HBO host Bill Maher on Friday said Chicago Mayor-elect Brandon Johnson was "excusing horrific behavior" in a speech he delivered following several shootings in Chicagoland last week and questioned why black celebrities with large fanbases do not have opinions on these issues.
"Most of the shootings [in Chicago] are young black men killing other young black men. Is that not correct?" Maher asked.
"Yeah that's correct," guest Glenn Loury responded.

Some things must be phrased as a question, lest you be cancelled.
Guess he can ask the question and make the point because he’s a lefty?
Will the retarded left pay any attention?
snitches get stitches.....it would be accountability in the black community....it would dismantle the suppression agrument...
If Maher keeps on talking sensibly, he’s going to get himself cancelled.
Remember, Bill. During the French Revolution it was hero one day, victim of the guillotine the next.
Is it my imagination or has Bill,in recent times,been getting it right with some regularity?
Because they all live in safe neighborhoods and don’t want to tell their neighbors that African-Americans have high crime rates.
The left doesn’t have to ask questions because they already know the answer, it’s racism.
Because “Black Lives Matter” is nothing more than a political jingle to them. They’ll still kill one another over a pair of Nikes.
Wow! Heresy! Good for him.
Scary isn’t it? I hope it isn’t a trap. I’ve been agreeing with him a lot lately too.
What the heck has gotten into this guy? He just noticed? Hey Bill, as long as they are killing their own, it is okay. But by golly if a white kills a black, all hell breaks loose.
I guess there is a little hope for this fella. Maybe, or maybe not.
Because that would only distract from the fake narrative that white people are their oppressors.
Bill, why are you asking us? Shouldn’t you be interviewing them on your show?
For the same reason I don’t often mention things like how Iran treats women or China treats Uyghur Muslims. I’m certainly aware of it, but it doesn’t affect me personally. It’s not something I can do anything about. It’s not something me talking about would change. It’s the same as if I would complain about the weather.
Most of the blacks who have made it in society have moved far away from the blacks who commit the murders. (The exception being rappers who like fish swimming in the Ocean of badass blackdom.) They’ve done this because they know there’s nothing they can do. Their voice would be like speaking softly in a tornado. Also, it’s likely they’d be called names like Uncle Tom or worse. It’s not their fight and they really don’t care.
Incidentally, isn’t thinking that someone ought to do something based solely on their skin color just a bit racist? (Asking for a friend.)
'Cuz they know.
What we are not apparent!y not allowed to notice anymore is that seventy per cent of black children are born to single mothers. Any suggestions about who their male role models are?
It’s not just murder it is ALL CRIME! blacks are the most likely victims of ALL CRIME.
