I know this article is almost a week old, but I am posting here in the event it was missed. It is an important article that sums up a good deal about how I feel as a black female residing in inner-city America. The real source of the problems in the black community is not racism, but the broken home which leads to a broken and disorganized community.
Please read E.W. Jackson's article, and, if possible, please pass it on, because it is irrefutably true.
Thanks, BlackFemaleConservative

Honest serious question.
How do we change the culture that gives us 75% of black mothers without a father supporting the household? Or helping raise the children.
The number may not be quite that high, but almost.
And it is no longer just a black issue.

This kind of crime is tribal.
It’s a part of the culture I will never understand.

They don’t just ignore black on black crime. They ignore black on anyone crime.
However, when they are talking about crime victims, you would think that whites are committing all the crime.

The real source of the problems in the black community is not racism, but the broken home which leads to a broken and disorganized community. Ala Moynihan. They villified him for telling the truth. Ironically, during the twenty years before the Civil Rights act. the wealth of the black community increased more than any comparable period in US history. The downside was that the one's growing up didn't realized this and blamed their parents for no providing as much as white parents did for their kids. Instead of using the chance to go to work, they depended on politicians to get things for them.

decent analysis, but they give Derrion Albert too much credit .
What was he doing there ?
They can't say he was walking home from school.
School and home was in the opposite direction.
Here's the guts of it...
“Walker said his grandson asked if he could hang out with some friends Thursday after school. Walker said OK, but insisted Derrion be back by 7 p.m.”

Frankly, I'm not surprised.
Sadly, as the author pointed out in his column, this isn't the sort of thing that draws Race Hustlers like Rev. Jesse Jackson, Rev. Al Sharpton, Rep. Maxine Waters, or Rep. Diane Watson to the cameras or microphones, since it isn't profitable, or divisive enough.
Rather than address the horrors of high crime rates in the Inner Cities, local, state, and nationally elected Democrat officials like to blame the more affluent and safer White communities for their problems; not only would intact families be part of the solution to these problems, but the right of law abiding citizens to keep and bear arms. On another post, a FReeper enlightened me to the fact that gun control laws passed by people like Senator Diane Feinstein and others have also been a factor in the countless deaths of Blacks and other non-Whites in inner cities.
...And by the way, I have just book marked your blog to my favorites. Welcome Aboard!

Thank you for recognizing that and speaking up. THAT IS the problem in the Black community. I remember the day before the GOVERNMENT started REWARDING people to destroy their family structure.
There were black families with mothers, fathers and grandparents who cared about their children. There WAS a FAMILY STRUCTURE. It all ended with GOVERNMENT DEPENDENCE.

As a conservative, black-on-black crime is just crime. It should be “addressed” by all honest people.

It always has. For every black person murdered by a white person, there are about five whites murdered by blacks and 20 to 25 blacks murdered by blacks.

I know this is a struggle and the MSM will not listen but keep pounding away. You are completely correct in your analysis and many blacks agree with you but are afraid to speak out for fear of being called Uncle Tom. I know at least two and they have said that there is pressure upon them in black community to NOT tell the truth.
Don't let the LEFT deter you. It will be tough and they will attack you viciously and call you every name in the book. Don't let them intimidate you. Good Luck.

Treating poor black people as victims to be "organized" has been an abject failure. From the standpoint of Democrat strategists, the policy has been an absolutely spectacular success.
