I'm still waiting for an honest and current crime/shooting statistic showing the racial breakdown of the ones that are shot and or killed.

We all know the answer here, but no one will come out and address the root of the problem head on.

Saw a stat Nola has over 300 shootings already this year.

Here's a summary of Orleans Parish murders in 2017 (As of Wednesday...and we have multiple murders since then):

81 murders total; annual rate 195.79,

Note: Includes Deborah Cotton and Colby Crawford, due to murder charge.

[Other homicides information remains unchanged],

86 homicides total; annual homicides rate 207.88.

Here are the rotating year totals and UCR approximations:

6/1/2009-5/31/2010: 183 murders and 1 manslaughter= 184 UCR approximation

6/1/2010-5/31/2011: 175 murders and 8 manslaughters = 183 UCR approximation

6/1/2011-5/31/2012: 187 murders and 2 manslaughters = 189 UCR approximation

6/1/2012-5/31/2013: 177 murders and 2 manslaughters = 179 UCR approximation

6/1/2013-5/31/2014: 147 murders and 3 manslaughters = 150 UCR approximation

6/1/2014-5/31/2015: 170 murders and 2 manslaughters = 172 UCR approximation

6/1/2015-5/31/2016: 144 murders and 2 manslaughters = 146 UCR approximation

6/1/2016-5/31/2017: 202 murders and 3 manslaughters = 205 UCR approximation

* Fraction = borderline between neighborhoods.

--The numbers in parentheses are comparisons of number of murders to number of people in the neighborhood, multiplied by 1,000 to avoid too many decimal places.

--Neighborhoods are based on City Planning Commission maps (LINK information comes from news reports. Population data comes from the 2010 Census via GNOCDC.

There are two pairs of neighborhoods, English Turn plus New Aurora and Desire Area plus Desire Development. Their murder totals are combined because only one population number exists for each pair.

If it was contained to the "hood" and no innocent people were hurt, so be it.... let the animals kill their self out and when we get down to a few. Lock them up and throw away the key

The problem is they reproduce way faster than they kill each other

This will keep happening and progressing until the black community starts truly focusing on the root cause of the problem instead of pointing fingers and blame at " the man ".

Will never happen.
