Chico has some serious crime problems, but they pale compared to nearby Stockton. Stockton has a long and bloody history for ethnic gang violence, drug dealing, prostitution, car theft, armed robberies, and multi-generation welfare bums.
The latest event started inside a skid-row market and in the blink of an eye shots flew in all directions. It was allegedly over a gang turf war, a couple of competing gangster punks bumped into each other in the store and then all Hell broke loose.
All the participants, including the victims were black.
Had there been a cop involved somewhere in this shooting I imagine we would be listening to soapbox speeches by the usual (and very mobile) race-baiters. Thankfully, and for that reason alone, no cop shot anyone, good or bad! No, this was just another black gang thing, so common to Stockton. So, other than a high body count, it’s just an every day sort of crime.
Last year, suspected gang members robbed a bank, took three hostages and led police on a wild chase across the city until two were killed and the third captured.
“Anyone who knows the neighborhood knows it can be violent,” said Stockton police spokesman Joe Silva. “But when you have seven shot, three dead, that’s going to shake the whole community. It shows we still have a long way to go.”
Witnesses told police they heard dozens of shots and some said it sounded like a semiautomatic weapon.
Despite the reputation of the parking lot, it’s a neighborhood market – frequented by a range of people who live in the surrounding apartments in a neighborhood walking distance from City Hall, and a marina, hotel and convention center that was once hoped would change the fortunes of the city, but became party to its fall into bankruptcy.”
California has some of the toughest gun laws in the country. I’m trying to confirm this, but I believe this was a “gun free” zone. However, all the guns laws in the world wouldn’t have stopped this, nobody involved owned or carried a gun legally. Which begs the question, why are liberals always attacking the legal gun owners?
I lived in London England for a short time in an area called Eastham. the black kids were in trouble more than any other ethnic group and we had them all. it seems wherever there are blacks you have high crime. look at south Africa, France, Netherlands,show me where in the world blacks are not the main ethnic group comitting crimes. I have no clue why i just know it is.

The guy in the oval office is flat out nuts.
Thanks Peggy, I saw that too. Here’s Obama’s result of his stupid foreign policy: Our friends don’t trust us and our enemies don’t fear us. We are [[[[not]]]] safer because of this dunderhead!!!
Obama has allowed the dogs of war to run lose in the middle east and he’s virtually nothing. Iran has influence at the way to Lebanon. Israel is being threatened by nuclear weapons. Pakistan is harboring Muslim terrorists. Our embassies are being attacked at will. He insults our only true ally and democracy in the middle east Israel and befriends Palestine who hates us. Obama couldn’t even put a plan of action together to rescue 300 little girls from a child raping band Muslim militia! He was out maneuvered by Iran, Russia’s Putin and Al Qaeda former leader in Iraq al Bagdadhi. China engages in cyber-attacks, North Korean does cyber-hacking and threatens US businesses and citizens…our military equipment is stolen while we watch…our ambassador is murdered, American citizens are killed by ISIS… and Obama trades 5 Taliban ring leaders for an army deserter and he holds a press conference and claims victory as the master statesman. There’s more, but I can’t write anymore, I’m too disgusted.
Jack, do you think Obama and this administration are that dumb or do you think what they are doing is by design?
America’s presidents have supported and protected Israel since its beginning 50 years ago. Now, for the first time Obama is throwing them under the bus and out of existence.
Rubio’s speech today was right on today. Hopefully, the bipartisan letter from members of Congress to Obama will stop him from voting at the UN to destroy Israel.
The one disgusting thing you left off of you list of Obama’s failures/mistakes was him saying his one regret was not shutting down Gitmo, which would have released most if not all of the terrorist free to do more harm.
“Do you think Obama and this administration are that dumb or do you think what they are doing is by design?” Peggy
A question that millions of Americans are asking these days, isn’t it? Who knows for sure, but my guess, its a combination of both. There’s no doubt Obama has played by foreign leaders…that’s stupid. There’s no doubt he’s shot from the hip way too many times and been wrong every time. That’s because he’s a racist and he has romanticized Islam and can’t make any sort of leadership decisions without that getting the way.
Clearly, the man has demonstrated many times that he should have never been president, he wasn’t qualified to be anything except a charlatan. The Obama’s owe Americans a huge apology for the fraud they’ve committed on voters, posing as one thing and being another. We’ll never get an apology of course, that would take a person conscience and character.
“There’s more, but I can’t write anymore, I’m too disgusted”
I second that comment!

Actually, approval ratings from our allied countries are higher under Obama than they were under Bush.
” Israel is being threatened by nuclear weapons. Pakistan is harboring Muslim terrorists.”
Both of these things have been true for decades.
” Our embassies are being attacked at will.”
More embassies were attacked under Bush than under Obama.
Was Obama a fraud Jack, or did he tell us who and what he was, but it was so extreme people didn’t believe the truth?
This is from Ben Shapiro who lays his Israel actions all out from the beginning. I think he’s telling us what he is, but people can’t or don’t want to believe it. How many times can he lie? And yet people still believe he’ll tell us the truth.

Obama has a war on Israel? Is that the new Fox line? Everybody has a war against Fox.
Georgia, the perfect example of the cartoon ostrich. Obama is in a political war against Israel. Get a clue. It has nothing to do with Fox News, you dope.
I love it when morons try to make arguments based on attacking Fox News.
Re: “Actually, approval ratings from our allied countries are higher under Obama than they were under Bush.”
This from the jerk who constantly demands citations from Post Scripts.
Put up or shut up.
I won’t wait for Chris to bother giving any citations (which he always demands of others.)
Yes, Obama has greater favorable global poll ratings than Bush. So, what does that actually mean and what conclusions may be drawn from it?

Chris: Actually, approval ratings from our allied countries are higher under Obama than they were under Bush.
Wow Chris. That’s quite a statement without some documentation.
Pie, thanks for confirming my claim and providing a link in comment #14. I should have cited it myself, but I was in a hurry.
As you can see by clicking the Pew poll Pie cited, approval ratings among our allies have fallen in recent years, but remain higher than during the Bush era. Now they could continue to fall, but as of now it seems clear that allied countries have a more favorable impression of the U.S. under Obama than they did under Bush.
