In 2012, Allegheny County tallied 97 homicide victims. Of that, 73 were black men and boys and another six were black women.
They don't say how many of the killers were black, but then they don't have to say. The whole article is about the fecklessness and sorrow of the black underclass. It's not the guns that killed those boys. If there were no guns in the world at all, someone would have stabbed them or beat them over the head - perhaps they'd have survived those attacks, perhaps not.
When my Dad, soon to be 82 God Bless him, was a boy in Chester, Pa., he knew a black guy who was stabbed through the ear with a screwdriver. Yes, you’re right, if it wasn’t guns, it would be some other weapon.
