It's not really a contingent belief when we can measure the responses to both of these things via social media activity. I don't disagree with you that black people care, but they certainly are not expressing that belief in the same frequency or way as they do the outrage over a black criminal who assaults a cop getting shot. Because these are two entirely different issues that require two entirely different solutions. The police brutality issue gets more attention across social media because it requires public support, which holds the police more accountable for their actions. You can't stop gang violence and criminal activity by taking to Twitter. That's about as effective as telling an armed gunman "Don't shoot!" I bet you could stop gang violence by protesting gang activity and punching gangbangers without provocation, though. --- 'It's okay that those gangbangers stole all my personal belongings and cash at gunpoint, cuz they're building a rec center!' - OneTimeBen <cite>darkjedilink posted [p:887257251] in 3 men kill...
