Gang war rages in London

Tweet

50th murder of the year in London and we are only in April. In Chicago it’s around 450 a year and as high as 2200 in the 1980s in New York City. As with all the big cities in America and the United Kingdom the deaths are mostly in urban areas, black on black, often drug related, more likely to be respect and neighbourhood issues these days. The killers and victims are getting younger and the numbers would be much higher if not for advanced surgery techniques learnt in the world’s battlefields to keep these kids alive. The latest is tit-for-tat style killings, but not just gang member for gang member. Now they kill innocent people and friends and relatives of the target, female or child. You don’t want to say it but this is animal behaviour. I know poor working class black kids have nothing to lose as both the white middle-class and, indeed, black middle-class cross the street from them but to kill your own over an argument over a damaged coat or a stare at your girlfriend is pathetic. The black middle-class as equally afraid of these thugs never miss the chance to blame the cops or racism for this though. The governmental intend to react to tomorrow with an increased police presence in the bad areas of London with more stop and search. The MET police have been cut by 20% since the 2008 crash. Black parents hate stop and search but the parents of these kids have bought this upon themselves. Nearly half of the mothers in these areas are single parents. Black men do not stay around. Some are in prison; some are away dating white women. It’s not the best environment to bring up kids, let alone live your lives. As eve the black community want to take zero blame for this spike in violence and scream racism if anything is done to stop it and so its left to the emergency services to pick up the pieces.
