Granite Post is an astroturf site, part of the Courier Newsroom network. The story is likely real, but we’re going to need a better source.
I wonder when they’re just going to start using the old racist words again, openly.
Of course he’s from Weare. Nothing but sister-fuckers and meth labs in that part of the state.
He describes his political orientation as anarcho-capitalist.
From his Wikipedia page. So in other words he’s an accelerationist hoping for https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_Enlightenment and stirring the pot because they want civil war and the collapse of the government
Really? I mostly associate violence with white supremacists and police gangs. White and blue might be a better outfit since it also represents other violent nations
Monster.
His name is Travis Corcoran. Attach names to people’s actions so they can’t “un-associate” from them.
Let’s figure out what color is associated with mental health and wear that instead, because over half of all gun deaths each year in the USA are suicides, and no amount of permitting or restriction of magazine sizes or even a successful total ban and eradication of all firearms will change the fact that all those people wanted to die.
Meanwhile neither the Republicans nor my fellow Democrats appear to give the first or smallest fuck, preferring to harp on either disarming honest citizens in the face of fascism or railing against the same whole being fascist.
Shout out to the homie I lost to suicide by gun while we were both serving our country, in the 1990s.
Jeez whatsoever could be the mystical cause of African American savagery? Could it be white people projecting their violence onto black people and pointing in horror?
With a bonus “I’m on the spectrum” so I can say whatever I want.
“All of the data that I read indicates that violence isn’t associated with the presence of guns, but with the presence of African Americans,” Corcoran wrote. “Blacks commit violent crimes at 5-10x the rate of whites… I will wear a black T-shirt on Friday, June 6, to help make people aware of the fact that crime is predominantly caused by African Americans, and not by guns.”.
This dude is clearly bottom of the barrel intelligence and quality of person. Contextually, his response was specifically to a gun safety organization, and being the dumbass he is, moves the goal posts immediately to violence, not gun violence, which is the topic. Further, 100% of gun violence is associated with the presence of guns, regardless of the race of the wielder.
Fuck this racist cunt.
Crime is predominantly caused by the rich, who steal money from the poor, thus making it harder for them to survive without crime. It’s admitting African Americans are disproportionally shoved into or born into poverty.
For sure. He and other white supremacists aren’t known for there intellect, especially when it involves correlation between topics. Cause/effect, if/then, actions/consequences, is all too much for them to process. One thing at a time.
You know what he’s right. But it’s not because they are black, it’s because blacks are disproportionately poor. So maybe we should fix poverty.
In addition to income/wealth disparities, black communities are disproportionally policed. Black people are disproportionally arrested, charged, and convicted. Their sentences are disproportionally harsher.
It’s systemic racism through and through. The evidence is plain, but racists (like the subject of the OP) see the numbers as confirming their bias and ignore any other possible explanation.
He’s probably in favor of “fixing” the poors too.
Is it really shocking that a Republican is racist?
It still kind of shocking when they say insane shit like this. I know it’s a low bar, but “crime is caused by n*****” is still shocking to hear yes.
So wild to me that I interpreted it as an allyship at first. “Oh that’s nice i guess, he’s wearing black because so many black people are shot by the police or something…”. And then I read further and realised how wrong I was.
Vice signalling - all the rage under president Felon.
