Is he going to go into the ghetto, and urge the brothers to stop the drive by shootings? Will he decry the ghetto culture, in which all slights, real and imagined, are dealt with by violence? Is he going to take on the youth gangs in any way, or would that be considered racist?

It is good that he plans to bring about more sensible forms of violence.

You know, ending “senseless gun violence” is a great idea.

Proposal #1: Loosen all restrictions on purchasing guns for law-abiding citizens.

Proposal #2: Teach firearms safety courses for all ages in public schools.

Proposal #3: Loosen restrictions on concealed carry permits.

Guarantee crime rates would plummet overnight.
