New Zealand mosque shooting

In public speaking it is used commonly as a grounding gesture, but in that picture he is clearly flashing his Satanic gang signs.

The board conservatives talking about everything from college students snapping their fingers to the cliintons and not calling out white supremacy.

We're too busy working our way up that dumb pyramid infographic posted earlier.

A 71-year-old man died during shootings at two mosques in New Zealand, which left at least 49 people dead, after he reportedly threw himself in front of other victims to shield them from gunfire.

Grandfather killed in New Zealand attack after throwing himself in front of other worshippers: report
Daoud Nabi's son, Omar Nabi, said that his father was often helping others and that he was not surprised to learn of his father's heroic efforts to save bystanders.

at least frost king has admitted to supporting white supremacy. the rest of y'all are taking this shooting personal and deflecting for some reason.

You should change your avatar to a real victim. That would be super virtuous.

have you read any of his manifesto or just spitting talking points as usual?

[hater]

This is real fellas


I got the news update as it was happening and logged in to ter and unfortunately saw d live stream entire thing

ing horrible as the kept shooting the dead bodies, doesn't make sense how he shot the dead bodies dead and dead again and again. He even left the mosque walked around the block and came back into shoot the dead bodies some more.why?

This is not a solo mission tbah

Something doesn't add up it was too professional and personal basically at the perfect location as NZ is part of the West but quiet enough to let shooters shoot up an entire city nonchalant. Kinda like a GTA 3 with 3 cop stars.. weird

I'm. Sick nigas

JICYMI:

And? Tragedies in 1st world countries tend to get the coverage. If the re ed tweeter is trying to use this as an example of biased reporting in mainstream media (and yes, mainstream media is biased, but biased toward stories that get them television ratings and clicks), he's wrong. There was endless media coverage of the Pulse Nightclub and San Bernardino shootings perpetrated by Muslims. And when the Charlie Hedbo attacks happened in France, no shortage of coverage there, with seemingly the entire world at the time having the French flag as their facebook avatar.

They voted themselves out. "Sanctuary State" I would cut off all federal spigots. These people are comfortable with burning the state down by not maintaining their parks. These people are moving to the Hill Country and driving up property taxes.

California is more economically and socially healthy than it's been in decades. See how overall crime rates has plunged since the mid-70s, peaking during the 80s and 90s:

California's GDP growth outpaces the national GDP growth:

"muuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh sanctuary cities."

This isn't simply done to spite Lord Trump. Since illegal immigration is, in fact, at historic lows, especially from Mexico, which is at a net negative, California's agricultural industry has experienced labor shortages. Companies have even offered increased wages and good benefits in an effort to attract native born Americans, and the turn out was poor. https://www.latimes.com/projects/la-...s-immigration/

But the raises and new perks have not tempted native-born Americans to leave their day jobs for the fields. Nine in 10 agriculture workers in California are still foreign born, and more than half are undo ented, according to a federal survey.

Ask spurraider21 or any other Californian here. The lower skilled jobs of fast food worker, busboy, maid, laborer, receptionist, etc will more than likely be filled by recent immigrants. In theory, sure, I would like to punish businesses that hire them, but that isn't going to magically result in native born Americans assuming those jobs, because the fact is native born Americans (in California) do not want those jobs, because they're likely overqualified or already have a better job.

I doubt it and i bet I'm dead on but keep on pretending if you must.

So we shouldn't hear complaints about unemployment around the country if people aren't willing to move and get jobs. Might be a welfare problem and artificially depressed wage problem as well.

Lol, likely overqualified.

There are a LOT of low skilled, unintelligent people in California.

Are we talking about immigrants or illegals?

Those jobs have never paid beyond minimum wage, so immigrants aren't suppressing wages in those industries. The reason we now need immigrants to fill those jobs is because of how the labor market changed over the past three decades. The minimum wage service industry jobs were typically filled by teenagers looking for pocket money. That is no longer the case since the average native born American teen now spends 100% of their formative years preparing for college.

Where wage suppression could be happening vis a vis immigration is actually in the higher skilled job market, through importing Chinese and Indian tech workers who are willing to work cheaper via H1B visas.

A new study presented that same day at Harvard University provides strong evidence supporting the critics’ view. It finds that adding employees on the H-1B visa, which is among the commonest and arguably most contentious vehicles for admitting highly skilled guest workers to the United States, has “insignificant effect on patenting, … substantially crowd[s] out employment of other workers, [and] leads to lower average employee wages while raising firm profits.”

But conservatives won't play ball here to address any potential solutions, since this is the "free market" at work. They'd argue a corporation should do whatever it can within legality to increase shareholder profit. "How about limit H1B visas?" Sure, but it'll cost more to hire American born workers, which will then result in higher prices for consumers. It's a pick your poison scenario: Foreign born=lower prices, American born=higher prices. Everyone wants "Made in America, by Americans," but no one wants to pay American made prices.

That might be, but in their own minds they're overqualified. If the Lori Loughlin family went totally broke tomorrow, with her dip daughters losing all their earning power as social media "influencers," there's no way in those kids are going to be putting in applications at McDonalds. The Loughlin girls basically represent the mentality of your average American born late-teen/20-something, who think they're too good, smart, and special for fast food or laborer work.

The notion that agricultural work is low skilled is laughable.

Why did slaves cost as much as houses in the civil war era if they were so "low skilled"?

I would expect kids of celebrities to have this mentality. What about middle class people? I know that's a shrinking demographic in CA.

Maids and those other jobs typically get paid more than minimum wage.

Yeah, it makes sense that you'll get less push back on suppressing higher wages than wages at the floor. The impact is much more significant. It also makes more sense to allow skilled people into the country over unskilled. But I've seen people still against it because of lower wages. My biggest problem with that is the country uses it to fill the void created by the terrible k-12 school system.

Our middle-class percentage is 40.9% vs. Texas's 42.9%, so that burn is pretty weak. Anyhow, middle-class parents tend to emphasize a college degree and high-paying "white collar" work for their children over blue collar/service industry jobs. Among the high school teenage demographic alone, the employment rate has fallen from 32% to 16% since 1990, so you can infer that parents and the kids are prioritizing the education/white collar path over other options (i.e. trade school/blue collar).
