1/2 of the murders get committed by Blacks. No refuting that. I'm not here to refute that. There is another side of this. The vast majority of the persons who are murdered by Black men are Black men. Black men between ages 15-34 make up the largest demographic of murder victims in this nation. Black men are the ones who get murdered, far more than anyone else. Few people ever seem to talk about that side of it.

We should not play God.
Sarcasm, and or satire - noted

Surely it matters where these murders occur that might be more noteworthy then simply the color of the person's skin.

Most of these murders occur in areas that are quite poor, and often rife with drug dealing.

Funny, I remember my Mom and Dad talking about times when they were poor and no one was murdered.

I wish people would quit making excuses for people with violent tendencies.

You'd think that would be alarming, to someone...anyone really.

I never said it was an excuse. I was responding to someone who was asking where these murders were being committed. I answered the question. Primarily, alot of murders occur in places that are quite poor, inner city areas, full of drug dealers and drugs, I was merely stating a fact.

It wasn't a story, just another post in thread about the Memorial Day shootings in Clearwater Beach, Fla.

It's alarming to alot of people, and many are speaking out. However, those who should listen often don't listen.

Furthermore, my main point was this: It is so easy to talk about Black committing murders, but when it comes to Blacks being victims of murder, well, it isn't really talked about nearly as much. It isn't considered alarming when alot of Blacks are victims. However, my point is this: You can't talk about Blacks committing murders without talking about the fact that Blacks make up the vast majority of victims. If you can't talk about Blacks being the victims of murder, then it is no use talking about Blacks committing murders.
