These black lives didn’t seem to matter in 2020

Last year saw the largest year-to-year increase in homicides ever recorded in US history. The homicide rate in 34 cities was 30 percent higher in 2020 compared to the previous year, according to a Jan. 31 report by the National Commission on COVID-19 and Criminal Justice.

Victims of these homicides are disproportionately African American. At least 8,600 black lives were lost to homicide in 2020, an increase of more than 1,000 compared to 2019 (7,484). Violent crime is concentrated in primarily low-income, marginalized black communities where the police are underresourced and Democratic leadership has abysmally failed. In Chicago, 80 percent of gun-violence victims in 2020 were black. According to the latest data in New York City, 71 percent of shooting victims are black — even though black people constitute just 26 percent of the city’s population. The tragic reality is one black life was killed less than every hour in America last year.

87% voted for Biden. They were getting what they wanted and they went back for more.

Everytime I see.a black youth or even elderly man with Jordan shoes and some NfL sport suit, it cringes african acculturated schizophrenia. They would be considered freaks of freaks in Africa and undergo some serious initiation rites into adulthood.

The black man is a catastrophe in America. They scream black lives matter but do not see how white liberals dressed them up in their infantiled schizo slave mentality suits and ghetto “culture”. It is like they are walking with a tag on their face saying: indeed I am beyond hope as a child-man of white man, pre-tag me out to the camps.

Then again plenty of whites join them too,

Schizophrenia is what kills most black people for a pair of Jordan shoes...

The media scream about the need for black people to be protected by all kinds of diseases and their lack of access to care, but never schizophrenia is mentioned because schizophrenia is what makes the NFL money when flat football made up adult kid drama occurs.
