I am not interested in details of this story. What I am really interested in is why THOUSANDS of young black men are murdered EVERY year by other black people. Why Sharpton & co. never makes that a big issue. Magnitude of anything happening is more important to me than a single incident.

Even more concern to me is why US has a much bigger murder rate than other G-20 countries.

Because there's no money in it.

An even bigger story to me is why the African-American murder rate is LESS THAN the murder rate of every African country, and of every other country with a majority African origin country.

Ethnic group by ethnic group, Americans have lower murder rates than their cousins back in the old homeland, and lifespans equal to or greater than those same cousins.

I say that just in case you thought this country wasn't the greatest place on Earth.
