The Black Lives Matter Effect is Killing Black Children

The Black Lives Matter Effect is Killing Black Children
Excerpt: Mekhi James, a 3-year-old boy, cried, "It hurts", after he was shot in Chicago. Then he died. Sincere Gaston, a 1-year-old boy, was also shot and killed in Chicago. A 3-year-old girl was shot in the chest while playing in the front yard with other children. She was among the four toddlers shot in Chicago in two weeks. Older children are also being shot. An 8-year-old girl was grazed in the head, and a 5-year-old boy in the buttocks. Natalia Wallace, a 7-year-old girl described as “quiet and sweet” was shot and killed on the sidewalk. “Where is the outrage? Our babies are being shot. These are our babies," Chicago PD's Chief of Operations Fred Waller, who is African-American, asked. The question ought to be directed to Black Lives Matter as the BLM Effect fuels shootings and deaths around the country. And the most vulnerable of the BLM Effect’s victims are black children. Eight children under the age of 10 have been shot in Chicago in the past few weeks. The cause of these shootings is an upsurge in crime from the Black Lives Matter riots that have devastated the country. (Defunding the police in the cities will cost the lives of at least 5,000 black folks a year, many of them children. ~Bob)
