I feel like it’s fucked up when people bring up black on black crime in the context of police shooting black people or the like. Like, people wanting to ignore other problems that black people are faced with.

So I feel like the comparable would be if this was in a thread about a women killing a man (or something a bit more systematic, it’s hard to come up with an example, actually) and in the comments was someone saying “oh well most male victims are victims of male-in-male crime”.

I feel like just bringing up black-on-Black crime isn’t fucked up. That’s a real issue that the black community had to deal with, it’s s huge awful part of their burden. It’d be fucked up if we ignored it - ignored the fact that kids are growing up without dads or having their neighbors/relatives shot of go to jail for murder. It’s awful.
