    I disagree that democrat leaders are calling out the crime and violence but even if that were true...dem mayors and governors are doing little to nothing to crack down on it. In fact, they've told cops to stand down and may dems mayors are refusing to prosecute the criminals.

    I'll leave you with this:

    You can sit in silence and not place blame where it belongs, but don't be surprised when ordinary citizens take matter into their own hands. We're getting closer and closer to civil war.

    Your general statement is Hilarious think you need to cutback on your medication

    Lots of looters, arsonists in your neighborhood Don't look out your window HAHAHHAHAHA

          If you believe Democrats aren't calling out the violence you are reading the wrong articles.

          a FACT for you MORE white people are killed per year by cops than black.. same with Hispanics this is from the FBI records themselves

          as your buddy bullshitmaster2 would say GOOGLE FBI.gov

          I'm not going to do all the work for you BUT I will point you in the RIGHT direction.

          and you are wrong about the cops are being targeted....

          look at NYC for your proof on the same website I mentioned.

          dem aren't calling out the violence .. provide PROOF..

                'Promises kept'? Not entirely. Here are five pocketbook pledges Trump broke.
                Candidate Trump's promises included universal health care, tax hikes for the rich, infrastructure spending and six weeks paid leave for all moms. President Trump hasn't delivered.

                  Here's the stats.
                  Blacks make up approximately 13% of the US population, so that is about 43 million people. Out of that 43 million people about 1300 have been killed by police since 2015.
                  Whites make up approximately 72% of the US population, that is about 237 million people. Out of that 237 million people about 2500 have been killed by police since 2015.
                  Kind of disproportionate don't you think?

                    Here's some more stats for you to chew on.

                    Black men make up about 7% of the population but commit about 50% of all violent crime.

                    Kind of disproportionate, don't you think?
