In an interview on NBC, filmaker Spike Lee claimed that Americans don’t care about the massive amounts of gun violence because its “not Sandy Hook.”
While Spike Lee attempts to spin Americans’ lack of interest in Chicago by insinuating that no one cares because those who are dying aren’t innocent, young, white, schoolchildren, he’s totally ignoring those who are ignoring the violence in Chicago.
While most of America is pointing toward Chicago as proof that gun-free zones don’t work, those who are outright ignoring the city is none other than Black Lives Matter.
The reason for this is obvious. When it comes to Black Lives Matter, black lives only matter when they are killed by white Americans. Because such a huge percentage of Chicago’s murders are black on black crime, Black Lives Matter doesn’t seem to care.

It’s your people doing the killing, you figure out how to stop it.
spike lee makes such ignorant statements. it isn’t that we don’t care but white lives matter too and i choose to avoid getting my mugged or killed. chicago was my favorite weekend hangout but i don’t feel it is safe to go there anymore. i really miss it but it’s not worth the risk. sorry visitor’s bureau or chamber of commerce but your public relations really stink.
Nope I sure don’t !!!
Nope, I just don’t care what an idiot like Spike Lee has to say about how I as a person should think or feel.
Well that’s just a ridiculous statement. If you’re so concerned about it, Spike Lee, why don’t you get your butt there and try to help?!?
What gun violence? They have gun control.
how about because your racist black president doesnt wand the liberal media he has in his back pocket broadcasting the fact that there is
It is not Americans it is the gov and leaders of this country that won’t to keep people against one another
Hey Spike, Either does YOUR President
Well. Alright. He’s right. I don’t care if the black people shoot thelemselves up every night. I can’t fix it. They refuse to fix it. It is what it is.
