--the Craptimes discovers what anybody who can read any number of sources already knows---black men kill each other at rates far exceeding any other group--then sort of tries to blame Wisconsin's concealed carry law--

African Americans increasingly targeted by African Americans

Madison: 35 square miles surrounded by reality.

Homocides? No post birth abortions.

What’s the problem?

[Ancient Man]

AA’s are responsible for 60.1% of all homicides in the US, but are only 12.6% of the population. Black males 14-35) represent <5% of the population, but commit the vast majority of the homicides. Evidently, the author never watches “The First 48.”

I believe I read a while back that if one removes black gun crime from US stats, we drop down do somewhere around 50th from the top in percentage of gun crimes. I’m sure my numbers or off, but I’m thinking not by much.

[Federal46]

Another statistic the paper doesn’t mention is the percentage of the shooters who had felony convictions and we’re illegally in possession of the gun begin with.

Maybe, if just somehow, we could teach the 5% of the population could be taught to quit being feral animals, it might lower the murder rate. Personally, I pretty much quit caring. If they want to kill each other, just less blm types in the world to deal with.

“While the concealed carry law was billed by its Republican backers as a public safety measure, a study from the National Bureau of Economic Research suggests that right-to-carry laws lead to increases in violent crime by 13 percent to 15 percent within a decade of their adoption.” I have no doubt that Professor Lott could easily take apart this ridiculous assertion (and probably others in the article) and show it to be completely unfounded. Using that logic, Vermont must have always been a very violent place in which to live and that Texas (after passing such legislation in the mid 1990s) must have become even that more violent (even though it’s murder rate went down to levels not seen since the late 1950s).

Also, a few months ago, a friend on FB shared an article that discussed the Milwaukee Chief of Police comments on gun control and how he personally disliked Wisconsin’s concealed carry law. I replied back, saying such a source and their comments on gun control are rather suspect, given the Milwaukee police department’s not particularly proud history concerning the Bambi Bembenek affair and also what was revealed during the investigation of Jeffrey Dahmer’s serial butchering of young men.

The official FBI stats that I saw a couple of years ago show,among other things,that blacks are homicide victims about as often as are whites despite being only 15% of the population while whites are about 70%.The stats also show that blacks are almost always killed by other blacks and that whites killing blacks is very,*very* rare.

So maybe black folks should get together and decide not to kill EACH OTHER!

[Wuli]

The true disparity, in some urban areas, is unfortunately the numbers of “black” men getting shot by “black” men and how those numbers far exceed the portion of “blacks” in the general population. Yes, we have to say it: black on black crime is a major fact, and blaming it as some sort disparity with sources unknown and not understood is just a pretense avoiding the facts.

Jordan Sharlow allegedly fired several bullets into the 31-year-old father of three at an east Madison gas station, reportedly confusing him with Riccardo Simms

Is this because they all look alike?

[umgud]

Blacks are the single largest group of murder victims, Latinos (who are grouped with whites, for statistical purposes) are the 2nd largest victim group.

Could these be culturally or drug related? Or is the fault of white men, after all their company’s make these guns that discriminate against blacks. You know guns are sentient beings who discriminate by race.

[Titus-Maximus]

Every month you have a Lakeland Florida death toll in Chicago, and never a sound from the media about the Democrat plantation owners.
They could care less.

[I want the USA back]

That’s 60 percent of the gun deaths in a city where blacks comprise just 7 percent of the population.
That seems to be saying that those evil Whites are killing Blacks.
In those two years, not a single white man in Madison was killed by gunfire.That's saying that they wish more Whites would be murdered.

I read the article, and nowhere did it say the truth: BLACKS COMMIT 8.5 TIMES MORE CRIME than Whites, according to the population numbers. BLACKS are killing THE BLACKS!!!!! Not Whitey!!!!!

[cranked]

ElbowIdiot would have been better off seriously writing a piece on increased black-on-black crime......
