In the absence of police participation- robberies, shootings and homicides have soared in these cities and other similar cities
BLM and Liberal Press Bashing of American Cops Lead to Greater Gun Violence
Mitch Wolfe October 4, 2017
The latest FBI report on gun violence in American cities, especially in specific liberal Democratic-controlled cities- discloses a very inconvenient truth. The relentless bashing and public criticism of urban cops by the activist BLM (Black Lives Matter), the liberal press+ liberal civic leaders have had the unintended consequence of producing a huge increase in black on black killings in certain visible minority cities.
To be specific, we are talking Chicago, Baltimore, St. Louis, Charlotte and Milwaukee.
Yes, folks, Chicago where former Democratic President Barack Obama, then a Harvard Law grad/community organizer cut his political teeth. The very same Chicago is run by long-time Democrat Mayor Rahm Emanuel, former chief of staff to Obama.
In 2016, Chicago, aka Americas Murder Capital, was home to a shocking 765 murders. A jump of over 86% from 411 murders in 2014. In 2015 there were more than 2300 shootings resulting in 478 murders.
The majority of these murders are gun-related. The majority of the victims are black people being shot by not out of control gun-happy white police, but other black people.
Ironically, both the state of Illinois and the city of Chicago are highly regulated gun control jurisdictions.
Clearly, the experience of Chicago undermines the conventional liberal Democratic argument that tighter gun control leads to fewer gun-related deaths.
Instead Chicago demonstrates all too clearly, that guns in themselves dont kill people, but instead black dudes packing illegal heat kill people, mostly other black people.
But Chicago is no anomaly. No aberration.
In each of Democratic Baltimore, St. Louis, Charlotte and Milwaukee, homicides increased dramatically from 2014-2016.

At a news conference on Chicago Marathon security held in the wake of Sunday's massacre in Las Vegas, Mayor Rahm Emanuel slammed White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders for deflecting a question about gun control by citing Chicago's shooting toll. "I really do wish once in this administration they'd take responsibility and accountability for something," Emanuel said. He said lax laws allow anyone to buy a gun outside the city and bring it in. | Mitch Dudek/Sun-Times
I’ll make a proposal: Let BLMer’s form their own entire city, government, police and all. Let’s see how viable that hellhole is.
We’ll call it “Chicago.”
The problem solves itself.
They complain about the occasional police shooting but all I hear is crickets about blacks killing other blacks.
I guess blacks don’t care if other blacks kill each other off.
What a stinking blame-shifter.
They don’t need to form one. They already have one.
I mean 100% population only. I’d give it a lifespan of one week.
Only a liberal would be surprised by these results.
It used to be called, “biting the hand that feeds you” - before such phrases became passe.
The majority of these murders are gun-related. The majority of the victims are black people being shot by not out of control gun-happy white police, but other black people.
Unfortunately my White Privilege prevents me from giving a damn. Just keep shooting each other, nobody cares.

Emanuel gives deposition in security lawsuit Lolly BoweanContact ReporterChicago Tribune June 22, 2016
Mayor Rahm Emanuel was questioned for about half an hour Wednesday afternoon on how he decided which Chicago police officers would work as his private security bodyguards.
But although Emanuel sat for questions in the legal offices on the sixth floor of City Hall, he did not reveal much about the hiring practices of his office, attorneys involved with the deposition said afterward.
"He really didn't know much at all about the details," said attorney Edward Fox. "It went about as we expected." Officer testifies Emanuel security detail wasn't political post
Fox and his team of attorneys are representing four Chicago police officers who are suing the city saying they were removed from their security posts for political reasons. The officers say they lost their lucrative and prestigious positions as security specialists and were replaced by officers who volunteered for Emanuel's first campaign in 2011. Political hiring is a violation of the Shakman decree.
