Worse thing since civil war...
Killing of Harambe, I guess.
First, here is the racial breakdown of the Minneapolis population from the 2010 census:
White: 63.8 percent
Black: 18.6 percent
American Indian: 2.0 percent
Asian: 5.6 percent
Two or more races: 4.4 percent
Hispanic (of any race): 10.5 percent
As usual with government statistics, Hispanics are said to be of “any race,” which is why the total comes to 110 percent. Please note that in the pie charts below, there is no category for Hispanics. Most are probably classified as “white,” but lumping whites and Hispanics together makes it impossible to draw conclusions about crime rates for either group. This stupid practice has gone on for decades.
Here are the numbers for homicide with a firearm:
Here are the numbers for homicide, rape, robbery, and aggravated assault combined:
Here are the numbers for non-fatal shootings:
Here are the numbers for homicide, rape, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary, larceny, auto theft, and arson put together.
As these pie charts show, violent crime in Minneapolis is overwhelmingly black — even though blacks are not even 20 percent of the population. A simple calculation of proportions shows that blacks are 16 times more likely than non-blacks to kill someone with a gun. (It is not possible to make a direct comparison with whites because we can’t tell whites from Hispanics.) They are 9.7 times more likely than non-blacks to commit an aggregate of the most violent crimes: homicide, robbery, rape, and aggravated assault.
