CHICAGO (CBS) – An Illinois state representative has publicly raised the possibility that Chicago police officers might be the ones responsible for the unsolved murders of black youths in Chicago.

State Rep. Monique Davis (D-Chicago) was interviewed about Chicago crime Tuesday on WCHB-AM in Detroit.

“I’m going to tell you what some suspicions have been, and people have whispered to me: they’re not sure that black people are shooting all of these children,” Davis said.

“There’s some suspicion – and I don’t want to spread this, but I’m just going to tell you what I’ve been hearing – they suspect maybe the police are killing some of these kids.”

When WBBM asked Davis if she thinks it’s possible that police are killing children, she said, “I don’t know. I don’t know that they are, and I don’t know that they aren’t, since no one’s been arrested. We don’t know who’s doing it.”

I’ll make this little suggestion: the suspects will be black male gangbangers.  I know, I know, call me crazy.  But it’s this little uncertainty that I have.  You might wish to consult the graphic below:

Homicide Males CDCOr from AfroDaddy.com:

In relation to homicide the number one killer of black men is other black men.  It is a national tragedy that black-on-black crime ranks as the 4th leading cause of death for black men.  In the age group of 15 – 34 black-on-black crime is the #1 killer of black men.

That is worth repeating: “In the age group of 15 – 34 black-on-black crime is the #1 killer of black men.”

Sometimes the obvious is simply too intuitive to ignore, Rep Davis, unless one happens to be inherently racist.  I believe you can do the mathematics on that one.
