Minneapolis now at 60. Two men shot this afternoon by the intersection where George Floyd was killed. One died.

Pittsburgh now at 45 after last night's homicide in our troubled Lincoln-Lemington-Belmar neighborhood. Coincidentally this is also the mayor's neighborhood.

And it's unfortunate that most of these homicides are among the black communities. Minneapolis for instance has approximately 85,000 blacks and Baltimore approximately 350,000. Almost all black victims in both cities. Minneapolis 60 homicides almost all black timed times 4 is 240 and minneapolis black population times 4 is 340,000. So among the black communities of Minneapolis and Baltimore you are almost equally as likely to become a murder victim is yoi are black.. it seems Baltimore has about the same homicide rate within the black community as Minneapolis but it is considered far worse. I'm just wondering if it's misleading for us to assume that. Chicago had hundreds of homicides but very few are white. For a black person is Baltimore or chicago are they really anymore dangerous than Minneapolis or Portland etc?.
