The 2nd Amendment should have come with people control. At least it mentioned regulation. But 2nd Amendment supporters don't take that part seriously. They may even be opposed to a judge taking guns away from mentally ill people threatening to shoot people dead. They'll tell you mentally ill people have to keep their guns because they are among those who most likely to need to defend their lives. In other words, no red flag laws allowed.

It is indeed the worst violence in over 3 decades, and on pace to get worse.

I don't watch CNN or FOX News, so I don't really know what has been reported by either of them as of lately. However, Black on Black crime has been discussed in the news. It's not like people aren't talking about it.

Indeed they are. It is especially sad when children get shot.

Perhaps it needs talked about more so something can be done about it. One would think BLM would step in, rather than doing nothing and watching it continue.

Who cares and who’s doing something about it? Is black on black violence/deaths going down?

FACTS DO NOT MATTER.
The goal is DIV IDE AND CON QUER.
Foster hatred, real or fake, and woke is a joke.
Then the PREDATORS need not fear the wrath of their victims.
