Gun Violence By Race????
Posted on 6/14/17 at 7:44 pm
Posted on 6/14/17 at 7:44 pm
My wife and I were listening to Tucker this evening and one of his guests was a black guy talking about gun violence and more control being needed. That being said, I remarked to my wife that I have never seen a breakdown of gun violence by ethnicity. She said I never will because the percentage of black violence would pale any other race.
Has any seen a breakdown on violence by race? If so please post. Thanks guys.

WaPo
Every race is responsible for almost 90% of their own murders I believe
quote:
Between 2000 and 2010, the death rate due to firearm-related injuries was more than 18.5 per 100,000 among blacks, but only nine per 100,000 among whites. For Hispanics, it was just over seven per 100,000, and for all other races it was just below 3.5 per 100,000.

So is the 3.5 Asian???? What other races are hanging out?

FBI UCR
See tables 43, 49, 55, 61, and 67. You'll want to compare crime rates to population rates.
FBI UCR tables
eta: the FBI used to keep records of race on race crime (black ok white, white on black, etc.) That table may still be listed in there, but I'm too lazy to search for it.

Maybe next you can ask the GOP to stop preventing research into issues of gun violence so we can have a more informed discussion?

Check the FBI's Uniform Crime Report. Should be on their website. Can almost guarantee they break down race as a variable. They break homicides down by weapon type as well.

So if my math is correct, per capata, blacks are responsible for right at twice the amount of gun violence as whites.

One of my supposed good friends stopped speaking to me today because i stated a fact about african american shootings.
This comment regarding a fact was deemed to make me an intollerant racist... all this following his reaction to the shooting today by saying "frick the congressman"
Some of the left are really becoming unhinged.

I can assure you that at least 90% of present day New Orleans gun violence is committed by the black race.

Why do you think that is?

Confederate monuments of course.

Yes you are twice as likely to be killed by gunfire as an African American. And 90% of the time it will be by another African American
^ this is homicide in general, not gun specific.
Both races mainly kill themselves, likely due to association. Interestingly a white person is twice as likely to be killed by an African American as vice versa, which isn't the mainstream narrative. Poverty rates probably play a big role though

So the federal government not funding the CDC to study "the underlying causes of gun violence" is preventing research into gun violence? Do you people have any critical thinking? Do you know many studies are available on crime and gun crime specifically? There are plenty that you can reference and no one is stopping academics and independent researchers from studying away.
Try making an actual argument instead of perpetuating more bullshite narratives.

Maybe, but by this logic American white culture is one of the worst in the Western world comparatively. Since our whites have a lot more gun deaths per 100,000 people then any other first world western country. Homicide or other.

Remember, Hispanics are considered White in FBI data.

Nice job purging your white guilt.
We do have a pretty terrible population of white people, many buying into urban culture, some just a product of shirty welfare homes. But we don't come close to the inner city homicide rate.
I know that hurts you...but stay strong.
