Where's the outrage over black-on-black killings?

Wickham is a flaming lib, so I don't usually have any use for his columns, but this time he's right on target. How incredible and outrageous that so many blacks are murdered by blacks without a peep from the great "leaders" who can only decry racism at every turn..... white racism has very little if anything to do the criminal pathologies of the contemporary black communities.... unless you count the racism of white liberals who refuse to uphold standards and laws because it would be "insensitive" or "oppressive" to minorities.

Racist.

I hope you are being sarcastic??

I hope you are being sarcastic??

Of course. But that one little word has driven all reason from the debate. As in all liberal causes, truth and reason are irrelevant.

Black on black crime is so "dog bites man" that it doesn't warrant a lot of attention.

The author fails to understand the stark realities of urban life that can cause a person to spay bullets in a drive-by at a strecth hummer by de club. (sarcasm)

Black on black crimes do not pay the bills for the race pimps. There is no financial gain in solving these problems. If you happen to be white and care about black on black crime you are accused of being a racist yourself or using the race of others to try and make some kind of gain. Whites caring about black on black crime does not fit in with the black racial stereotype so it is mocked or discounted.

Blacks will go on killing blacks and while it is a terrible tragedy, it is one that those very blacks who are dying have made it clear is NOT a white problem.

We just need to continue to pay for their government programs that help to create and maintain the cycle of violent behavior.

A great deal of the B/B killing is in cities with black mayors. They are beyond criticism. As descendants of ancestral slaves that came to America centuries ago, they are beyond reproach.

Chris Rock is racist, too. He even says so in that video about [racially offensive term redacted for your safety].

[socialismisinsidious]

Of course that is it exactly b/c "you don't know what they have been through" /s

And then when someone makes good of themselves and survives the war-zone they grew up in the "leaders" want them to "give-back" to the community that tried to murder them (Give-back = handouts to Sharpton, Jackson, et al.)

[johnny7]

The elite, socialist media obviously believes that it's their... 'nature'.

[llevrok]

There are a few political things that do not make sense to me. Most of these are on culteral or race lines.

For example -
Who liberated the slaves and pushed the Civil Rights Act? Hint: Not the Dems.
If blacks are so comfortable with their progress, why do they continue to largely vote DIM?
Why are American Jews largely liberal when the DIM's support Palestine and back stab Israel?

In their worldview, the black on black violence is all the result of whitie holding the black man down.

"And then when someone makes good of themselves and survives the war-zone they grew up in the "leaders" want them to "give-back" to the community that tried to murder them (Give-back = handouts to Sharpton, Jackson, et al.)"

Actually when they do make it out of the inner city, they are labeled as Uncle Tom's or Republican lap dogs. To think that some prefer their children grow up to be like Al Sharpton rather than Colin Powell never ceases to amaze me.

[Old Professer]

In many cases, they are just eliminating the competition.

[cquiggy]

Blacks are not killing Blacks. Guns are killing blacks. Don't you know its the guns that are killing. Bad bad guns. Like those automatic weapons depicted in the left wing news reports every night. You know the same automatic weapons that don't exist.

[AbeKrieger]

Lyndon Johnson and the Great Society, hard at work in the black community.

There is a fine old Norwegian word that works very nicely here. Its root in ON is hnoggr (the 'o' is Oslash) and it means niggardly. The noun form is niggard. Use it as they vote, early and often.

Either we are equal or we are not. Good people ought to be armed where they will, with wits and guns. NRA KMA

Black on black shootings? When a white shoots a white do I ever see the killing described that way?

People raised without a two parent family are more likely to become criminals. 70% of black children are bastards, therefore more criminals. It is easy to understand. Liberals know no logic.
