white murder rate 48.2 %
white population in usa makes up 72.41%
black murder rate 49.4 %
black population in usa makes up 12.61%
So nearly half of all murder committed in this country are by blacks and blacks are 1/8 the population of whites who make up about equal amount of murders.
Now the big reason I always thought of was because of poverty.
Poverty by Race/Ethnicity
white 19,027,400
hispanic 12,853,100
black 10,312,400
There are almost twice as many white's in poverty than blacks. Yet they do not have twice the murder rate as blacks.
It was pointed out in reddit and it is a big circlejerk of white nerds with neckbeards and fedoras speaking internet courage against this "black crime" but I wasn't able to think of a good counter because I always blamed it on the poverty.
Also I must point out that James Watson who is a Noble prize winning scientist said "all our social policies are based on the fact that their intelligence is the same as ours – whereas all the testing says not really"
He basically said our laws would not work in Africa because blacks don't have the same intelligence that we do. Pretty messed up and I don't agree with it. I have friends who are black who are far smarter than me, no way this can be true.
