So you have the numbers that prove that false?
Serial and rampage killing is likely the only criminal endeavour outside of white collar crime where blacks are in proportion to population. Most other crimes they commit at double or triple the rate of other demographics. About half the murders committed by 13% of the population is mindboggling.
Not necessarily.
National Poverty Center | University of Michigan
22% of children under the age of 18 are in poverty.
38.2% of blacks
35% of hispanics
13.6% of Asians
12.4% of white non-hispanics
Or for all people
"Poverty rates for blacks and Hispanics greatly exceed the national average. In 2010, 27.4 percent of blacks and 26.6 percent of Hispanics were poor, compared to 9.9 percent of non-Hispanic whites and 12.1 percent of Asians."
Poverty Facts | Poverty Rate, Poverty Thresholds & Census Information
"According to 2012 US Census Data, the highest poverty rate by race is found among Blacks (27.2%), with Hispanics (of any race) having the second highest poverty rate (25.6%). Whites had a poverty rate of 9.7%, while Asians had a poverty rate at 11.7%."
FBI ? Expanded Homicide Data Table 3
31.4% of murders are committed by white, 37.9% by black, 29% are unknown.
13-16 year olds see 125 murders who are white and 188 who are black. Which is 38% white and 57% for black.
For 17-19 years olds it's 35% white and 62.5% black
For 20-24 year olds it's 36% white and 60.6% black
For 25-29 year olds it's 41% white and 55% black
For 30-34 year olds it's 49.6% white and 47.4% black
For 35-39 year olds it's 56.7% white and 38.6% black
For 40-44 year olds it's 60.3% white and 35.7% black
For 45-49 year olds it's 60.3% white and 35.7% black
For 50-54 year olds it's 63.4% white and 30.5% black
For 55-59 year olds it's 69% white and 28.1% black
You can see the pattern here.
Race - The Black Alone Population in the United States: 2012 - People and Households - U.S. Census Bureau
Table 1 (on excel) shows that up until 44 years of age aproximately, black people have a higher proportion of their population compared to white people. White people are more likely to be older.
So 20-24 years olds there 3.3 million and 12.3 million white people. So we're looking at nearly 4 white people aged 20-24 for every one black person. However clearly our murder offenders at this age are disproportionately black.
1,549 murders of 3.3 million people, so one murder for every 2130 black people.
918 murders of 12.3 million people, so one murder for every 13,398 white people.
Which is a massive difference.
But from 45-54 years old what do we have?
290 murders of 5.4 million people, so one murder for every 18620 white people
535 murder of 29.8 million people, so one murder for every 55700 white people
Still much higher for black people.
27.2% of black people in poverty, 9.9% for white people.
So the rate at which black people aged 45-54 murder is 2.99 higher than white people, per capita.
Based on poverty the rate is 2.7 black people in poverty for every white person.
The figures aren't that much different. It's what I expected to find.
The US poverty rate for black people is almost comparable to the murder rate for 45-54 year olds. Clearly there are a lot less murders.
If we look younger the stats are going to be a little bit out, because age brackets are not similar.
However we see nearly double the murders by black kids as by white kids. 452-800 yet there are 3.3 million kids aged 15-19 compared to 11 million white kids. So nearly three times higher. Which gives a rate of about 1 white murderer to 6 black murders at this age.
38.2% of black children are in poverty. Yes, 17-19 isn't necessarily child, but it's coming out of childhood and a point where childhood has a massive impact. This is compared to 12.4% of white kids. This is three times higher.
So why is the murder rate for this age group double poverty rates yet at the age of 45-54 it's about the same?
I think most people would point to gang violence, the type of area poor kids are living in.
If you look at chart 11 you see the types of family households that do exist.
28% of black people are married family households compared to 51.9% for white people. This is more than 2 times higher.
Inner-City Poverty in the United States
This is dated data, but it says 2% of all whites in poverty in 1980 were living in inner city ghettos, 21.1% of all blacks in poverty were living in ghettos.
This has a massive impact on the statistics. Kids growing up in inner city ghettos are far more likely to be involved in gangs, drugs and murder.
So it's hardly surprising that the crime figures are how they are.
Are black people more dangerous? Or are those who are born into inner city ghettos more dangerous and it just so happens many more black people are living in inner city ghettos with poor education, poor family life if any, poor skills for the future in the legitimate world and growing up seeing it's a white man's world?
Now the question is, if this is the case, what are people going to do about it?
