It is merely a numbers game. The fact that 6.5% commit that high of a percentage is an amazing stat in and of itself. The rest is simply a numbers game.

I don’t believe the numbers are accurate.

If you look at the people arrested for murder, I’m sure way less arrests are made when it comes to gang violence than with something like where a husband kills his wife. I would guess that most of the white people who murder are commit murder during domestic disputes, whereas with black offenders it’s street violence and nobody talks and no suspect is arrested. A husband killing a wife is way easier to arrest a suspect than with gang violence.

There’s gotta be more to the numbers than what we see.

Look at any city. Even big cities with large white populations like Boston or Seattle or Portland. It’s still black people doing the vast majority of the murders.

I’ve done a lot of research on this and it just doesn’t add up.
