Dear Stupid frick Who Wrote This Letter,

Eat a dick. Why do you refuse to address the real problems? Every conversation I have with people like you going like this:

You: Police kill black people.

Me: Actually the number of black people killed by police makes up something like 0.04% of blacks who are murdered. 90% of blacks who are murdered are murdered by other blacks. Why do you feel the need to ignore the real problems? If you want to reduce the interactions black people have with police then why not work on lowering the crime rate in these areas?

You: Police kill black people.

Are you though? One would think there would be a bigger outcry and attempt to fix something that's a bigger issue than white on black crime.

Or you're aware of it and don't care.

dcrews and Mr. Wayne touched on it but I was hoping someone would dig a little deeper into the numbers.


The 2014 numbers show 37.7% of violent crime arrests were black people. 147,002 out of 390,233 violent crime arrests.

27.8% of all arrests were black people. They commit a disproportionate amount of crime, that much is undeniable, but the idea they commit the majority of crime is ridiculous.

That’s right. White people kill white people. Black people kill black people. I know what you’re thinking: Yes, but black people do so disproportionately. You’re right—even though white people commit most violent crimes (which means that due to the raw numbers, if we had a choice between eliminating white-on-white crime or black-on-black crime, confronting white-on-white crime would pay far greater dividends).




using the same year this guy did (2013):

a total of 5,723 people were murdered in the US.
2,755 killed by white people (total white pop = 195 million)
2,698 killed by black people (total black pop = 38 million)

if white people committed murders (regardless of victims race) at the same rate as black people, the USS would have had over 195,000 murders that year.

that's 90,000 more deaths than Vietnam, Korea, Pakistan, and both Iraq wars COMBINED.

The cornerstone of their argument rests on the statistic that 90 percent of black people who are murdered are murdered by other blacks. That fact would give me pause or make me feel ashamed if I didn’t know that the same 2013 FBI report (the latest year for which statistics are available) goes on to say that 83 percent of white victims of murder were killed by white people.

I didn't bother to check these numbers for accuracy. Provided they are correct it would further explain why whites don't trust blacks. Since 35%+ of all major crimes are committed by 13% of the population somebody must be the victims of the rest of those numbers. Murder is included in that 35%+. Somewhere between 40 and 50 black offenders depending on who you believe.

That being the case I think OP info may be right. You whiteys need to quit obsessing on black on black crime. You need to worry more about black people killing yo white craka arse.

Here are some more interesting numbers.

quote:

Crime rates
There are dramatic race differences in crime rates. Asians have the lowest rates, followed by whites, and then Hispanics. Blacks have notably high crime rates. This pattern holds true for virtually all crime categories and for virtually all age groups.

In 2013, a black was six times more likely than a non­black to commit murder, and 12 times more likely to murder someone of another race than to be murdered by someone of another race.
Interracial crime

In 2013, of the approximately 660,000 crimes of interracial violence that involved blacks and whites, blacks were the perpetrators 85 percent of the time. This meant a black person was 27 times more likely to attack a white person than vice versa. A Hispanic was eight times more likely to attack a white person than vice versa.

Urban centers
In 2014 in New York City, a black was 31 times more likely than a white to be arrested for murder, and a Hispanic was 12.4 times more likely. For the crime of “shooting”—defined as firing a bullet that hits someone—a black was 98.4 times more likely than a white to be arrested, and a Hispanic was 23.6 times more likely.
If New York City were all white, the murder rate would drop by 91 percent, the robbery rate by 81 percent, and the shootings rate by 97 percent.
In an all­-white Chicago, murder would decline 90 percent, rape by 81 percent, and robbery by 90 percent.

Another Bureau of Justice Statistics report explicitly states that between 2008 and 2012, “Poor urban blacks (51.3 per 1,000) had rates of violence similar to poor urban whites (56.4 per 1,000).

”What is "rates of violence"? That seems vague.


It is intentionally vague and frankly misleading in this context. That number is how many victims of violent crime per 1,000 people that fit the demographic. For every 1,000 poor urban whites, 56.4 can be expected to experience a violent crime. It comes from the BJS Victimization report, not a report on the offenders, which is the focus of his letter.

In 2015, The Washington Post launched a real-time database to track fatal police shootings, and the project continues this year. As of Sunday, 1,502 people have been shot and killed by on-duty police officers since Jan. 1, 2015. Of them, 732 were white, and 381 were black (and 382 were of another or unknown race).

Dam sure is!! They only commit 40 to 50% depending on who you believe, 49.7 in one in 2012.

The problem that keeping race in the forefront of the discourse (thanks BLM ) is that it ignores more cogent factors.

To wit: what social strata are these black people who commit so much crime hailing from? How can we solve those issues? Are other minorities and whites in similar situations finding the same propensity to resort to criminal behavior? Is recidivist behavior encouraged or discouraged? Etc.

Making false blanket statements (i.e., black people endure rampant racism from white cops) invites turnabout along the exact same lines.

Nothing is accomplished.

Everyone is mad.

No one is paying attention to the actual underlying problems because we're too busy trying to rack and stack by melanin levels.

I do not really understand how people quantity black on black crime as anything but a meaningless idea.

A black investment banker with an MBA living in Manhattan has what in common with a black gang member in Memphis?

Why should either care about the other?

Precisely.

That's also why I have a problem with the term "black community." It's a misnomer.

To be fair, these offender rates should be taken with a grain of salt.

For example, in 2013, the FBI homicide data (Table 6) shows information on 5,723 homicides. For that same year, the FBI estimates there were 14,196 murders. They only have the offender statistics on roughly 40% of murders.

I'm not suggesting these ratio are completely irrelevant, but there were 14,196 murders in 2013. They only produce information on ones that are solved basically.
