Intra-racial crime.....from Grok:
======
Black Americans commit the most intra-racial violent crime (in absolute numbers and especially per capita).Most violent crime in the US is intra-racial (same-race victim and offender), particularly for homicide. This holds across FBI data (arrests/offenders) and BJS National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS, victim perceptions of offenders).Key Patterns from DataBJS NCVS (2012–2015, violent victimizations including rape/sexual assault, robbery, aggravated/simple assault):
Overall, ~51% of violent victimizations were intra-racial. Black-on-Black and White-on-White dominate due to population sizes and higher Black violent offending rates.FBI Expanded Homicide Data (2019, single victim/single offender murders — the most reliable intra-racial measure):
- White victims: 56.6% had White offenders (intra-racial).
- Black victims: 63.2% had Black offenders (intra-racial).
- Hispanic victims: 40.3% had Hispanic offenders (intra-racial; lower due to smaller group size and more mixing).
This pattern is consistent over decades: ~80–90%+ of Black homicides are intra-racial; ~80%+ for Whites. Black intra-racial homicide numbers are higher per capita by a large margin (often 7–8x White rates overall for homicide).
- White victims (total ~3,299 known offender): 2,594 killed by Whites (~79% intra-racial).
- Black victims (total ~2,906): 2,574 killed by Blacks (~89% intra-racial).
- Black-on-Black homicides vastly outnumber White-on-White in raw counts relative to population (Blacks ~13–14% of population but drive a disproportionate share of total murders).
This thread is not about interracial crime.
