In an interview on NBC, filmaker Spike Lee claimed that Americans don’t care about the massive amounts of gun violence because its “not Sandy Hook.”
While Spike Lee attempts to spin Americans’ lack of interest in Chicago by insinuating that no one cares because those who are dying aren’t innocent, young, white, schoolchildren, he’s totally ignoring those who are ignoring the violence in Chicago.
While most of America is pointing toward Chicago as proof that gun-free zones don’t work, those who are outright ignoring the city is none other than Black Lives Matter.
The reason for this is obvious. When it comes to Black Lives Matter, black lives only matter when they are killed by white Americans. Because such a huge percentage of Chicago’s murders are black on black crime, Black Lives Matter doesn’t seem to care.
Check out Spike Lee’s interview itself on the next page:
The gang violence is inextricably tied to the hip-hop culture. It is not Americas’ fault that a violent subculture has taken root in chicago, nor is it the guns’ fault when it is used. The fault lies with the thugs themselves. If anyone is to be blamed it is the politicians themselves who have stood by and watched this happen. Those who’ve done nothing while the thug culture has taken over whole neighborhoods. The lawlessness spreads because it is not punished, not because of the presense of guns.
When blacks have a problem, it’s the whites fault. Blacks must think only whites have sense enough to help.
And you do??
All of the race-baiting politicians and activists share blame. They pour fuel on the fires of racism.
Not true spike many do care. But are told not are business. Or we dont know cause we are not black.
Respect the law of the land God said
BS!!!
When blacks start caring…the rest of us might.
Spike Lee you are a
Jerk!!!!!
Someone slap the freakiin’ glasses off his goofy face. Please…..
