Should we pull the police out? Too dangerous, better cut and run.

Hey, even cities that aren't ghettos, are less safe than Bagdad. Take Orlando, Fl. Lots of people die here, violently everyday. but, you don't hear about it on the national news.

there are no car bombings in the ghettos. Not only that, one location is in the U.S. where our troops and police belong and another location is in a country that we don't belong.
Your logic is as bad as those that make light of the U.S. troops deaths by saying there are more deaths each year in car accidents. Using that logic, why not say, why retaliate for 9-11 as there are more people killed in car accidents each year. Don't compare apples to oranges. It never works because there is no comparison.

I have never heard of someone driving a car into a busy marketplace and blowing it up, killing 30+ people in any American ghetto. That is a stupid question with a completely idiotic logic behind it. It's no wonder people like bashing conservatives like you.

I agree that we shouldn't cut and run, but that is a bad analogy. I'm sorry, but I wouldn't be worried about being blown up walking around Washington Heights, or down by the Anacosta in Washingtons SouthEast.

No. There are dangerous places all over the country, but none of them are or were a war zone. I'm pretty sure there aren't tanks patrolling the perimeter of DC (considering it's the new murder capital of the US).

No. Most murders in the ghetto are caused by gangsters fighting over drug turf. Indiscriminate mayhem is frowned upon as it is bad for business

No. We have some gang violence, but when was the last time a gang set up a checkpoint and killed everyone with a 'wrong-sounding' name?
And, there have been cases when the police have simply abandoned a neighborhood that fell too far into lawlessness. Not for long, but it's happened.

I haven't heard in the news of a ghetto in the US being blown up by a suicide bomber with 60 or more people getting killed.
Care to cite any sources?

No, no they aren't. So far, thankfully, nobody's laying roadside bombs in Compton. But yes, there are plenty of neighborhoods where the police don't go.

Are you suggesting we should bomb Newark & Trenton with USAF? We also should send the National Guard to OCCUPY the streets of Newark.
