HOW HAS GUN VIOLENCE DETERIORATED OUR COMMUNITIES!
Gun violence in urban communities,has caused,property value to decrease.Quality businesses leave or don't want to come into to the community due to the high rate of homicides.Long time residents of the community decide to move,selling their homes,which eventually become low income housing.Social events in the community begin to decrease as the gun violence escalates.Young children can't play out in their yards or enjoy the neighborhood parks due to the fear of being shot.Delivery persons work in fear of being shot or robbed,Businesses leave creating blocks of empty buildings,which are used for shelter by the homeless or used for selling drugs,prostitution,etc.Local Law Enforcement regard urban communities as hostile.Quality of goods such as food is poor.Emergency services are slow in gun violence plagued communities.Gun violence destroys the quality of life in most inner city communities.Death due to gun violence is a everyday occurrence in a lot communities of color across the nation,to keep our communities from deteriorating,due to gun violence.The community must wake up, stand-up & step up and shout "ENOUGH IS ENOUGH" and get involved in their communities,help Save Our Children.....No Violence-Know Peace!

via Alvin Nix:If I may raise a point of contention with the title of this link. What has destroyed our communities is the absence of Black fathers who are men of character and commitment! Research the behavior of "rogue" elephants, their acting out behavior as opposed to what is normative, and the most effective way of handling it. The Social Welfare system, for the sake of giving a bigger "allowance" for certain conditions, is part of the problem
