You get video and witnessess and hunt down the cars and perps and arrest and try them
But that's if black lives actually matter.
Or you could be rmrd and complain that police can't do anything about it the <SHRUG so who cares homicide is the #1 cause death of young black males BUT how about that Tuskegee thing?>
with video cams allover the fucking place in a big city more detectives and tougher prosecutors wouldn't make a dent in the gun homicide rate? RIGHT! and there's a bridge we might want to sell you too
Maybe he'd just like to see them all kill each other like I saw some internet wag claim may be Mayor Lightfoot's ultimate goal. Then he could go back to hating whypipple
Please read Abt’s research. Pretending that homicide is not the #1 cause of death for young Black men isn’t helping anybody. Black citizens want law enforcement to help end the cycle of gun violence that disproportionately kills their children. https://t.co/K5jcMfsEcD
A few years ago I would have considered this right-wing hyperbole. Fringe left voices were good to have in public debate, even if not in power. These voices are now in power. In 2021 this is a legitimate and accurate critique of current criminal justice policies in New York City. https://t.co/uCMEsj7DrT
It’s an article of faith among New York City’s progressive leadership that punishment does not deter crime and that putting criminals in jail is at least as evil as whatever they did to get there. From this perspective, sending someone to jail is the worst thing that society can do: it not only destroys the life of the perpetrator but also creates a false sense of accomplishment, while ignoring the socioeconomic “root causes” of crime....
The latest twist on the premise that jail is worse than crime is the notion that calling the police is itself a form of violence. Since, on this view, the police routinely commit brutality against black people, and interactions with police frequently result in the death of black men, it is unconscionable to call the police in most situations, especially when it may involve entwining a black life with law enforcement. In fact, it may be tantamount to ordering a black person’s execution. Alvin Bragg, the likely new Manhattan district attorney—who opposes jail time for people convicted of “violent felonies” (his quotation marks)—cautions that calling the police on black people risks “the police shooting of another black man.”
To minimize police intervention, advocates have called for treating violent crime involving guns as a public-health issue, akin to the campaign against smoking that reduced cigarette usage and the incidence of lung cancer. Mary Bassett, former NYC health commissioner, demanded “community-based interventions” to deal with shootings, employing “the use of ‘credible messengers’ and community mobilization techniques that aim to mediate conflicts between individuals and groups and prevent retaliatory violence before it occurs.”
Et Tu, Eric?
At the same time, Brooklyn borough president Eric Adams, the Democratic mayoral nominee, urged Brooklynites bothered by illegal fireworks not to call the police. “We have left the place of 911 being the response for everything in our city,” he said last year, instead insisting that residents should “go talk to the young people or the people on your block who are using fireworks” and ask them to stop. One woman who took his advice was murdered for her trouble.
all the many stories along the lines of "5 shot, 1 killed" often there is one about the grieving over the lost one, but very few have follow-ups of what life is for the other 4. It ain't always pretty but we are going to ignore it until like 10 years down the road when the number of inner city handicapped become OVERWHELMING, far more men in nursing homes and/or disabled care than in prison:
[.....] In May 2020, random gunfire left Glass with five bullet wounds, bedridden and on a ventilator. It was his 23rd birthday. He’d been on the way to the gas station that morning for a quick errand.
“Our lives have changed ever since that moment,” said Hall.
15 months later, Glass is in recovery at a nursing home called Warren Barr South Loop.
“He’s moving limbs now. He smiles. He knows my voice,” said Hall, who adds that her son is finally starting to breathe on his own for a bit.
Yet she worries Glass’s progress is being stalled [....]
welcome to the wonderful world of U.S. nursing homes, they ain't just for old people or even just inner city people, they are virtually all like this because any kind of regular health insurance stops paying after a while, you eventually go on Medicaid:
I have to differ with his mom, in that it is extremely common situation in nursing homes allover the country, no matter what color or age. Once they give up on you in the regular hospital, this is what you get! Is very equal opportunity once your assets are gone. She and her son ain't special.

this is a really good piece about the straw purchaser of the handgun that the cop shooters in Chicago used, his arrest situation by ATF and prosecution by the Feds.It has good detail gives one a good sense of what really needs to be done to solving the problem of handguns in blue cities where they are already against the law:
I remembering reading a detailed article in the Bloomberg era in NYC where Bloomberg himself or someone from his foundation explained how attacking this problem is key to getting gun violence under control since reality means it is not going to be possible to outlaw handguns nationwide.
It's not just about gun show loopholes and all that. IT'S ABOUT THESE PEOPLE WHO SPECIALIZE IN MAKING STRAW PURCHASES for basically a little money on the side! These are not gang members or even involved in criminal activities themselves. They are just opportunists who take advantage of the situation of "bad guys" not being able to buy like a gun or a car themselves. All the "bad guys" get to know them, i.e., go see Lenny who works at the Chicken Shack, he'll get you a gun in Indiana.
Lenny basically stays legal, ya see? You have to go after these guys hard
It was the same thing with those two guys in the military a while back who were found to be furnishing guns to criminals in Chicago. They were just doing it for extra money.
It may look wrong at first to see hard time prosecution of these types, but accordiing to Bloomberg experts, it was key to getting gun violence down in NYC, you couldn't make any sort of dent in the the problem without having Feds crack down hard on these small time trafficking on the side guys. Especially in areas like Chicago or NY where crossing state lines to legal handgun sales is not that hard to do, just like a 90 mile trip and a guy can make himself some real bucks buying a handgun he resells to a felon. The straw purchasers are a big big part of the problem. They get caught after the fact when their name is found on the books as the legal purchaser where the gun was legal to own. For prevention you have to unfortunately catch them in the act of selling to a criminal before it's used criminally.

Police had long harbored suspicions about Rashaun Jones, who had gotten into two fistfights with Bryan Pata over an ex-girlfriend.
By Blake Montgomery @ DailyBeast.com, Aug. 19
A University of Miami football player who allegedly shot his teammate in the back of the head in 2006 and evaded police investigations for 15 years was captured Thursday, police said.
Rashaun Jones, a 35-year-old former Miami Hurricanes defensive back, was arrested Thursday and charged with first-degree murder for allegedly killing Bryan Pata, a defensive lineman and a rising star on the team at the time, the Miami Herald reported. Pata was a senior and 22 years old at the time. His jersey number was 95.
The arrest brings potential closure to a brutal case that has remained unsolved for more than a decade. Pata was killed outside his apartment building in Kendall, Florida, a suburb of Miami, after returning from practice on Nov. 7, 2006. There were no witnesses.
The alleged shooter had dated Pata’s ex-girlfriend, Jada Brody, before Pata and had been in two fistfights with him over the relationship. Jones came under public suspicion following an ESPN story published last November that disclosed new details of the investigation. Teammates reportedly said Pata often taunted Jones about the romance with Brody.
[.....]
In the years since Pata’s death, someone repeatedly left items near his grave that seemed to have a strange, ritualistic significance: slaughtered chickens, a goat’s head, a wine bottle with Pata’s name on it with yet another dead bird inside. The eerie offerings disturbed Pata’s family so much they had his remains exhumed and moved to a secret location.
“For nearly 15 years, our homicide investigators have relentlessly searched for the murderer of Bryan Pata,” Alfredo Ramirez, Miami-Dade Police Director, wrote on Twitter.
^ Gosh, a woman as an object to be owned by one male and never to be touched by another male JUST SOUNDS SO FAMILIAR like it's in the news elsewhere, don't it.?
The voodoo-y part of leaving slaughtered chickens and goat's heads on the grave of the enemy as if his ghost can still getcha is a little more esoteric and is actually the kind of tribal animism that codes like "sharia" were meant to regulate.
The body of a woman last seen entering a high-end apartment building on Wall Street was discovered naked inside of an oil drum in NJ.
The man who was seen rolling the drum is said to be a member of the Snow gang, and is under suspicion in Flanagan's death.https://t.co/kBCUj2MEUU

The U.S. incarceration rate fell in 2019 to its lowest level since 1995, according to recently published datafrom the Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS), the statistical arm of the Department of Justice. Despite this decline, the United States incarcerates a larger share of its population than any other country for which data is available.
At the end of 2019, there were just under 2.1 million people behind bars in the U.S., including 1.43 million under the jurisdiction of federal and state prisons and roughly 735,000 in the custody of locally run jails. That amounts to a nationwide incarceration rate of 810 prison or jail inmates for every 100,000 adult residents ages 18 and older.
The nation’s incarceration rate peaked at 1,000 inmates per 100,000 adults during the three-year period between 2006 and 2008. It has declined steadily since then and, at the end of 2019, was at the same level as in 1995 (810 inmates per 100,000 adults).
The number of prison and jail inmates in the U.S. has also decreased in recent years, though not as sharply as the incarceration rate, which takes population change into account,
The estimated 2,086,600 inmates who were in prison or jail at the end of 2019 were the fewest since 2003, when there were 2,086,500. The prison and jail population peaked at 2,310,300 in 2008.
It is not yet clear how the coronavirus pandemic may have affected the U.S. incarceration rate; statistics for 2020 are not expected to be released until later this year. But media reports suggest that the decline in incarceration may have continued and perhaps even accelerated in 2020.
A variety of factors help explain why U.S. incarceration trends have been on a downward trajectory. Violent and property crime rates have declined sharply in recent decades despite a more recent increase in certain violent crimes, especially murder. As crime has declined, so have arrests: The nationwide arrest rate has fallen steadily over the long term.
Changes in criminal laws, as well as prosecution and judicial sentencing patterns, also likely play a role in the declining incarceration rate and number of people behind bars. In late 2018, for example, then-President Donald Trump signed a law aimed at reducing the federal prison population. In its first year, the law led to shorter sentences for thousands of federal offenders and earlier release dates for many others, according to a 2020 report from the U.S. Sentencing Commission [....]

all the many stories along the lines of "5 shot, 1 killed" often there is one about the grieving over the lost one, but very few have follow-ups of what life is for the other 4. It ain't always pretty but we are going to ignore it until like 10 years down the road when the number of inner city handicapped become OVERWHELMING, far more men in nursing homes and/or disabled care than in prison:
welcome to the wonderful world of U.S. nursing homes, they ain't just for old people or even just inner city people, they are virtually all like this because any kind of regular health insurance stops paying after a while, you eventually go on Medicaid:

this is a really good piece about the straw purchaser of the handgun that the cop shooters in Chicago used, his arrest situation by ATF and prosecution by the Feds.It has good detail gives one a good sense of what really needs to be done to solving the problem of handguns in blue cities where they are already against the law:
Feds charge man with providing gun used to kill CPD officer, injure another over weekend
August 9, 2021 CWBChicago
I remembering reading a detailed article in the Bloomberg era in NYC where Bloomberg himself or someone from his foundation explained how attacking this problem is key to getting gun violence under control since reality means it is not going to be possible to outlaw handguns nationwide.
It's not just about gun show loopholes and all that. IT'S ABOUT THESE PEOPLE WHO SPECIALIZE IN MAKING STRAW PURCHASES for basically a little money on the side! These are not gang members or even involved in criminal activities themselves. They are just opportunists who take advantage of the situation of "bad guys" not being able to buy like a gun or a car themselves. All the "bad guys" get to know them, i.e., go see Lenny who works at the Chicken Shack, he'll get you a gun in Indiana.
Lenny basically stays legal, ya see? You have to go after these guys hard
It was the same thing with those two guys in the military a while back who were found to be furnishing guns to criminals in Chicago. They were just doing it for extra money.
It may look wrong at first to see hard time prosecution of these types, but accordiing to Bloomberg experts, it was key to getting gun violence down in NYC, you couldn't make any sort of dent in the the problem without having Feds crack down hard on these small time trafficking on the side guys. Especially in areas like Chicago or NY where crossing state lines to legal handgun sales is not that hard to do, just like a 90 mile trip and a guy can make himself some real bucks buying a handgun he resells to a felon. The straw purchasers are a big big part of the problem. They get caught after the fact when their name is found on the books as the legal purchaser where the gun was legal to own. For prevention you have to unfortunately catch them in the act of selling to a criminal before it's used criminally.

shooting of 4 w/1 dead at a recreation center's basketball court in MD, just a nothingburger in the national news,
no protests, let's not draw attention to this epidemic...

Uh oh, in Atlanta, attention being drawn to dirty little secrets? Hyperbole? ...Every 6 hours a Black woman is killed...AA women are often fearful of reinforcing racial stereotypes the black community is violent.”...

There's basically been a coverup of MASSIVE killing of black males in Philly!!! Crickets!!!
And there were protests, including riots and looting, there last year about: POLICE!!! That's like a headline story for "Ripley's Believe It Or Not."
DeNile, DeNile, DeNile: the epidemic of gun crime has hit a level unmatched in recent memory — a pace that began last summer and has persisted since. DOH - attack the role of police in general and violence-prone men will take advantage of the situation!

GET A GRIP BLM people:
That's almost 2,000 a year in Philly alone, and the majority of them black males.
vs. a steady approx 1,000 a year deaths due to police across the entire nation and a majority of those are white (as per WaPo's database project.)
Really, the whole BLM shtick, it's like a bad dirty trick on black people in the U.S. to distract them from the real harm and danger.

^ Gosh, a woman as an object to be owned by one male and never to be touched by another male JUST SOUNDS SO FAMILIAR like it's in the news elsewhere, don't it.?
The voodoo-y part of leaving slaughtered chickens and goat's heads on the grave of the enemy as if his ghost can still getcha is a little more esoteric and is actually the kind of tribal animism that codes like "sharia" were meant to regulate.

Sopranos' scriptwriters couldn't do better? Are the street gangs doing free-lance gigs like everyone else? Or moving on up from Queens to Wall Street?
