Black lives matter unless he wears a badge or his killer doesn’t
My town burned and looted last week 60% of businesses minority where are the BLM relief workers and volunteers
This really is the impression many people have. And that's because it describes exactly what we see. Al Sharpton and similar leaders of Black communities never seem to talk about all the Black on Black murders. If they do we sure don't see it much.
And that's why BLM looks like such a fake, racist movement.
If there is any time to protest, and try to take back the streets and demand justice and the protection of blacks, it should be in Chicago. BLM isn't even paying lip service to the deaths in Chicago, they are too busy gathering in mobs to boo state governors who won't agree to disband entire police forces.
Why are all these men just hanging around to get shot by police or each other. They should be required to work every day for 8 hours if they can’t prove gainful employment or a legit disability. Let’s start with that.
Most of these shootings occur in the wee hours of the morning.
Young single, able, males are not eligible for welfare benefits.
Gangs are the retail end of the drug chain. The typical heroin addict is a white male, early 20’s, with a history of substance abuse. One rarely hears of white males getting shot at/ near open air drug markets. Gangs tend not to kill their clients. Maybe they grasp, their clients are killing themselves.
Some gangs are organized crime syndicates. They have equipment and can clean out a liqueur store Or warehouse in minutes. They target loaded train cars in rail yards, especially when the cargo is firearms.
Other gangs are relatively small factions who are always at war with other factions.Family and other affiliates of rival gang members are often targeted.
Then there’s the whole “ disrespect” thing.
It is a minority of a minority responsible for most of the carnage.
A few summers ago, local media was all over a story of a funeral that turned into a gun battle. Local alderman made local news when he said “ no innocents had died”.
It was a street memorial, not a funeral. The deceased was a gang member shot and killed in the line of his duty, whatever that was. His gang posted a challenge to a rival gang on social media. No surprise when rival gang members burst out of an alley, guns blazing. And they were off to the races.

A lions share of these shootings actually happen in broad daylight, in front of witnesses. No gangs are targeting and robbing trains for firearms, this isn't a James bond movie or an old western you can buy pistols on the corner in the hood for 100 bucks they are everywhere, and in these ghettos where alot of the violence is happening there is an epidemic of minority heroin addicts and drug addicts also. Your post reads like a weird mix of a Huffington post article, boyz N the Hood, and a James bond movie mixed together. These shootings are not just happening in the wee hours. They are shooting, have been shooting in the daytime, on main streets, down the street from the police station, on playgrounds, on main business strips and in front of witnesses that they sometimes kill with strays.
