Detective Sergeant Joseph "Joe" Friday is "Just the facts, ma'am" :

OK, lets do the criminology math during BO watch on his own hometown
Chicago third largest American city has the toughest gun laws, an administration's hand picked black Mayor,an amiable Police chief, black-
762 people were murdered in the city in 2016,a nearly unheard of 50% increase over 2015. This is more than New York & Los Angeles - both larger cities- combined and the worst figure in 20 years.

Holiday weekends in Chicago reliably provide fodder for TV in the astonishing tallies of shootings & murders a dozen people killed and 27 shootings over the Christmas weekend. Overall, more than 4,300 people were shot in the city!

Chicago Police Superintendent Eddie Johnson says that the surge in violence has been driven by emboldened offenders who acted without a fear of penalty from the criminal justice system.

This Chicago crime trajectory is highly likely !to get worse if not immediately interrupted - NOW

Reality: this once much beloved city & it's people are at great risk

No sight of the rescuing cavalry coming .....

If the president's management & federal enforcement doesn't act who will? - NATO???

I will guarantee, you will not find the answer in Washington from this administration. The violence has been allowed to grow year after year, under this administration. Their only hope is Trump.

Blacks don't see any hope in Trump. They see him as another politician that make promises then reneges on every one of them. Blacks have learned through experience to not put all their hope and trust in man. Instead, we have a wait and see attitude. Prove me wrong or prove me right.
