killing more blacks is pretty stupid. At some point maybe you need to look inward, black community.
Also, it's hard to take the "black lives matter" trope seriously when literally every day I wake up to new shootings in STL, almost all black on black crime. Kids being shot, people being murdered and thrown in the trunks of cars.
If you measure the progress of blacks with other groups of minorities simililarly situated, they are severely lagging in many areas. All of that cannot be society's fault and yet that's how the story is presented.
It's especially grating when you have something like the Great Recession which kicked a lot of people's ass, regardless of color. Then you have COVID which is picking on people who have poor immunity. That's largely lifestyle.
