    If you can't see the difference I'm not sure what to say.

    But I agree though, the tragic war zones that are inner city america should get more attention.

    And another mass shooting in Detroit, 10 shot, 1 death. Look I don't see a lot of outrage from the political class when its minority on minority killings in the inner cities. Chicago has 197 homicides this year, 15 in the last week, 13 by shooting. On and on...

    And illegal immigration doesn't help either....most illegals from central and south america...look at this list. Some are escaping the violence, and others are importing it.

    If you guys really want to read about inner city gang related killings every day, you certainly can. You don't need to rely on the mainstream media for all of your news.

    NOBODY wants to read about it, I think you're missing the point. We're just saying about what the media finds print worthy & what isn't. How a racist white dick can murder 9 innocent black people & put that on page 1 & how a couple of sick black guys can randomly & tragically shoot 10 blacks including children & stick it deep into the paper where no one can read about it.

    It's a damn shame..... And it isn't a gun problem, it isn't a race problem, it's a heart problem... Lack of good parenting & lack of quality mental health care

    Well globally, people from Africa and south/central america and the Caribbean have really high homicide rates. Predominantly Caucasian countries have low homicide rates. You subtract inner city violence and the US has rates on par with Europe.

    There are genetic links to violence and mental disorders that impact social behavior.

    Agree its not purely a gun problem, but there are illegal gun components to this. It's a complex issue where people in cities have been denied their 2A rights. That only amplified the illegal gun trafficking that further enabled the criminal parts of those areas. Police are unable to deal with the issue because no one has the stomach for the body count (cops + bad guys) to clean up these cities.

    Urban Warfare, is all I can say.........

    I've long felt Law Enforcement should be included in Holidays like Veteran's Day, or Memorial Day.......I strongly see Warfare in these So. Cal streets and across the entire Nation, is a cancer within........

    I sure as hell do NOT mean to slight one Veteran at all, rather, I believe in this era, Urban Warfare is out of control, with perhaps more casualties in the States, than in the Mid-East,(yrs past).....

    As much, I'd like to see non-Vets, who built Bombers, Recon, UCAV's, Fighters, Warships; those who built Missiles and Satellites; all honored.........those who spent their lives, ensuring our Nation keeps the upper hand on Technology, which has created Dominance for our Nation........

    Once a gang member holds his gun he will feel compelled to use it to show off his power or to exert his power by extinguishing a victims life.

    if you can't admit that a white supremist murder at a black church is more interesting to people, I guess we aren't on the same page. The media gives the people what they want, like the missing white women 24/7 show.

    Whether it is or isn't shouldn't matter, such bias should not be shown when it comes to these kinds of tragedy's regardless of skin color.

    And, admit to what? ANY type of senseless murder should be of interest to all.
