Race Crimes in America: The Myth and the Facts

Overwhelmingly, it is blacks who kill blacks

2010 FBI race murder stats

Whites outnumber blacks 6 to 1 in the U.S.

  • 2010 murder statistics show black-on-black murder total (2,459) was very nearly as high as white-on-white (2,777).
    • If blacks murdered each other at the same rate whites do, then their total would be one-sixth, not equal to whites.
  • 2009 abortion statistics show a similar pattern.  Percent of total abortions = Black 35.4% vs. White 36%.
    • If blacks aborted each other at the same rate as whites do, then their numbers would be one-sixth not equal to whites.

The fact is that blacks kill each other at SIX TIMES the rate that whites kill each other. And blacks kill whites at twice the rate that whites kill blacks.

    Facts? They don’t need facts. If the people start paying attention to facts then how will they be able to protest the “injustices”? This won’t do at all. After all, it would really put a damper on things if they let that pesky truth stuff get in the way.

  2. Outstanding column by Dennis Prager:

    “The greatest hope most Americans — including Republicans — had when Barack Obama was elected president was that the election of a black person as the country’s president would reduce, if not come close to eliminating, the racial tensions that have plagued America for generations.

    “This has not happened. The election, and even the re-election, of a black man as president, in a country that is 87 percent non-black — a first in human history — has had no impact on what are called ‘racial tensions.’ …

    “I put quotation marks around the term ‘racial tensions’ because the term is a falsehood.”

    Read the whole thing. You won’t be sorry.

      You’re right. GOOD analysis. I think the deeper question is WHY the anger. Everybody in the world has stuff to be pissed about. Why does black leadership, the most egregious being allegedly religious leadership, focus not on helping people deal with their angers in constructive ways but simply vent it on the convenient and numerous “white”? I see this in Obama’s narrative. He has a LOT of baggage, most of which is about crappy parents, but rather than deal with those issues, he just dumped it all into a bag of racial resentment and called himself a black man. And then, filled with this seething “racial tension”, he pretended to be the answer to “racial tension” in this country. Riiiiiiiiiiiiiight.
