more importantly they should be taking responsibility for the actions of their community in the same manner they expect the police to take responsibility for the actions of their officers.
Police officers are hired, trained and commanded by a chief of police. The chief of police can discipline and even fire officers who violate rules and the law. The Chief has full and complete authority over the actions of each and every officer. The City has full and complete authority over the Chief.
Are you under the impression that there's some kind of Chief of the Blacks who should be "taking responsibility" for the actions of Black people?
No, are you under the impression that there are no community leaders in those communities?
Sorry my mistake. Most of them are being run as anarchy driven Soweto style townships not ruled by any form of law other than the gang variety. I don't expect them to be trained in law enforcement but I do expect the citizens of these communities to accept and try to maintain the responsibility of citizenship that every other law abiding persons in america is held to.
So, if they want to stop the violence in their communities the first things they'll have to do is accept the fact that they're even more culpable than the police in causing it. Then, they'll have to try to change the culture and not allow themselves to be co opted by BLM and white SJW's who claim to speak for all of them but until that happens it's going to continue to be the US Vs Them mentality that's so prevalent today.
BTW there is a Chief of the Blacks and he's been mostly silent when it came to the problems and their causes in his home city. His one solution for all the black on black, black on white, black on police, police on black, police on white violence is more ineffective gun control that'll have zero effect on the true problem.
