VIOLENCE IS RIGHT HERE BUT, WHERE ARE THE BIG-SHOT VOICES???

hello america!!! i've previously posted about homicides within our borders so, this should come as no surprise...

for 2015, chicago has 404 homicides (288 of them either black or latino) & baltimore has 269---all lives matter; just ask the families & friends of those taken from us...

obama (& others on both sides of the isle) are so quick to get involved with all the violence outside of our borders but have nothing to say about what's occurring within them (unless it's sensationalized by the media outlets)...stronger gun laws are not the answer---both illinois & maryland have some of the strictest gun laws in the country but, they are not prohibiting gun violence...here's a list CLICK HERE...

when will our so-called leaders reach out to the communities & try to solve some of the problems that plague them??? it's common sense (at least to me it is) that those taking lives as quickly as they are:::have a problem with self-worth; probably don't have a job; have no outlet to do anything constructive---whereas, they can be taught the value of self-worth, they can be trained & prepared for employment, centers could be opened to offer & encourage people to undertake something other than violence...
