Black Lives Matter... unless you're black and assassinate a black man in front of his 4-year old daughter. Will Al Sharpton speak at the funeral? Maybe New York should defund police so the victim never gets justice.

I can do this every fucking day, Methy. 7 black on black murders... EVERY FUCKING DAY. Does this man's life matter to you? Will Al Sharpton speak at his funeral? Will LeBron pay for the little girl's counseling? How about her college education?

How about you, Ebola? Does this man's life matter to you? I'll bet it mattered to the 6-year old daughter that watched him die. You think Kevin Hart will send her family some money? Will the NBA wear HER name on their jerseys? Should we defund the police? I wonder if the black man on the bicycle, who witnessed the entire thing, will offer up a description of the shooter... that's unknown at THIS time. Shocking, right?

In the south, people were blaming their financial problems on the newly freed slaves that lived around them. Lynchings were becoming a popular way of resolving some of the anger that whites had in relation to the free blacks.

History of Lynching in America
White Americans used lynching to terrorize and control Black people in the 19th and early 20th centuries. NAACP led a courageous battle against lynching.

Reform indeed...
NEW YORK (AP) — Still reeling from the coronavirus pandemic and street protests over the police killing of George Floyd, exhausted cities around the nation are facing yet another challenge: a surge in shootings that has left dozens dead, including young children.
The spike defies easy explanation, experts say, pointing to the toxic mix of issues facing America in 2020: an unemployment rate not seen in a generation, a pandemic that has killed more than 130,000 people, stay-at-home orders, rising anger over police brutality, intense stress, even the weather.
“I think it’s just a perfect storm of distress in America,” said Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms after a weekend of bloodshed in her city.
Jerry Ratcliffe, a Temple University criminal justice professor and host of the “Reducing Crime” podcast, put it more bluntly: “Anybody who thinks they can disentangle all of this probably doesn’t know what they’re talking about.”
President Donald Trump has seized on the violence for political gain, accusing Democrats of being weak and suggesting the crime wave is being driven by recent protests calling for racial justice, police reform and drastic cuts in law enforcement funding.
“Law and order are the building blocks of the American dream, but if anarchy prevails, this dream comes crumbling down,” White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany said last week.
Police officials in New York City and elsewhere say the recent bloodshed has shown there are consequences to some reforms they see as misguided, particularly on bail reform, enacted before the protests happened but exacerbated by the moment.
Emboldened criminals feel “that the cops can’t do anything anymore, that no one likes the police, that they can get away with things, that it’s safe to carry a gun out on the street,” New York Police Department Chief Terence Monahan said this week.
Monahan’s remarks came after a holiday weekend that saw a wave of shootings leaving 10 dead. Through Sunday, shootings were up more than 53% — to 585 — so far this year.
The recent spasm of violence was captured in a New York Post headline about a crime-ravaged city crying out for help. It was nearly identical to one that ran 30 years ago — when there were more than 2,000 murders a year. But crime has been declining for more than a decade — there were about 300 last year.
Crime has spiked in other major cities, too. In Dallas, violent crime increased more than 14% from April to June. In Philadelphia, homicides were up 20% for the week ending July 5 over last year at this time. In Atlanta, 31 people were shot over the weekend, five fatally, compared with seven shootings and one killing over the same week in 2019.
Some police unions say officers just aren’t doing their jobs over fear of being charged with crime.
Bottoms, a Democrat, lashed out after an 8-year-old girl was shot and killed near the Atlanta Wendy’s restaurant where Rayshard Brooks died three weeks earlier in a confrontation with police who were later charged criminally.
“That’s an important movement that’s happening,” she said at a news conference. “But this random, wild, wild West shoot ’em up because you can has got to stop.”

The people are restless, angry, in need of leadership. There is a huge void at the top of government right now. One idiot with a group of sycophants terrified to upset the wannabe king. We need a national plan. I guess we will have to wait until January 2021 for Biden to clean up the mess like Democrats always do. Economies always do better with a Democrat in the White House, it's a proven fact.Reform indeed...

Thank you, Mr. President. You did it! Between this and your handling of the pandemic, you should be re-elected.
“The crime and violence that today afflicts our nation will soon — and I mean very soon — come to an end,” Trump says. “Beginning on January 20th of 2017, safety will be restored.”

Really? Because we had a record economy and record employment with Trump in the White House.
Hey, dipshit, if you want Biden in the White House... you'd better tell him to call off his Senate campaign. He's applying for the wrong job.

Remember when the racist "stop and frisk" of blacks brought ALL KINDS of crime numbers down in New York?

States and cities run their own police departments.
If there is a rise in crime in a city, the onus is on the leadership in that particular city.
It is not the Feds job to take over policing issues.
These cities with these issues are all self inflicted. Most of the worst cities related to crime, etc have been run by Dems for decades.

So passing the buck is a republican tradition or just a trump thing? I meant overall, covid, civil unrest, economy, schools opening, etc. A plan, a national one something to build from. trump is attempting to ignore it all and hope it all goes away. He is declaring victory when things are getting worse. Much of it his fault as governors in Florida, Texas, Arizona, Georgia and South Carolina aim to please trump not do what's best for their people. The rant by the law Vegas mayor comes to mind, "JUST OPEN! Im not responsible for how to do it safely. JUST OPEN!!!!" The feds have the resources, the CDC, the research assets to set policy, yet they aren't. They did in the past and we got through things in a much better and safer way. Why do we pay federal taxes if they won't help in a time of need?
