It cuts both ways........
Trump doesn't tout his experience as a "community leader" in Chicago like Obama did. Anyone who cared half a whit at the time (2008 and 2012) could have looked at Obama's Chicago "Community Organizer" experience and realized what a completely inept doofus he was, still is, and always will be.

" But the neighborhoods have to be SAFE first." The 1st step is for the residents of those neighborhood to HELP the police in STOPPING the problems.

Yep, keep on rioting and burning down business's, THEN complain when you have no place to shop or can't find a job!

Not to be outdone, Baltimore is still a war zone with black on black gang banging shootouts despite all this protesting for “justice.”

If a pandemic and national race riot won’t stop inner city black on black violence, nothing will.

Violence is all those in the inner city ghettos know. Many of those doing the killing don't expect to live past 30. They don't care who dies. They don't care if they themselves die. What can you do with that? Answer that? And leave political parties out of this.

Get rid of the welfare state which encourages couples to not stay together and raise their kids. The problem is children who raised in single parent families.

This was a problem BEFORE the welfare state. Violence and gangs were a problem in the inner city ghettos before the welfare state ever took hold. One place I've seen many single mothers in one place is at Wal-Mart, working in middle management. This is why I don't blame welfare. I blame it on the moral breakdown in America. And in the Black population, single-parent homes were always higher than anyone else going back to WWII.
