another shooting in Baltimore

Turn the criminal over to the police.

"If you see something, say something."
 
Let's not forget that the number one killer of young black men is other young black men. Why? It appears to be mostly gang-related.

Factors Influencing Gang-Related Violence
Respondents indicated the factor(s) that significantly influenced gang-related violence in their jurisdictions.

  • In each year, a clear majority of agencies reported that intergang (between-gang) conflict and drug-related factors directly affected local levels of gang violence.
  • Somewhat frequently reported (more than one-third of the agencies) in 2012 were the following three factors: the return of gang members from secure confinement, intragang (within-gang) conflict, and the emergence of new gangs.
  • Two factors, gang members returning from confinement and intragang conflict, increased in importance by more than 10 percentage points from 2006 to 2012.
  • In contrast, gang-member migration and the emergence of new gangs noticeably declined in importance over survey years.
