On November 15, the Associated Press (AP) fact-checked Democrat presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton’s gun control claims, among which was her contention that “nearly 3,000 [were] killed by guns” between the October 13 Democrat debate and the one that took place on November 14.

On November 11, film director Spike Lee told CNN’s Anderson Cooper that he believes “social media is partly to blame” for the surge in “gun violence” and firearm-related homicides in Chicago.

As of last weekend, there are now 294 recorded homicides in Baltimore this year, up from the 211 murdered during all of 2014.

Bill Ayers, Bernardine Dohrn, and James Kilgore—three communist revolutionaries who were part of domestic terror groups and who all spent years on the run from the law—approved as a man called for “citizen’s tribunals” against the National Rifle Association to be held at the United Nations.

In their latest skirmish with authorities, in what they term a #BaltimoreUprising, Black Lives Matter claimed solidarity with Palestinians who have been murdering Jews in Israel.

On July 29, Baltimore counted its 42nd homicide of the month, tying the “historic high” reached in May of this year.

Last year, St. Louis, Missouri, saw its highest murder rate since 2008, but with 101 killed already this year, the murder rate in the Gateway City looks poised to pass last year’s deadly tally.

Notably the two areas that saw uprisings following police-involved deaths of unarmed black men St. Louis and Baltimore, also saw spikes. Baltimore the first half of the year has experienced 155 murders compared to 105 last year. St. Louis has had 93 murders this year compared with 58 in the same timeframe last year.

New York Mayor Bill de Blasio blasted a New York Post report titled, “You’re 45% More Likely to Be Murdered in de Blasio’s Manhattan,” characterizing the report as “fear mongering.”
