Meanwhile at the "Pittsburgh Obama International Studies Academy in East Liberty"

Hundreds of parents and children found themselves running and ducking for cover Saturday morning as gunshots rang from the metal bleachers overlooking the field
-- the third shooting at a Pittsburgh youth football game in the last five years. A statement released by Pittsburgh police said a 27-year-old man from Wilkinsburg was shot in the chest, a 64-year-old woman from Verona was shot in the stomach and shoulder and a 33-year-old woman was shot in the hand. -- Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

Note to self: Avoid graduation celebrations at the "Pittsburgh Obama International Studies Academy."

Your Say

No doubt the Aryan white racists of the KKK were responsible.

When the neighborhoods go up in flames, it won't be ours. It'll be their own.

Come on, take your multi-culti shooting like a man. It's just a little hole, it won't bleed forever,

"This is ridiculous," said Tamisha Fuller, 40, of Homestead, whose 2-year-old granddaughter was at the game during the shooting. "If the police would've been there, doing their job, this never would have happened."


Wait, blame the police? Why do you need security at a midget football game in the first place? Because it's two black teams playing with blacks in the stands. How about you teach your kids when they still can learn not to get involved with gangs and shoot people? How about teaching them to obey the law? How about teaching them to friggin' grow up and act like adults instead of being perpetual babies their entire lives?

Oh yeah, because that would mean you'd have to act like an adult too.

...Tamisha Fuller, 40, of Homestead, whose 2-year-old granddaughter...

Does anyone else see what's wrong with this picture?

waltj: I'll take a stab -- she doesn't know how to spell her own first name?

The defenestrated John Derbyshire is gloating.

Well, he would be, were he not the least emotional man I have ever read.

Anon, she may not, but made-up, faux-African names, while dumb, are not the real problem. That is a 40-year-old grandmother with a two-year old granddaughter. Do the math and it's easy to reach some unpleasant conclusions. And any takers for bets on whether there's a husband in the picture for either grandmother or mother?

And when she is 55 she'll be a great grandmother. She'll be a great-great grandmother when she is in her 70's.

However, it is racist for me to even bring this up, and I hereby denounce myself.

It is a good deal less irrational for people to have kids at 18 than at 40. The 40's are so irrational that they are paying for both.

Anyway, Tamisha knows what she is talking about. Any large gathering of black people needs a police presence. Who are you to argue?

The only "rational" time for a female to have children is when her high school (and if she goes to college, her college) education is complete; she is married to the intended Father of her child; and at least one of them is gainfully employed so that they can together, support a family.

That family, and if they live in a neighborhood containing other like-minded families who approached child producing in a similar way, will, amazingly, have no need for a police presence at youth sporting events.

Funny how that works. Must be a coincidence, because we know that those kind of old-fashioned "values" are obsolete and passe.

The more "enlightened" and progressive way to look at it would be to conclude that larger welfare checks, bigger raises for the existing school teachers, free school breakfasts, free post-school day care, and free school dinners (in addition to the free lunches), bigger and even better free recreational facilities and whatever else can be subsidized such as cable tv or the Dish...and of course......a police presence at all large gatherings - is the way to go.

The mother of the 2 year old is probably 15. She is know as the "breadwinner." Girl gets pregnant on purpose, grandma applies as the foster mother because the 15 year old "cannot care for the infant" and then the checks start rolling in. Welfare, WIC, SNAP throw in an Obamaphone, you get the picture.
