Maybe it is best to only comment about issues you know something about. The Bureau of Justice Statistics, reveals that approximately 8,000 — and, in certain years, as many as 9,000 African Americans are murdered annually in the United States. This chilling figure is accompanied by another equally sobering fact, that 93% of these murders are in fact perpetrated by other blacks. The analysis, supported by FBI records, finds that in 2005 alone, for example, African Americans accounted for 49% of all homicide victims in the US — again, almost exclusively at the hands of other African Americans. In 2008 and 2009, gun homicide was the leading cause of death among black teens. Young black males die from gun violence at a rate 2.5 times higher than Latino males, and eight times higher than white males. Gun injuries are suffered by black teens at a rate ten times higher than white teens. Black victims of gun violence far out number white victims, there is a crime epidemic in the black community. http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2012/04/09/race-wars-part-1-the-shocking-data-on-black-on-black-crime/ |

I'm glad you had the patience to look those numbers up. I mean really, who's naive enough to think otherwise? |

That, it seems to be... But what is the solution? Gun control? |

There is no solution. You can't change a thug's perspective on life |

The Patroit Act can be used to throw gang bangers in prison and hold them for several years without a trail. They can be sent to CIA Black Sites outside of the United States. |

Hopefully some of the uncivilized will empower themselves to become civilized. |

Malcolm X was a clear example of someone uncivilized becoming civilized. Like many, he educated himself while in prison. You should get out more....or simply read more. |
