Looks like nobody can shoot in Milwaukee

I don't believe any of these shooters build or upgrade their own firearms, reload, and/or practice at the firing range. None of my firearm-handling acquaintances, if they had a need to shoot, would rarely leave anyone with a non-life threatening gunshot wound.

nope, one black guy (who was actually discharging a weapon at the cops) gets shot and it's the end of the world. but 10x (or 100x) that are shot by their own in the black community and no one gives a single f_ck. i think if the black community would police their own and clean up their act, they'd get way more respect from all the other communities. expecting everyone else to treat them better than they treat themselves isn't working so well.

Those are what I would call two separate issues. The issue is not the killing. Its the getting away with it. You can find cases where a shooting was justified, you can find one where it wasn't. The results are the same though, no charges for the shooter. That is a problem.
