I wouldn't be surprised if Louisiana's are more likely to commit murder. Some things can have a correlation but no causal relationship.

Let's say that the ONLY indicator of crime was income. Well since blacks have less income, there would still be a correlation. As a high-income black, how would you react to hearing these stats? That's what sucks about racism.

Just something to think about.

Even though there are 2x as many "poor" white Americans than black Americans, crime rates are still significantly higher for black Americans.

According to the data there's no reason to assume that poverty causes more crime
