...and every person I follow on Twitter is talking about Kanye West
Kanye is still insane, but I'm loving watching the media lose their effing minds over a black celebrity telling other blacks they can move off the Democrat plantation.

I feel dirty and a bit hypocritical actually enjoying anything from Kayne. He's exposing the left's racism for sure, it's overdue.

Chicago is a craphole when it comes to murders, but from 2004 to about 2015, the homicide rate was low....for Chicago.
It spiked in 2016 and came down some in 2017.

1. You know Chicago has one of the worst murder rates in the country, right? Even the "good" numbers (thanks George Bush!) are terrible.
2. Chicago is a shirt hole for far more reasons than just their terrible murder rate.

Maybe for the homicide rate per 100,000 in Chicago to be closer to the national average of 5.5? Based on your own graphic, Kanye is right, nothing changed.

You might even say it got objectively worse compared to where it was when he came into office. Oh, and we won't even get into Rahm's manipulation of crime stats...

White knighting for Barry. You're such a dope. This has nothing to do with Obama.
It's amazing how poor your reading comprehension has gotten.
You ask this question, "You know Chicago has one of the worst murder rates in the country, right? Even the "good" numbers (thanks George Bush!) are terrible.", right after I said, "Chicago is a craphole when it comes to murders, but from 2004 to about 2015, the homicide rate was low....for Chicago." Maybe next time stop responding to me by repeating what I said in question form.
And also don't put quotes around things I didn't say, like "record low". It's funny watching certain people stand up for Kanye. Trump certainly creates strange bedfellows.

That's a nice thought, but is it realistic? There are certain parts of Chicago that are just nuts. Kanye is right, nothing has changed. My question why is he upset? He sounds like the ppl that have been screaming "Chicago is falling apart", as if things in Chicago have been getting worse for the last decade. Kudos to anyone that can get Chicago to have less murders, but I don't think anyone has an answer.

1. I'm sorry princess - you said "historical [record] low". If you can attempt to explain the difference between that and record low, I'll apologize. (spoiler: he won't)
2. Explaining your shitty non sequitur argument again doesn't make it any less stupid.
3. I'm not defending Kanye West, I'm attacking your stupid argument.
Again - the homicide rate in Chicago didn't get better over the course of Obama's term, it got worse. Rates weren't at historical [record] lows, and Chicago has objectively terrible homicide rates compared to the rest of the country. But - the best part - his stupid tweet didn't even mention homicides. You could have picked any other irrelevant stat (graduation rates?) to try and white knight for Obama, but you picked the one that makes the worst argument.
In sum total, I'm assigning your argument 5 out of 5 full retards. Collect your trophy from Diggety.

A record low would be the lowest ever. Historical simply means in reference to the past. Now, if I had used historic, you may have a good argument, as historic refers to something that is significant. Sorry to ruin your spoiler alert. Just continues your historic streak of being wrong.
Sure, Kanye didn't mention a stat. If you think he was talking about something other than the one stat that has been thrown out there over and over again for years, have at it. I'll go with homicide.
Finally, the best part about this really, is that of all the things that rappers say all the time, what Kanye said is a 2 on a scale of 1 to 100. If they want to have a real discussion, talk about the general tone of rap.
Re: Up is down, left is right, cats & dogs living together..
Lol, that's bull crap and you know it. You're either an idiot with no grasp of the human language, or you're trying to weasel out of your deceptive language. I'm not really sure which is the case, but am leaning towards the former after you said you could read Kanye's mind to know he was talking about murder rates when he never mentioned that at all - and I have no idea what your last comment is supposed to mean.

You could have picked any other irrelevant stat (graduation rates?) to try and white knight for Obama, but you picked the one that makes the worst argument.
In sum total, I'm assigning your argument 5 out of 5 full retards. Collect your trophy from Diggety.[/quote]
A record low would be the lowest ever. Historical simply means in reference to the past. Now, if I had used historic, you may have a good argument, as historic refers to something that is significant. Sorry to ruin your spoiler alert. Just continues your historic streak of being wrong.
Sure, Kanye didn't mention a stat. If you think he was talking about something other than the one stat that has been thrown out there over and over again for years, have at it. I'll go with homicide.
Finally, the best part about this really, is that of all the things that rappers say all the time, what Kanye said is a 2 on a scale of 1 to 100. If they want to have a real discussion, talk about the general tone of rap.[/quote]LOL, golden shovel worthy BS right there!
Unvaccinated,. mask free, and still alive.

I didn't say I read Kanye's mind. I said that the overwhelming Chicago talking point is about murders, so I'm guessing that he is talking about murders. If you don't want to utilize critical thinking, have at it, just make sure you are consistent in taking things literally, and not adding any additional meaning or judgment to what someone says.
On the last comment, it's about people being upset at Kanye taking Trump's side, and that he's setting a bad example by siding with Trump and not talking about what a bad example Trump is. And many of those people being mad at Kanye say nothing about the rap culture that glorifies a lot of what is happening in Chicago - guns, drugs, banging as many women as possible, etc. If people actually had a real conversation about the issues, which is probably what Kanye is trying to get to, they'd be talking about those things.
Re: Up is down, left is right, cats & dogs living together..
No, dumbarse, there is no different context of time between historic and historical, only the notoriety of the event itself. For example, HokieFanDC defending conservative principles would be a historic event, whereas there are infinite examples of you defending liberal policy in the historical record. Maybe you should pick up a dictionary. I'm going to make an exception and award you a rare 6 out 5 possible total retards for this thread.HokieFanDC wrote:Or, you could just pick up a dictionary.........USN_Hokie wrote:Lol, that's bull crap and you know it.

Re: Up is down, left is right, cats & dogs living together..
LOL, dumbarse, no one was talking about time. A comparison of the words "record" and "historical" is about the significance of the event, not when it happened. A record is significant (historic) because it's the highest or lowest of it's kind. Something that is historically low (or high), is lower (or higher) than what has been the norm, not THE lowest or highest.USN_Hokie wrote:No, dumbarse, there is no different context of time between historic and historical, only the notoriety of the event itself.

As for your last part, your FOS. What liberal policies do you think I've supported? I doubt that you could name 3.
Spoiler alert: You can't answer that question.
