Wow, there is some SERIOUS stereotyping going on here....if that is truly your belief and opinions, why are you shocked about the frustration in the black community. So the few other "black men" only want to drive around shooting people?? How do you feel about Michael Vick going to prison for shooting a dog? And the black woman who has 20 years for firing a WARNING SHOT to her abusive husband? I guess that's ok. You make Jacksonville look so bad right now. It's a shame.

So, the video that accompanies this story begins with an advertisement for Shooters announcing a sale on firearms. I could care less about gun control either way, but I think linking such an advertisement to a story where two young men were shot and killed is disgraceful. Producers, pay more attention to your content/advertisement parings.

What black on black crime, white guys were shot, and nobody knows anything else. Statistically since white people were shot, it's more than likely white people did the shooting. In any case, who cares, why are we trying to make it a race thing before anyone knows ANYTHING. You guys obviously can't read an article.

This is what makes me sick about the black community. While i know there are a few good black young men out there who plan a much better life for thmselves, its these selected few that turns my stomach. these are the ones that make it hard for the other young men who wants much more then to ride around shooting people.

With all this violence the Mayor is cutting the budget to the JSO. What the what? Really? The black on black crime has escalated again. It has happened is the past. There was a short lull when most of those either got life in prison, were killed or maybe a few actually found their way out to become decent productive citizens. Now we have the next generation becoming the current problem. As for those that fear retaliation, understand that. Yet, from what can be observed, the witnesses are compensated by the "bad guys" in that they get cash, gifts and when you have "nothing" you are easily bought. Also there are the people that are generations deep into subsidized housing, EBT hand outs, this list goes on. They are as much of the problem as the actual criminal/thug/gang element.

Getting insane in Jax. Usually black on black shooting with 20 witnesses that saw nothing because it was black on black. Additionally, when it's gang related, if they do come forward the rest of the gang will pay them a visit, a few months after the police stop protecting the witness. Bad situation all the way round. Lately been a lot murders in Jax we need to put and end to that.
