Knife Crime


Knife crime has become a serious issue within Black African and Caribbean youths. According to Scotland Yard figures Black youths are suspected of more than half of knife crime among children in the capital, A highly-sensitive report reveals that 124 of the 225 under-18s legally 'proceeded against' for knife offences in the past three months are from the black community. Why are black youths turning on their own people? Gangs of black youths are killing each other, because of the area code they live in and having other gang members disrespecting them; why is that a reason to take someone else’s life? That person is someone’s son or possibly someone’s father and loved one. This has to stop; I hate having to turn on the news channel or hearing from a friend that another black young man has been stabbed to death because he was in the wrong area code or an issue of mistaken identity. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1036833/Over-half-young-knife-suspects-black-Scotland-Yard-figures-reveal.html
