"One study counted 286,075 firearm deaths among black people from 1990 to 2021. That’s over a quarter of a million deaths. Some of them are due to suicide, but suicides are much lower among black people than white people, and the majority of black gun deaths were homicides." The only thing missing is how many of these black deaths were from other black folks? Meanwhile, anyone who thinks leftists care about minorities rather than just using them to achieve their own goals needs to wake up and face reality.

Wrong. BLACK Criminals killed 250k+blacks. Until they can clean up their mess black lives will never matter. Scott Adams is right. They have to correct themeselves. Trillions of dollars and decades of patting on the head by .gov has ruined black Americans. Today’s Africans come here and just shake their head at American blacks’ antics.

“The only thing missing is how many of these black deaths were from other black folks?”

The vast majority of Black murders are committed buy Black perps (95%+).

Why not just blame the black people that killed them? Blaming their murders on “crime” and guns is pretty friggin’ retarded.

And 99% of those killed were killed by fellow blacks...0.5% were killed by whites and 0.5% were killed by cops.

From the article:
...A Pew survey found that while only 33% of white Democrats wanted to reduce crime...

Why would anyone be against reducing crime?!

Compliant blacks are the pillar of democrat party power and leftist control. They are the justification for every power-grab and social-engineering scheme the left has.

Nothing else matters, certainly not the “body count.”

I wonder when blacks will ever figure this out.

I'm not sure what the point of this piece is...

It uses massaged data from a kaiser family foundation article that pushes for gun control, that says more blacks are victims of gun crimes than other ethnicitis, and says not enough attention is being paid to blacks killed by crime?

Sorry, but blacks are generally the ones that call for defunding the police, and more restrictions on law enforcement activities, because they perceive their race gets arrested the most.

Then, when innocent (not involved in criminal activity) blacks are actual victims of guns, they are the ones that call for gun bans, to "get guns off the street'.

Blacks won't address crime happening within their communities. Yet, they want to ban guns, which would allow others to defend themselves against crime.

When they don't want to focus on the problem, which occurs in less than 3% of the whole U.S. population, but do want to disarm everybody, no amount of interventions from outside the black community are going to matter.

And I'm not going to disarm myself so criminals are safer.

The vast majority of the deaths are at the hands of other black people. I never understand why they’re all out there cheering on black thugs and demanding no charges, etc. when they or their children could easily be the next victims.

I realize the people and institutions manipulating black people…such as Al Sharpton, BLM honchos (who have gotten very rich off it), the Dem Party, et al. …don’t care. And being products of our fine public schools, many younger black people are functionally illiterate and get their information only through TikTok videos.

Blacks killing other blacks is not news. Happens all over the world.
