“They say black lives matter. You killed your own. You killed your own this time,” — Secoriya Williamson, father of the murdered girl

While I sympathize with Mr. Williamson and his horrible grief, “this time” suggests it is a rare event. Mr. Williamson seems to be woefully out of touch with the decades-long horrendous black-on-black murder rate throughout the country.

I call it demonic convulsion.

It’s one and the same.

It’s most often caused by truth.

“The cops were keeping a lid on those areas of town that are so violent now, (sic) You asked for it, you got it.”

And, I doubt they’ll be able to get the lid back on without an almost military level of violence.

Especially if the Atlanta DA refuses to prosecute

"Atlanta Mayor Drops Reality Bomb: It’s Not Police Shooting up Communities, It’s Community Members"

How refreshing--and encouraging--for an elected official to speak the TRUTH--the unvarnished TRUTH--TRUTH for its own sake.

Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms deserves and shall receive the praise of all decent people everywhere and for all time for this--seemingly simple but in fact heroic--act!

Too bad the so-called journalists of the MSM and most public figures lack the intelligence--and decency--to follow her example!

I think she’s backpedaling because she knows the LEO that shot the drunk that took his tazer was justified and he’s probly planning to sue the city of Atlanta.

The media doesn’t recognize these deaths, too concerned with Confederate Flags at peaceful rallies.

Kayleigh: “I was asked probably 12 questions about the Confederate flag... I didn’t receive one question on the deaths in our country this weekend... I didn’t receive one question about five children who were killed.”

Think we’ll hear the mayor of Chicago admit this any time soon? I doubt it.

Black lives won’t truly matter until they love each other more than they hate white people.

Yes! Afterall, who ever calls a stabbing “knife violence”, or running someone down with a car “vehicle violence”!
Can you imagine the reaction of people if those items were be banned?

"During her small speech..."

Curious editorial description: was that an attempt to downplay or discredit her presentation?

There is virulent racism rivaling 1950's Jim Crow in the black community towards even lighter-skinned blacks let alone whites. It's hatred like I have never seen. Jim Crow whites rarely went into black communities looking to instigate trouble. Today it's commonplace for blacks to look to perpetrate violence on anyone not black. Leftists and militant gays trans people are using blacks as their stalking horse for their own mental illness. Just a greasy bowl of turds we need to flush.

I have a use for all the cruise lines... let's arrange a few million really unhappy racists blacks back to Africa. I'll GoFundMe that. Besides sports and some music, we'd probably have a net gain as a culture depopulating most black urban areas.

Only took her a month and a half to admit the blindingly obvious.

“We got to stop this. We are doing each other more harm than any police officer on this force. We’ve had over 75 shootings in the city over the past several weeks. You can’t blame that on APD.”

Who would have thought letting all the criminals run loose to loot and shoot all they wanted would come back to bite them? This hapless attempt to battle the success of President Trump by letting rabid left anarchists prey on American citizens at will didn’t seem to work as well as the dims and media thought it would.
Who could have predicted that? Almost 100 percent of Republican Governors and Mayors.
