Nice steaming pile of . . . trying to make it sound like whites run around all the time killing blacks. Not even the “gangsta” rappers can make any such valid claim, nor do they try.

If it’s not black-on-black in Chicago then what is it?

Nor are African-Americans especially criminal... I guess the author has a different definition of "especially" than most. To most people, the observation that about 12% of the population is responsible for around half of the violent felonies committed in America would qualify as "especially."
To: NotYourAverageDhimmi
...Martins cause had less to do with the identity of the shooter and everything to do with the appalling disinterest of the local police department.)The author is a liar. Just another propagandist. The Sanford PD submitted their report to the DA and the DA found no cause to indict.

Wow. this idiot completely ignores that the RATES for black-on-black crime are 8X higher than white-on-white crime. Yes the vast majority of crime is intraracial. But the rates are hugely disproportionate given the percentage of population.
Does it make ANY sense that there are more black males killed than white males given the population disparity? It's not "proximity" as the author says. It's cultural.

Young black males are 1% of the population and responsible for 27% of homicides.

Along with the plethora of others like him.
He should probably walk Chicago’s streets and see if black-on-black crime is really a “myth”. Hope he can escape to tell about it.

Darryl Green, an aspiring decent kid, is murdered for refusing to join a gang. Trayvon Martin, an aspiring thug, is shot in self-defense for sucker-punching, breaking the nose and pounding a man's head into the pavement.
Both are about the same age and exactly the same race.
Guess which one gets all the attention from the racial grievance industry.

The author is trying to make some weird point that when blacks kill other blacks it is not really black-on-black crime because . . . because why?
