[snooper2]

6. Where are the leaders and what are the solutions should be your first thought

Education-
Parents-
Insane Drug Penalties-
Schools-

[Erich Bloodaxe BSN]

11. My solutions tend to include removing guns, which gets a lot of flack on this site. nt

[snooper2]

17. 100's of millions of guns make that an virtually impossible task therefore- NonStarter

[Erich Bloodaxe BSN]

25. Everything is a nonstarter until you actually start doing it. nt

35. keep at it-I am right there with you...

21. I love it when white people try to educate black people about the problems

that occur in the black community.

And then tell them to get off their ass and fix those problems.

As if this had never occurred to the members of those communities.

2. Just so you know, I'm reporting this thread...

and I'm sure you have no fucking idea why.

[snooper2]

7. reporting? alerting? Is there a new reporting feature we didn't get clued in on?

[luvspeas]

30. yeah yeah alerted, I hope you did it too...

I hope all of you are.

3. popcorn any one?

4. You should really self-delete this. Black people know that black people kill other black people.

A lot of them have witnessed it firsthand.

This is paternalistic whitesplaining.

[JoePhilly]

16. Look man ... we can't worry about cops killing unarmed blacks until ...

... blacks stop killing other blacks.

So until then ... can you please just STFU??

Thank you so very much.

(this OP is one of the most brain-dead things I've ever seen posted on DU, and that is saying something)

24. This is straight out of the Hannity files nt

31. YUP ... and totally amazing.

8. Right-Wing Media Push "Black-On-Black" Crime Canard To Deflect From Ferguson Police Shooting

http://mediamatters.org/research/2014/08/18/right-wing-media-push-black-on-black-crime-cana/200467

WSJ's Riley: "We Need To Talk About Black Criminality." Appearing on the August 17 edition of NBC's Meet the Press, The Wall Street Journal's Jason Riley discussed the shooting death of Michael Brown in Ferguson by saying: "Let's not pretend that our morgues and cemeteries are full of young black men because cops are shooting them. The reality is that it's because other black people are shooting them." Riley went on to assert that "we need to talk about black criminality" because blacks make up "50 percent of homicide victims in this country, and 90 percent of those victims are killed by other black people." [NBC, Meet the Press, 8/17/14]

Fox's MacCallum: Where Are Obama And Sharpton On "Black-On-Black Violence?" During an August 18 segment questioning the appropriateness of President Obama sending condolences and issuing a statement about the death of Michael Brown, co-host Martha MacCallum asked: "What about the children who are being killed in the streets in Chicago? What about black-on-black violence? Where is Al Sharpton on that? Where is the president on that?" [Fox News, America's Newsroom, 8/13/14]

NRO: Black-On-Black Violence, Not "Nasty White Cops," Are "What's Plaguing Black America." In an August 18 post for National Review Online, Bernard Goldberg pivoted from a discussion of the death of Michael Brown to discuss how intraracial violence was "what's plaguing black America." Goldberg declared that the "African-American elite" and "white liberals" don't care about the lives of young black men because they don't talk about black people killing one another:

9. Oh, FFS!!!

This? Not helping. At all.

[malaise]

10. And white people are overwhelmingly killed by white people

and the same is true for Hispanics so the point is...?

[La Lioness Priyanka]

20. no one is racist because blacks kill blacks

clearly that is the point

[PeaceNikki]

12. Gross. Free Republic is thata-way -->

[kelliekat44]

13. And, whites are overwhelmingly killed by whites. nt

[kelliekat44]

18. Sorry, Malaise...blinded by rage, i didn't see your post. nt

[billymayshere]

14. This should be an interesting afternoon on DU!

[La Lioness Priyanka]

15. most crime is intra-racial. this is not just a black issue, it's an issue of criminology

we kill mostly people we know. we know most people within our race. so most people get killed by someone of their own race.

i literally don't know what the fuck your point is, and why you are still allowed on DU.

[bravenak]

19. This is very racist. I am seeing a pattern.

We protest police killing us and your response is STOP COMPLAINING WHAT ABOUT BLACK ON BLACK CRIME? REALLY?

Did you think this was appropriate or going to win the hearts and minds of black voters? N. You just want to attack us and shame us and be horrible.

So fuck us, what about black on black crime? Is this how you guys wanna play this? Looks like you want a left vs black war. Nice.

[PeaceNikki]

27. A similar post made in a thread stood 1-6 last week. Shameful.

JURY RESULTS

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Tue Jul 21, 2015, 03:41 PM, and the Jury voted 5-2 to HIDE IT.

Juror #1 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Inflammatory, inappropriate as presented. Divisive.
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Don't see it as race-baiting; in fact, if policies to reduce homicides in this country are to have any effect, such data (if accurate) must be part of the solution. I would hate to think any discussion of homicides risks some charge of race-baiting.
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Not against the rules to race bait
Juror #5 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: WTF!? Go sell this on Free Republic.
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Actually the article they link to was fact checked - they gave it a zero out of ten for accuracy.
Juror #7 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: yeah, off to DI with this crap. plenty of racists over there already posting this shit daily.

Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.

32. This shit is evil.

37. This place is not friendly to minorities. Moderation by mob will often stomp on minorities.

Sorry.

No Relation @TheCosby

There is a difference between private citizens killing each other and the government sanctioned murder of citizens.

23. This is racist.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

26. incredibly so. nt

[bravenak]

34. He knows it too.

[Travis_0004]

38. It is an accurate fact

I don't know why everybody is afraid to talk about it.

Its not to say we shouldn't do nothing about bad police or racist, we can multi tasks and adress all of the above, but it does seem like people sometimes like to ignore the elephant in the room.

[bravenak]

28. Yep. Still racist.
