Animals killing Animals, good keep it up! Wait was it a black male? Sure was, no regard for other people’s lives. From Richmond, no way! Say it aint so lol Black Lives Matter right? LOL clowns! Keep killing each other and do us all favor. No job, no morals, no values, just thugs with welfare checks. Here comes the race baiters to shame me, most are exactly what I described or have family or friends that are what I described. Or they live somewhere far in a nice little neighborhood and don’t have no idea how these animals are ruining Antioch. .

MIke James May 25, 2016 - 4:02 pm

I Agree…

Gary May 25, 2016 - 4:21 pm

I’m black and I’m not offended at all by your statement. Antioch was a nice city until thugs from Oakland, Richmond and San Francisco moved into once peaceful neighborhoods.

If these idiots want to kill each other I suggest putting ALL thugs on a island by themselves and let nature take its course!

Charles A May 26, 2016 - 10:39 am

Yep

Brad May 25, 2016 - 5:13 pm

They are animals and should be treated as such.

Bob May 25, 2016 - 6:11 pm

Are you saying there’s a specific genetic origin to crime, or simply a specific cultural dysfunction? Yes, black males are statistically the most perpetuating a lot of these east bay violent crimes, but why so? Are we talking genetic abnormalities here?

Robert Ward Jiles May 25, 2016 - 7:06 pm

A life is a life I’m a black man I go to work pay my bills and take Care of my famliy and there are many many more like me I don’t like to see a life taken from. Senseless vilence no matter what race ALL LIVES MATTER

Princess O May 25, 2016 - 8:06 pm

Thank You Mr. Jiles! I was attempting to Report the comments as well.

R. J. B May 25, 2016 - 8:42 pm

I am black and I agree with your comment. In fact, I consistently speak the truth about these animals terrorizing our neighborhoods and sucking off the gubmint tit for a handout.

Mike Hunt May 26, 2016 - 9:06 am

Yes Rim Job Betty (RJB), we’ve read all your comments and aren’t amused. Pretty easy to see that you’re also Charles A and Gary Gilbert. How clever, a self-hating racist trinity full of hot air and no sense lol.

Sernie Banders May 26, 2016 - 10:58 am

Mike Hunt aka Mr Race Baiter. Everything is racist to this clown! You mention anything factual about blacks, he cries foul! Typical braindead liberal with no argument just cries of racism lol please go drink bleach and help the world save precious oxygen

Charles A May 26, 2016 - 11:02 am

No. Im.Charles A. Born in oakland moved to antioch in 2002.

Gary Gilbert May 26, 2016 - 2:02 pm

And I am Gary Gilbert. Ask around!

Bob May 26, 2016 - 7:49 pm

RJB you clever racist! Actually I agree, these crimes are mostly perpetuated by blacks. By why so? Are you claiming that they have some sort of mutation? Genetic abnormality? What’s your real argument, you shmuck?

R..j..B May 27, 2016 - 12:33 am

Racist PIG

Racist? Truth is racist right? get over yourself Al Sharpton, nothing racist about facts about animals. Slap your mama for raising an idiot

Anonymous May 26, 2016 - 11:51 pm

I personally know this mans sister, you’re generalizing. He isn’t that kind of person. You suck and you shouldn’t judge people when you don’t know them. Step off.

Joshua Free May 27, 2016 - 5:29 am

You should have some respect for people that know the people that are dead. Straight up white trash.

Michael Roy May 25, 2016 - 3:37 pm

God bless you, you are bitter and thats a horrible way to live… God bless your life 🙂

Jim Simmons May 25, 2016 - 4:56 pm

Yet another reason why never to vote for Wade Harper or Monica Wilson into a political office again. This is getting sad. Near a school too!

Brad May 25, 2016 - 5:12 pm

Black lives don’t matter.

Charles A May 25, 2016 - 6:34 pm

I agree with Mike Roy

Ann R May 25, 2016 - 6:46 pm

No matter what you think, that was someone’s life that was lost. It’s easy to sit behind a computer and have an opinion or make assumptions but you don’t know what actually happened.

Django (the D is silent) May 25, 2016 - 7:05 pm

Im just a black man happy to see white people expressing their real feelings about black people, keep up the good work. ??
The real animals of the world are the people who were actually willing to own a slave, thats just monsterous. Lol. Lets not forget about the rapist and murderist background most white people come from. We play the hands we’re delt right? Yours is looking pretty sweet from where im sitting. ?

Charles A May 25, 2016 - 7:09 pm

Black Lives only matter to black people when a white person kills a black person. And I’m a black man saying this. When a black person kills a black person you hear ” free my n*gg@ ” smh lol

Paula Deen May 25, 2016 - 7:15 pm

Wtf is wrong with you people? Do you think your thoughts of hatred and racism makes you better? Thats an animalistic mentality, i bet your grandparents and great grandparents were slave owners! A monsterous bloodline of human beings.

V. Colon May 25, 2016 - 7:46 pm

If it was a white kid thn wht?

Django (the D is silent) May 25, 2016 - 7:49 pm

Wtf is wrong with you people? Do you really think your hateful, racist thoughts and remarks are helping the world? Its animalistic to own a slave, thats a monsterous action of any human being. Check your ancestry, those were the real animals. Most white people come from a racist, monsterous and murderous background so I understand your frustration. Its in your DNA, but being a fight and surviver is in my Lol ?. We play the hands we’re delt right? Just live and let live… All Lives Matter!!

Bradley May 25, 2016 - 11:13 pm

Unless you failed to realise the very first slave owners were fellow Africans selling africans. In facts slavery runs deeper through your own culture than any other. Ever actually look up your own history or just another sheep without your own opinion.

R. J. B May 25, 2016 - 8:45 pm

Black LIES matter

Gary May 25, 2016 - 10:12 pm

If you REALLY want to start the process of lowering black on black crime then black men need to STOP making babies that they refuse to mentally, emotionally, and most important, financially support. Young black men need a male role model physically living in the home with the mother and giving his child the guidance he needs to become a man of honor and integrity.

And for God’s sake, stop blaming white folks for your personal stupidity. Slavery ended over 400 years ago and some of you idiots are still playing the race card for every problem you have in life. Every other race can come to the United States with a dream and five dollars in their pockets and they become successful. But you fools were born and raised here and are too lazy to get up and go to work in the morning to make something of yourselves. Instead you whine and complain about the MAN keeping you down when the truth is the only person holding you back is the image in the mirror.

Black folks have more opportunities today then any time in History but many of you would rather sit on your ass and let the government take care of you. You wanted a black President and you got him and what happened? Black folks are worse off than ever before!

With regard to the young man who lost his life, let’s wait and see if those poverty pimps and race hustlers Al Sharpton & Jesse Jackson show up to support his family? I doubt it because to them his life DOES NOT MATTER because he wasn’t killed by a white police officer.

My condolences to his family.

Gary Gilbert May 26, 2016 - 6:02 am

Let’s wait and see if poverty pimps and race hustlers Al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson will come to Antioch to protest this shooting. Oh wait, no they won’t be here because this young man’s life DOES NOT MATTER because he wasn’t killed by a white police officer.

Will members of the Black Lives Matter group hold a rally at city hall because this young black man was gunned down in the street? Of course not because this kid isn’t worth their time and effort and doesn’t fit their agenda because his life was taken by another black man.

Black folks have completely lost their collective minds. Stop blaming everyone else for the self destruction of your lives. Black men stop making babies with multiple women that you have no intention of taking care of. These kids NEED you living in the home, married to their mother, and providing mental, emotional, and financial support for your children. Giving these kids the stable life they deserve will substantially decrease crime and violence in cities around the country.

My condolences to family who lost their loved one.

Charles A May 26, 2016 - 8:33 am

Amen

ALL LIVES MATTER I REALLY DON’T GET PEOPLE THERE ARE KILLINGS GOING ON EVERYWHERE

SDO May 25, 2016 - 10:52 pm

I bet that none of you who are leaving racist comments have the guts to walk up to someone of color and speak the same. Real brave hiding behind a keyboard.Oh and before I forget the majority of those on Welfare within Antioch city limits are White and the majority of Antioch Tax base comes from blacks who own them nice houses like me who also Retired at the age of 55 with a pension that’s probably more than you are worth. So when you stereotype have your facts strait RACIST PIG

Sernie Banders May 26, 2016 - 10:04 am

Majority in Antioch on welfare are white?????? Lmao hahahahahhaha moron! bullcrap non sense you’re making up. 65% of black males are unemployed across America idiot. Also you think people of color are the boogeyman? lol this moron says no one has the guts like they are another powerful species that would eat you alive hahahahaha Black Lies matter but yours don’t

SDO is a liar and delusional May 26, 2016 - 10:07 am

Black own houses in Antioch? You mean they rent section 8 houses that were once million dollar homes on other tax payers dimes? You are so full of yourself. and Blacks are highest on welfare in the entire East Bay. Stop making up stuff

Dasefx May 26, 2016 - 8:00 pm

Yes, we own homes in Antioch. Businesses as well…. I know, I am one of them.

Disgusted and Concerned May 26, 2016 - 12:37 am

It’s simple really, this kinda shit has been happening for years & years…just not here! We all grew up knowing violent crime was on the rise in the inner cities of America, but most of us only saw it in the news. Well guess what, the inner city has moved into our suburbs and who do we have to thank for setting that in motion?

Yes, our so called city leaders! They still act as if they’ve done no wrong while our city deteriorates, and seek re-election to continue leading this community into ruins!

These city officials should all be repealed & prohibited from running for ANY higher office. By now they should see that they can remove people from the inner-city, but they can’t remove the inner-city mentality from those people!

How sad Antioch has become…

Lance May 26, 2016 - 5:50 am

First Slave owners where Blacks of a White man in BC1600, also est 40,000 women children raped and slaughtered in 1937 by Japan in the taking of the City Nanking over the course est total 60-70,000 unarmed men women children raped and slaughtered by the Japan Army, Then what about Hilters area, We dont hear much about all the above victums shooting robbing living off the tax dollar asking for hand outs
Just saying if we all want have a honest conversation

Nini May 26, 2016 - 9:06 am

I actually knew this young man. He had a hard life. Not saying that is an excuse to take someones life whatsoever! Just remember he is a human being who wasn’t born this way. He made a bad choice and will now face the consequences. I pray for both families affected by this tragedy.

Nick May 26, 2016 - 9:07 am

Antioch is getting worse, but it’s NEVER been a nice town. Same with Pittsburg. You get what you pay for.

Wyo Ming May 26, 2016 - 9:30 am

How cute, Nick the Negative Nancy.

Unome May 26, 2016 - 9:16 am

Can we stop with playing this race card crap. It’s really getting rediculous. Get over it about the slave stuff. It was blacks who sold blacks to others when that stuff happened Hundreds Of Years Ago. It’s done and gone. People should focus on why youths are killing each other and try to correct this mentality of thought. These high crime areas need to join in together and address this at the street level. Parents need to educate and be responsible for their young adults by being involved in what they do and who they hang with. Get your act together and focus on repairing the horrible downgrade of society.

Bob May 26, 2016 - 9:23 am

Exactly. And until these racial soapbox preachers can answer the one most important question about it all, their explanations are null: are blacks most responsible for these violent east bay crimes due to genetic abnormalities or what? We are all one species, so what’s the origin of the “blacks are most responsible” argument?

R. J. B. May 26, 2016 - 2:08 pm

Oh how the section 8 supporters and black baby’s mama nag and whine all day about how their way of life should be admired and they should be treated with the same respect as any upstanding tax payer who struggles everyday to put food in their tables and food on the table of you free loading uneducated, racist, dangerous, drug addict, scum thugs and criminals.

Oh how the truth hurts.

Now back to your free 5 bedroom homes, free medical marijuana, free Obama phones, and free food that we hard workers pay for.

LMAO. your precious messiah Obama will soon be out and so will your free loading asses be kicked back onto the streets.

Bob May 26, 2016 - 10:40 pm

Yes, blacks are statistically responsible for perpetuating most these crimes, but you have yet to answer why so? Why blacks in particular? Mutations? Genetic abnormalities? If so, which genes? Until you can put your finger on the actual origin of why blacks are the biggest perpetuators, you just sound like a bag of hot air. Most of us on here are also against our government’s free hand out policy with almost everything. But for an educated conversation, what’s the origin of the black crimewave?

Charles A May 27, 2016 - 7:08 am

Lol

GRRRR May 26, 2016 - 5:59 pm

Nick you are an idiot Pittsburg and Antioch were nice towns at one time. Also “you get what you pay for” you ignorant snob. Many live here because we get what we can afford and don’t you dare try to put people down because they are not more wealthy. There are many many hard working people in Pittsburg and Antioch you jerk. Many generations of good family oriented folks.

Charles A May 27, 2016 - 7:07 am

Us Black people are quick to report “racist” comments but when they see a black person commit a crime it’s “no snitching”. Lol. We look like fools sometimes.

Gary Gilbert May 27, 2016 - 8:25 am

Amen brother Charles! So tired of the “woe is me I’m black so I need everything handed to me without having to work for it” attitude. Society, the government, taxpayers owe you nothing!

Black folks voted and believe that Obama was the “Savior” of the black community and what did they get for their loyalty? Higher unemployment, more blacks on welfare & food stamps then any other time in history, and perverted men given the right to use women bathrooms with our wives and daughters. The ignorance of most black folks just boggles the mind. And now what do we see? These same folks working hard to put a Socialist in the White House. God help you people. It’s so funny it’s sad.

Disgusted and Concerned May 27, 2016 - 11:46 am

Hey Nick, how long have you been in Antioch? Obviously not long enough to remember it being a decent place to live, work and play!

Nick May 27, 2016 - 1:17 pm

I’ve never lived in Antioch or Pittsburg. I grew up in Walnut Creek in the 70s, and we live in Oakley. Growing up, Antioch and Pittsburg were the towns in East County to avoid, and they still are. You can’t have cheaper housing and better living. The truth hurts. Deal with it.

Disgusted and Concerned May 28, 2016 - 12:09 pm

Well good for you, Nick! I’m glad you avoided our town, I’m sure you felt it was beneath you to come here…

I grew up here, graduated in 87 from Antioch High, and this city was NOT a bad place to live. Sure we had some white trash, tweekers and homeless, every city has some. But even with the drugs and derelicts we didn’t worry about being shot or robbed in broad daylight, or carjacked, or having our homes invaded…this is the result of the “new” element that has been invited here!

Human Being May 28, 2016 - 2:36 pm

I can hardly believe what I’m reading from some of these “humans”….
If you celebrate the loss of life through violence, your an animal…
I’m tired of idiots acting like society, community and govern’t isn’t playing a role in or responsible for the current plight…
Who doesn’t want to go work, but who the fucc deserves to go to work for a job making less than a livable wage…
INDENTURED LABOR
All black people ever asked for is to be treated by the “content of their character and not the color of our skin”…..
Not by the way I wear my hat, or because I smoke marijuana, or my abstract tattoo’s, my hoodie, my sometimes baggy pants….
But by whats in a muthafucca’s heart man….
The fucc is wrong with some of you human beings…. this shit sad….
I love you all regardless as brothers and sisters under god, but damn the level of ignorance and entitlement I just read make its hard….

Gary Gilbert May 29, 2016 - 12:05 pm

If you walk, talk, dress, and act like thug then don’t be surprised or sensitive when others treat you like a thug.
