Why is it that famous black preachers only collect money, and NEVER address black on black killings?
And why is it that almost all of the high murder cities are led by black, Democrat "leaders?" Just curious.
I've lived in 2 of the most talked about cities on CD Memphis and St. Louis. They are both lead by Whites. Both are in conservative States. St. Louis has an atrocious history of guns and drugs being left in abandoned houses in Black neighborhoods. Why is it that
metopolitain Springfield Missouri and Anchorage Alaska plagued with a high violent crime rate?
Imo, if drugs and guns (neither manufactured in or by the Black community) where left out of the picture, we wouldn't be having this conversation.
As far as famous Black preachers doing nothing to address Black on Black killings? How do you know they aren't? Because Fox news or CNN doesn't say so? Why aren't famous White preachers doing anything about White on White killings?

Cincinnati now at 10, possibly 11 counting the body found in the east end which is being investigated as a homicide but nothing is determined officially whether foul play is involved.
When in doubt, try to use insults to discredit someone else own opinion as though what you say is 100% accurate. Typical
Fair enough, but the rest of my post had nothing to do with insults. It had to do with addressing points previously made. Thanks for addressing the rest of the post. Oh wait..
Unless you have first hand knowledge about something regarding what is said, and what is not said, especially within a community to which you don't belong, may I suggest that mouths stay shut?
Most of these are fairly up-to-date. I can't get an accurate read on Houston but they had 29 homicides in January, so my guess is that they're somewhere around 60 or 65 homicides with between 2.5 and 2.8 per 100K. Some other cities like Portland and Austin I also can't get a semi accurate read on.

Very comphrenesive list, good work!
Impressed that San Diego hasn't had a single homicide yet

Didn't need to address the rest of the post, it was all irrelevant and pointless. But continue to do you, though.

Why is it irrelevant and pointless? If you are going to say something like "100K is pointless" then back up your reasoning instead of just making a 1 line statement. Regardless of my "attack", I provided you my reasoning for why things are more nuanced. I would love to hear your reasoning for why this is "irrelevant and pointless."
