LOL. Yeah, sure, it's all about gun violence. Every week it's all about gun violence, that apparently never takes place anywhere else in the country. Where are the weekly threads about gun violence in any other major city in the country?

You got all that from this?

This happens literally every weekend in Chicago (and in most major cities in the United States).

Is there a reason why this is thread worthy?


Wow.

If you are going to make such broad sweeping statements about one person, at least back it up with some proof. I don't see any proof involved. Said person did not say "the Black murder rate isn't that high". Said person simply asked why anyone would consider this to be worthy of making a thread for.

If proof cannot be provided, then the statement in bold is a lie. And lies constitute dishonesty, which in turn, results in a loss of credibility.

Actually, Chicago's murder rate is projected to be around 16.6 murders per 100,000. There are so many other cities with higher murder rates. No mention of Philadelphia, New Orleans, or even St. Louis, until now. No one mentioned St. Louis until that stuff with Michael Brown came up.

Something else no one has thought about. Chicago logged 970 murders in 1974, and 943 murders in 1992.

In 2013, there were 441 murders. There are 2.7 million people in Chicago.

Part of my point. I'm calling into account the credibility of said statements. If one is to make a statement that is very fallacious, then said person should be required to back it up with some proof.

Why is it, when a young black male kills another black person, the apologists come out of the woodwork to brush it off? For the life of me, I can't understand why it only bothers them when the shooter is white. Don't black lives matter to these people?
