you would have plausible deniability.Quote from Maverick74:
I LIVE in Chicago Ricter. I don't go out of my way to post things that are happening in LA or Miami. I post things happening here in Chicago because I live here and they usually are making NATIONAL news!. And Ricter, let me help you out here, since it looks like you need it, here in Chicago they are actually debating bringing in the national guard to deploy on the south side of the city and declare a state of emergency. Yes, it's that bad. Yes, this is big news and yes, it's relevant.
What part of that do you not understand?
Quote from Ricter:
Not to mention the passion with which he supports those threads which again and again pick certain crimes and only certain crimes to "report" here. With pictures of faces of course--wouldn't want anyone to be confused about what the "real" problem is.
Quote from CaptainObvious:
I think some people don't want to meet in person because it would then be difficult to drop bombs on someone you have broken bread with. We should not forget that face to face interaction is what saves us from killing each other via the push of a button.
Quote from Ricter:
As I said, that example was only the latest. So if I keep digging I'll find that you post or support reports of "certain" types of crime only if they occur in Chicago?
If you're going to be mathematical, do it right. It's 20-30 posts out of 4k in the basement, since those posts obviously can't go upstairs.Quote from Maverick74:
Ricter, let me help you out with some basic math here. I have close to 15k posts in 10 years. Probably 4k of them are down here in the basement. Out of those 15,000 posts, I have posted maybe 20 to 30 articles or links regarding Chicago violence, which is a huge problem. So 20 posts out of 15,000!!!!!! And you see a f*cking pattern? Let me ask you something Ricter, do you see a unicorn in your closet? What about green men in your backyard?
