#BlackLivesMatter Costs Black Lives.

Both Flynn and Milwaukee mayor Tom Barrett are gun-control activists, and Barrett has explicitly blamed Wisconsin’s liberalized concealed-carry laws for the spike in murders, saying they’ve “put more guns on the streets of the city of Milwaukee.” There’s no evidence, however, that concealed-carry permit holders are responsible for any of the crime increase, much less the bulk of it. At the same time, Maryland has extraordinarily strict gun-control laws, including a new round of restrictions passed after the Sandy Hook massacre that include “fingerprinting and licensing requirements for handgun buyers.” Whereas Wisconsin recently liberalized its gun laws and Maryland tightened them, Missouri’s gun laws haven’t been materially changed in almost a decade. Milwaukee, Baltimore, and St. Louis have all seen dramatic increases in murders despite three distinctively different gun-law regimes. What do they have in common? They’ve all been at the center of the radical critique mounted by #BlackLivesMatter.

I detest using "liberalized" here as much as I do when "botched" is employed regarding GunWalker. It's just foul. Liberalizing gun rights in today's context would have to mean clamping down some more prohibition, more gun control! Liberals love their rights ignoring gun control.
Usage regarding guns and gun rights simply isn't proper.

I despise the permit championing done too. Permits or no permits it ain't make a bit a damn difference - it's the same thugs doing the senseless street war killing regardless!

No one wants to touch the elephant in the room Mike. You can dance around it all you want, but the fact is that if you exclude gun violence involving African-Americans from non hyphenated Americans, gun violence in the USA is on a par with Switzerland.

No one wants to talk about this fact, because the solution is a non starter. Much easier to try to take guns from Whitey, which dovetails nicely with the rest of the plan.

They have another thing in common: they want to be judged on their good intentions but disavow any connection to the unintended consequences that any elementary school student could have foreseen.
