[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^while everyone bickers over ideology and grabs at $, it is poor black people who are paying the price...why don't black victims matter, only black criminals? How many dead black DC children will be ENOUGH to merit a change of course? [/quote]

The people who should be leading that change are the black community.  You think these teenage carjackers care what some liberal white transplant lady to DC from Illinois has to say?  That's the LAST person they are going to listen to or care what they have to say.  DC has already been black-run for decades, so what's going to change?  DC has already been dumping millions into dozens of programs to help poor black people and to supposedly reduce crime.  The blacks who figured out how to get themselves out of poverty have moved out of the city and want nothing to do with those kids.  So how is it then somehow the responsibility of everyone else if the people who are actually closest to the issue aren't dealing with it?

Do better.  For example, "Violence Interrupters" as one of the grand ideas of the Racial Equity advocates - it's NOT WORKING.  The people who wrote that report need to pull their heads out of their rear ends.
