Interesting……

12 killed, dozens wounded in weekend shootings across U.S.

At least 12 people were killed and dozens more were wounded over the weekend in gun violence and mass shootings in five states.

Interesting race is not mentioned yet they include a paragraph…..

The races and ages of the victims haven't been released. An analysis of 2019 fatal U.S. shooting data published this year by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found that Black men and boys were disproportionately affected by gun violence.

The analysis found that young Black men were especially vulnerable. Even though they make up just 2 percent of the population, they accounted for 37 percent of all gun homicide deaths in 2019, and they were 20 times more likely to die by gun violence than their white counterparts.

And the silence continues from Obama, Rev. Al, Jesse Jackson, and BLM

3 beautiful little black children were murdered in Minneapolis by street thugs last week in 3 different incidents. Oldest was 10 years old and the youngest was 6 and she had a beautiful smile. She was jumping on her trampoline in the backyard. Not a god damn word on the National news and no idiotic BLM around anywhere. THEY DONT CARE.

How many of those 37 percent of all gun homicide deaths in 2019, were killed by white cops?

Or by white people of any description?

Black Lives Matter is abhorrent. With their funding and high profile they could legitimately HELP black lives in these crime ridden areas. Instead they choose to throw their money and influence around as a political cudgel.

The media isn’t going to sensationalize this since none of the shootings involved a White cop.

As for BLM, they’re a scam... Nothing less and nothing more.

What are we suppose to be angry about here?

The old “BLM doesn’t care!” shtick even though it has nothing to do with violence between private parties?

That's a cop out. A well funded organization with media clout named BLACK LIVES MATTER should maybe, just once in a great while prove that black lives really DO matter to them, don't you think?

We all know they're alleged agenda and it is based on falsehoods at every turn.

How many homicide deaths would we be seeing if they didn`t have guns?

Look at the violence these street thugs bring to any situation but somehow when violence happens between them and cops it’s a shocking tragedy in the liberal world.

BLM deals with police brutality.
How ironic
