If you think that will work, why don't you try it. I'm guessing that you don't get the whole point of my post and you don't care. If that was the case, why bother responding at all?

Seems like many big cities are at a boiling point and people just don't care anymore.

303 homicides already this year in the city of 610,000 people.

Amazing, that even with swarms of police officers and detectives one block over that inner-city thugs just don't care.
Not to worry, BLM is on the job!

What constitutes "large African-American community", outside of the majority Black cities?

BLM is about police brutality. Violent crime by regular citizens, well, that is another matter.

One more question. You say that African-Americans are the problem. What do you think should be done about it, if you believe that race is the issue?

Pssst: It's what THEY need to do about it, not everyone else. And educate yourself about the demographics of these urban areas.

It's a cultural issue--no respect for authority or education. And most importantly, the destruction of the family unit, with Uncle Sam as the baby daddy (thanks, LBJ).

Well, that particular person brought it up. I asked said person what he or she was going to do about it. If we Blacks are such a problem, what are you going to do about it?

BTW, I've never lived in the ghetto, I've never been in trouble with the law, I come from a two parent home with both parents still married today. Go address the hood rats within the Black population. The rest of the Black population has nothing to do with this.
