LINK At least 150 people fatally shot in more than 400 shootings over the Fourth of July weekend - CNN

I can't help but wonder, "When will people STOP thinking this is a 'Black on Black' issue?"

*Footnote: Chicago homicide rate is down 2% for this time frame in 2020. A reason for the drop was a less violent June where Chicago saw a 20% drop in homicides compared to last year (98 instead of 78), a 13% drop in shootings (416 compared to 363) and an 8% decrease in shooting victims (540 compared to 499).

The ages of the victims (in this report, are shockingly young. And many of them.) 😢

(I used Chicago simply because that's the geography location that I'm personally involved with via volunteerism. It appears that Chicago is one of the few cities that can claim a decrease in homicides, while still having an uptick/surge of violent crime. More bullets, less dead bodies, still godawful.). 😔😢

So much for being free. Free to kill. Like so much else in this country, the 4th is just symbolic of a crumbling country.

I am positive that it has nothing to do with the violence on the boob tube or in the movies.

@SeaGreenEyez No I think it because they can't come up with new material.
