What is the black crime rate? I want the number. Not the number for murder, but the total rate of crime.
Because there are 30 categories of crime listed in the Uniform Crime Report Arrest section. Annually whites are arrested at nearly triple the number than everybody else. Every year whites lead in 90 percent of the categories. And don't argue that per capita shit because if the populations were the same a whole lot of things that plague the black community now would not.
Show me the black crime rate.

Buddy, violent crime is out of control in the black community. And let's be honest, it is not black women, it is mostly young black men. So maybe take some responsibility and clean up your shit. If cops are still out of hand then it will be 100% on them. Pretty simple.
On August 15, 2013, The Center on Juvenile and Criminal Justice published a paper by Mike Males entitled, “Why the Gigantic, Decades-Long Drop in Black Youth Crime Threatens Major Interests.” The data was basically ignored, even by President Obama. But the implications of this study were so important that it was a dereliction of duty to not make this information widely known to the American public.
“For nearly all serious and minor offenses, including homicide, rates among black teenagers nationally were lower in 2011 than when racial statistics were first collected nationally in 1964. Black youths’ murder arrest rates are considerably lower today than back when Bill Cosby was funny (long, long ago).

I present this information in order to display just how members of this society have chosen to accept a fictional account of the country we live in. It has been accepted to such an extent that our police departments have become militarized despite a national decrease in crime. It is a lie so tough that innocent blacks posing no threat to anyone end up in funeral homes. Mike Males article provides evidence of how a racist society builds a strawman then tries turning that straw into skin and bones.
In the last 20 years in particular, the FBI reports, rates of crime among African American youth have plummeted: All offenses (down 47%), drug offenses (down 50%), property offenses (down 51%), serious Part I offenses (down 53%), assault (down 59%), robbery (down 60%), all violent offenses (down 60%), rape (down 66%), and murder (down 82%).”

What the article Males wrote did was expose an American pathology concerning race. Specifically, a white racist pathology that needs for there to be an “other” That “other” must always look different from what the so-called white “mainstream” deems to be normal. This applies to more areas than race, but since this book is about racism in 21st century America, I will apply what I am writing about to race.
There has consistently existed a space in white culture where people have believed in the inherent superiority and human perfection of the white race. Included in this space has been a belief in a natural propensity for violence in blacks. Where that belief came from can’t be based in reality. I am assuming since slaves tended to resist their enslavement that white slaveowners decided that since blacks actually enjoyed their enslavement, those who fought were just naturally prone to violence. Such an assumption sounds crazy, right?
It is crazy but that is what scientific racism taught. Today the remants of such madness continues in books such as “The Bell Curve”, studies such as, “The Color of Crime”, or in the belief that all black men are violent and dangerous. This belief has been maintained for so long that information such as what Males discovered remained outside of mainstream information. For example, when Males published his findings in 2013, he wrote: “FBI clearance and arrest tabulations now indicate black youths under age 18 account for just 2% of the nation’s homicides.” “How did America miss this?” You would think this would be cause for celebration.
I find it laughable what so called “conservatives,” claim the media does not cover. So while people like Limbaugh and most right wingers were letting sounds flow from their mouths that reflected long held racist opinions, young blacks were described by Males in this manner: “Today’s young African Americans display the lowest rates of crime and serious risk of any generation that can be reliably assessed.”
Ah....okay....maybe you don't understand basic math. Your post indicates both the per capita black and white crime rate has dropped. That's great.
However, what you are are missing is this. THE Black crime rate per capita is more than double that of whites. The black violent crime rate is triple that of whites. I think you understand this, but you don't want to accept it.
Sorry. I don't give a shit. Clean up your own house before you demand that I clean up mine. Thank you.
