"Not only did one of [Kim Foxx's] assistants make a terrible, consequential mistake in court alleging Toledo was armed at the moment he was shot, Foxx also admitted she didn’t watch the video evidence herself before her prosecutor went to court in one of the first appearances linked to the Toledo case — a court appearance involving the person Toledo allegedly was with that night."
There will be no change. The violence stems from a lack of family. From a lack of value, standards, expectations, and personal agency/ownership – from the ease with which folks don the mantle of victimhood. And, consider this, Floyd, regardless of the nature of the tragedy, has been made into a hero… A HERO? Likely the events of that day resulted in his death, but the guy was the furthest thing from a hero as can be imagined. BUT, WHERE IS THIS MENTIONED? WHERE IS HIS LACK OF CHARACTER DISCUSSED?

Otherwise that’s a ‘gotcha’ moment , see,… Read more »
The deceased’s nickname was Lil Homicide, out with a gun at 2:30 am with a partner who unloaded 8 bullets into the night. The parents here are the culpable party.

Completely agree!
Using words like epidemic (implies a natural disease) to describe the violence, and ascribing the cause to racism, makes it certain that they will be pointing fingers at each other forever. Because they will never solve a problem that they can’t even correctly identify.
