The truth about gun violence in America.
The vast majority of gun violence in America is waged by blacks on blacks, however, you rarely see printed a headline that states "the black problem with guns in America". As is usual for the politically correct nature of the United States the true issue is neglected for the more acceptable normalization of a false rationale. In America you are vastly more likely to be murdered with a firearm, or murdered in general, if your skin tone is black. Now why is that? Pre civil-rights movement you would hear that whites vs blacks in America was the overwhelming reason, that is patently untrue today.
Blacks slaughter blacks at an alarming rate. Now America refuses to address this specifically, instead having a generalized debate on overall gun ownership - which is not the problem in America. As with most criminal acts today, the issue is society. The issue is the value that life holds in an urban environment. If you look statistically there are far more guns in non-urban areas, legally, yet far more gun related murder in an urban environment. Until America spends its time focusing on this issue, everything else will continue.
For statistical facts on this consider the Brady Bill: http://www.bradycampaign.org/facts/gunviolence/factsethnicity
Or if that isn't your flavor, consider the Bureau of Statistics:

Anyway you slice it, black Americans have a problem with violence especially gun related in the United States.
