Black males being victims of murder, it's nothing new. This has been the case for over a century. It's been going on since about 1900 or 1910. No one cared as long as Black people were on "their" side of the tracks. Few people in the media covered it, UNTIL the 1970s and 80s, when murder rates were much higher. I don't expect BLM to talk about Black on Black violence, therefore, I don't say anything in that regards.
And something else. If you truly want to see Black on Black violence dropped dramatically, then maybe it needs to be punished with the same fervor and stringency as Black on non-Black crimes. Many Black criminals traditionally hurt and killed their own people because they figured "no one cares if you hurt another Black person".
Isn’t 12 killed and dozens shot just over the average Chicago weekend?
And they talk about the victims being mostly black. While the don’t mention that there are a higher % of black offenders than there are black victims.
I know, I know. It’s the “culture”, Socio-economic status, single parent households.
Strange thing is there are more poorer whites, living in single parent households, with similar socio-economic status that have nowhere near the violent crime rates.
Well then, why do we keep hearing about things like welfare and single parent households? And while I'm probably going to disagree with you, if you think single parenthood isn't the reason, then what do you think?
Yes. And they disproportionately do it in areas completed controlled by Democrats.
Because alot of Black people live in Democratic areas. Black homicide rates are high in Republican-controlled cities too. Anywhere Black people are living in ghettos, the Black homicide rate is high, regardless of what political party in is charge.
There’s already been programs and people spreading messages of peace through the black community for a while now. It’s an issue that requires a socio-economic change aswell.

The U.S. government didn't strategically start a drug war in those areas.
They're less populated/more rural and under less police scrutiny. Much less.

Tell the Democrats that control every nook and cranny of Chicago.

Or Republicans who control Jacksonville and Tulsa. Jacksonville's homicide rates has been on the rise for years. One of the most dangerous zip codes in Florida happens to be in Jacksonville. Oklahoma has one of the highest Black homicide rates in America. A bulk of the Black homicides take place in Tulsa and Oklahoma City. Republican cities in a Republican state. Like I said, wherever you have ghettos, those ghettos will have high Black homicide rates.
We should probably make it illegal-er for criminals to have guns. That’ll surely do it!
And if so many blacks are killing other blacks, and blacks don’t like this, why do black communities keep raising so many black criminals?
Magoo, you crack me up!
Most Black people aren't raising criminals. The segment of the Black population raising criminals is the UNDERCLASS. The Black population has a larger underclass (per capita) than other groups.
