-Lurid Crime Tales-
Race and Crime in America - The unspoken statistical reality of urban crime over the last quarter century.
2020-06-21
[UNZ] The recent wave of riots and looting has been the worst our country has seen in two generations, but some of the crucial underlying factors have been avoided by nearly our entire mainstream media, as well as by most conservative outlets. Republishing this article from a few years ago may help to shed light on these important matters.

#6  It's said that (pay site):

African-Americans made up 53% of known homicide offenders in the U.S. and commit about 60% of robberies, though they are 13% of the population.

The imbalance is even worse than that, since the vast majority of these homicides are committed by black males


If we assume that black males commit the overwhelming majority of such homicides and that black males are roughly half the overall population of blacks, then this means that about 5-7% of the population is responsible for more than 50% of the homicides.

#1  The reason so many interactions between the police and a community is crime. No crime, you can have Barney Fife as your constable. One community refuses to address IT'S problem which is the only solution to the issue. That's because pols find it so much easier to blames someone else who 'turns the other cheek' way too many times.
