I live in a downscale suburb about a mile north of the Baltimore City line. Most of my neighbors are blacks who have moved in during the past decade. All of them came from low-rent city rowhouses or apartments. I know because I check the land records on-line. There have been no murders or shootings in my hood for the thirteen years we’ve been here. Now I also check names of city shooting perps and victims via Maryland Judiciary Case Search dot org. As soon as names are published, I usually check them out and 90% or more of the victims are black and 99% have records for drug possession, armed robbery, aggravated assault, handgun violations, parole violations etc. The suspects run about 100% record-wise. Another interesting stat to me, at least, is that about 80% of the shooters and shootees have paternity and child support cases. The bottom line is that most of the killings are of those who are just like the killers. Actually, a net gain for the law-abiding amongst us. The bonus is that the dead will no longer be able to breed.
vicious circle....
not that its right, but what can we do?..they refuse to act civilized..
the major problem is when their violence impacts peaceful, law abiding people......
