How will they blame this on white people?
Around six years ago in Richmond...some black university student walked into some nightclub in the area, and just accidentally bumped into some gal...slightly spilling her drink. A confrontation occurred, and the university student was killed there in the club. My associate brought this up...he lived down in Richmond and drove daily up to the Pentagon to work.
His wife felt that Richmond was a safer place to raise a family than Fairfax or Arlington....which I questioned at the time.
The general problem in Richmond is a high level of illicit drug usage and general acceptance by majority of residents in the city.
Do we need to start killing more white people in order to make the statistics more “fair?” /sarc
Black culture is more violent for a number of reasons. Liberals and their egalitarian ideas centered on race envy, social programs that breed dependency, their war on the nuclear family, and their suppression of capitalism and economic growth pretty much ensure violence.
And way down in the last part of the article it finally states that only one of the black deaths involved a white killing a black. Hmmmmmm.
Of the 112 homicide suspects identified by police so far in last year’s regional killings, 102 are African-American, or 91 percent of the total. That’s up from 88 percent in 2015.
Whew lads, I thought they'd never get to the the "who is doing the killing " portion of the story. Btw, fwiw, Richmond is Tim Kaine's old stomping grounds.
An interesting contrast exists between rates of intra-race violence,” said criminologist William V. Pelfrey, an assistant professor at Virginia Commonwealth University’s L. Douglas Wilder School of Government and Public Affairs. “African-Americans are disproportionately represented — well beyond their population numbers....ok! NEXT!
It is beyond tragic what has happened to the black family and to black communities. What has happened to them, I would not wish on my worst enemy.
What is it? Is it the lack of fathers and stable families? Is it the culture? Is it in their DNA? What the hell is it?
This is universal among black communities across the entire USA. You can’t find a large black community where everybody is just married, highly educated, has stable families, is working, is getting ahead, is all solid middle class.
Racism doesn’t explain it. I know of countless black immigrants in the SF bay area from all manner of African nations who come to the USA and thrive, graduate college, are valued hard workers and managers, have stable families, and stockpile their net worth as they move up the middle class ranks.
What a tragedy. I have seen American blacks eat their own for 60 years now. When does this stop? How do we stop this tragedy? This is insane and it needs to end.
President Trump has promised to address the problems inner city blacks face. I pray to the Lord he makes some kind of advances here, but he can’t make very good inroads without black leaders in those cities calling out the people in them to do their part to raise and educate their children, and work hard at their jobs, and stop looking to easy fixes through crime.
Hate Bill Cosby all you want but at least he called out black people for being their own worst enemy and not lifting a finger to fix their plight.
So sad. So tragic. So unnecessary.
Virginia has become a blue state.
Are the cities in the region blue as well?
The irony is that Douglas Wilder is black and was elected Governor of Virginia serving from 1990 to 1994. The media fawned over him just like they did BHO. Descendant of slaves. Blah, blah, blah ...
Subsequently, he was Mayor of Richmond from 2005-2009.

Of interest.
So, what percent of the killers were African-Americans?
