So much of the current political discussion in this Country is about violence in our communities. The event in Charlotte, Chicago, Washington, and many other major cities where violent crime is out of control. What is not being discussed, what is ignored, is race. In most of these cities black men are the overwhelming perpetrators of the violence.
Blacks are 12.5% of the U.S. Population and yet commit 54% of the violent crime according to the FBI. Violent crime is defined as rape, murder, aggravated assault, and armed robbery.
And let's be fair, it is not black women that are committing these crimes, it is mostly young black men. And let me be clear:
Facts are not racist. Blacks have a massive problem with violence in their community, particularly black men.
Key Quote: "Overall, black Americans are arrested at 2.6 times the per-capita rate of all other Americans, and this ratio is even higher for murder (6.3 times) and robbery (8.1 times)."
Blacks need to take responsibility for the violence in their community. This is not racism. It is not the Justice system. This is mostly young black men making the decision to hurt other human beings violently. I am tired of the excuses and the white-washing by the media, academia, and progressive whites. The violence has to stop. Black men, you own this. What are you going to do about it?
