If you listen to the mainstream media and message boards, you would think that all blacks are obsessed with Ferguson and ignore black on black crime. If you read the Shreveport Sun and many minority newspapers, you'll find this isn't true. My black friends are 1/10 as concerned about Ferguson as the media would suggest and 10 times more concerned about black on black violence.



Im glad to hear that if true. It would be nice to see more people who think that way. I dont think black people just dont care when its black on black crime, they just seem to turn a blind eye to it instead of figuring out ways to fix the problem. But as you said im sure a decent amount of that is media driven, but some is not

I suspect that blacks keep their discussions of "black on black crime" largely to themselves because they fear a new "war on black on black crime" which would entail a more incarcerations of black men. I also think "black on black" is somewhat disingenuous. I live in a majority black town and our residents aren't shooting one another. It is more "ghetto black on ghetto black" crime.
