Remarking on last week’s mass shooting in San Jose, California Gov. Gavin Newsom asked, “What the hell is wrong with us, and when are we going to come to grips with this?” His unfiltered response is entirely understandable: nine coworkers were murdered by a disgruntled employee who was armed with semi-automatic handguns and high-capacity magazines.
The tragic irony of the situation was not lost on Sen. Diane Feinstein (D-Calif.), who across the country in Washington, D.C., prefaced her questioning of David Chipman, President Biden’s highly qualified nominee to lead the ATF, by saying, “While we are sitting here, we have a gunman in San Jose shooting down people.” That didn’t stop Senate allies of the NRA from attacking the long-time veteran of the ....

Sen. Marilyn Moore, D-Bridgeport, organized a news conference in mid-April following the shooting death of a three-year old in Hartford. On Friday, she convened a joint informational committee hearing to hear about gun violence intervention and prevention.
On a recent Saturday in Hartford, 3-year-old Randell Jones was shot and killed while sitting in a car with his siblings. Later that afternoon, just a mile away, 16-year-old Ja’Mari Preston was shot dead. These are not isolated events. Over the 10-year period ending in 2017, more than 400 young people in Connecticut have been killed by guns. The crisis of gun violence disproportionately affects communities of color. One statistic screams out: young Black men in Connecticut are 39 times more likely than young white men to be slain with a gun. ....

Black leaders call for more anti-violence aid after killings


Black leaders call for more anti-violence aid after killings
By DAVE COLLINSApril 14, 2021 GMT
HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) Black lawmakers and community group leaders called Wednesday for more federal and state aid for chronically underfunded anti-violence programs in Connecticut’s cities, following the killings of a 3-year-old boy and a teenager in Hartford last weekend.
Gathered outside the state Capitol, members of the legislature’s Black and Puerto Rican Caucus said during a news conference that the state has not done nearly enough over the past several decades to try to curb violence, especially among youth.
They said a lack of aid has contributed to cycles of violence in Hartford, Bridgeport, New Haven and other cities with large Black and Hispanic populations and some of the poorest neighborhoods in the country. ....
