Your comment is quite laughable and my point has completely gone over your head. You are correct though, 3 of the 8 were due to the negligence of the parents not having secured their firearms. My mistake, the number of children caught up in the crossfire is 6. And I never stated that BLM was protesting here, my question was why aren't they ?
I guess I don't understand and probably never will why riots are started , protests happen over the death of a criminal doing thug things (pointing a gun and a LEO) but the streets are silent over the deaths of children and any other innocent person caught up in the crossfire of this thug life. Our media is silent, our politicians are silent as well as BLM. For us laymen , it does not make sense. If black lives matter (actually all lives matter) why aren't they protesting for things that happen on a daily basis ? Please explain this to me ?
As far as the tragic death of the little girl...again , that was thugs doing thug things. The grandma knew her daughter was harboring a fugitive wanted for murder. And the grandma fought with the officer causing the negligent discharge. The daughter (mother of the little girl ) and the grandma are the ones to blame for the little girls death. They should have turned in the murdering thug that they were hiding. Geoffrey Figer, a huge proponent for cases like these walked away from it. And what , 3 miss trials now ? This wasn't the cops fault.
My question is WHY DO THEY NEED TO BE? Every city with violence in the black community have marches and rallies against violence. If a tree falls in the forest does it make any sound? Not if you are not in the forest to hear it. If blacks rally against violence in their community, does it make any sound? Again....not if you are not their to hear it.
When you see the world through the lens and pens of the media, all you THINK you KNOW is what they show you. If you want to start an organization that fights against violence in the black community....feel free.
Very sad. However, it isn't uncommon for children to lose their lives as a result of disputes between adults. Unfortunately, people are desensitized to such issues.
Lets face it, black on black violence, even resulting is death is portrayed as domestic violence as you would associate with a mother killing her children or some parent leaving their child to die in a hot car.

I'm just trying to figure out how all this makes sense. When our politicians , media and SJW's side with BLM movement and all the unjust towards criminals that deserve what they got why aren't they making noise for the innocent ? I guess I just can't wrap my head around it.

You cannot wrap your head around it because you do not have an open and objective mind. Your mind will not let you see or think in a way that contradicts your prejudgement. You have it all figured out already....and hence cannot wrap your mind around people who have come to different conclusions than you. There is nothing about BLM and this incident that I have a problem with understanding. I am in the forest with the trees.....you are out in the ocean somewhere.
Like someone pointed out.....when people get arrested and prosecuted....that is how the system is supposed to work. People get punished for their crimes. What is there to protest? Its because police get to play judge, jury and executioner.....and are not punished for taking a life, which requires protest.
If you want to make an omelet you have to break a few eggs. BLM, the Revolutionary Communist Party know people must be sacrificed for the revolution. They are willing for the price to be paid, if not by them, perhaps.
From that big pool of people eligible for sacrifice, the liberal dems take their share, as they sacrifice lives today, for the banishment of private gun ownership in the distant future. this perfectly explains why gun laws proposed exempt the people doing most of the killing and sucede only in suffocating the freedom law abiding gun owners.
The academic theory that drives the ideology of hillay and obama is 'the absence of guns is directly proportional to the elimination of guns. Zero guns means zero deaths. With an eye on that prize, Dems are happy to sacrifice innocent 7 year olds to achieve their theoretical goals at some distant time in the future.
Further, they theorize that increased number of gun laws are inversely proportional to gun violence.
Blindly ignoring statistics, Obama tells us that the cities with the tightest gun laws have the least amount of violence. A clear denial of reality and qualifies obama as a science denier.
BLM cares not a whit for black lives, neither do hillary and obama as evidenced by the death toll in our cities.

So , I'm the one with a problem because I don't understand how some organization chooses to protest over criminals but is silent over innocent victims , all of the same color ? What does having an open mind or not, have to do with this ? Shouldn't the name be "Black Lives Matter....only if shot by a cop"
