People of colour commit almost 70% of the murders in the US.
Research also shows that anywhere from 80-97% percent of gun crime is committed with illegally obtained guns. In the UK I wouldn't never dream of wanting to own a firearm. If I lived in the states I almost certainly would have one.
The best way to reduce gun crime in America is to improve the economy.
Are we assimilating 'people of colour' and Muslims now? It's a separate debate, but I'd blame economic marginalisation for those figures. Do you agree? The alternative would seem to be something along the lines of 'black people are inherently criminal'.
Do you have sources for this research on gun crime? Would be interested in seeing them. Worth pointing out that when it's more difficult to access firearms legally, as a direct consequence it becomes more difficult to access them illegally.
