Democrat Party’s Crime Spike Disproportionately Killing Black Lives
Breitbart ^ | 12=3=2021 | John Nolte

Posted on 12/03/2021 1:09:03 PM PST by blam

The sudden rise in violent crime disproportionately hits black and Hispanic Americans, which is a surprise to no one who lives anywhere close to the real world.

The statistic gathered in this City Journal piece are staggering, heartbreaking, and predictable:

According to CDC data released last month, 2020 bore witness to the largest rate of increase in homicides recorded in modern history—a finding that tracks with FBI data. Murder rose 29 percent from 2019 to 2020, surpassing the previous record 12.7 percent spike from 1967 to 1968. Unsurprisingly, the victims of the latest surge in violence were not equally distributed across racial groups. The rise in black homicide victims from 2019 to 2020 was almost twice as big as the rise in white victims (28 percent versus 16 percent).

A new Marshall Project analysis on last year’s homicide wave in major American cities highlights the striking racial disparity: more than 85 percent of the increase in murders occurred in black and Hispanic neighborhoods, where homicide rates were already higher than in white neighborhoods. In Chicago, for example, black neighborhoods saw a rise of 27 murders per 100,000 residents, whereas white neighborhoods saw a rise of only two per 100,000.

The Marshall Project looked at the American cities hit hardest by this violent crime wave, and guess which political party is in charge of every single one of those cities? Yep…
•Atlanta: Democrat mayors since — not a typo — 1877.
•Baltimore: Democrat mayors since 1971.
•Chicago: Democrat mayors since 1931.
•Washington, DC: Democrat mayors since 1961.

Black lives don’t matter to democrats. Even to some black democrats. All that matters is running on black ‘issues’

Fear is something that can be exploited for political advantage by the left. They can blame it on Wyte Peepol and inflame their base.

Throw a white cop into the mix, then maybe it might matter

Black lives are being taken by other Blacks, all according to the Democrats plan.

Keep a group that is historically violent on edge, then manufacture an “incident” point these people in the direction you want them to go, then sit back and admire your work.

Sick people.

And, of course, black Americans are taking the brunt of it.

The overwhelming majority of violent crimes and murders among blacks are committed by blacks. Blacks have always had the power in their hands to clean up their own neighborhoods, but for the most part, they don't. So...shrug...

The great unspoken truth is that 3% of the population, that being black males between 17-44, commit over 50% of the homicides in this country.

1-Liberals will never acknowledge the problem.

2-Liberals will blame "racists" if somebody suggests there is a problem.

3-Liberals have no incentive to acknowledge the problem.

This is about that Revolution, not the security or prosperity of anyone. In fact people being secure and prosperous hampers the Revolution.

Marxists are Marxists, whatever other facts there may seem to be about them give way to that fact.

Incidentally, this is what should be the way Christians are … so it’s not like I’m saying that what is wrong is that people subordinate some things below others, and maintain an observed hierarchy.

Marxism is inherently bad, it is evil. It is a false gospel and the ultimate opiate of both the masses and pointy headed elites, for it offered a claim of a Socially transformative zeal in place of salvation, one that demands none of that messy repentance guff and which allows people to be the vilest versions of themselves even as they claim they’re marching towards their goal.

Proof of the diabolical power of racist white supremacist mind control.

I know but most people don't know how you go to 3%.

The Europeans used to complain about how violent Americans are...take out that 3% and we're less violent than they are.
