I never said to ignore criminal behavior.
Not all black Americans engage in criminal behavior. Those are the Americans I want to join FR.
Going by the numbers you gave in post # 119:
White people killed 2594 whites, and 246 blacks — total of 2,840 people
Black people killed 2574 blacks, and 566 whites — total of 3,140 people
Despite being only 13% of population, it appears that blacks killed more people than the 70% of population who are white.
Seems significant...
Does that excuse the Whites who committed almost 5 million overall crimes recorded, while Blacks committed less than 2 million overall crimes recorded.
FBI Crime statistics BTW. Seems to me both groups have a crime problem, it’s not a one way street is it?
You can’t even do basic math….
Pathetic.
Show me your math work.
Sure thing. Do try to follow along.
Blacks are 12% of the US population and committed 2,000,000 crimes. Of that 47,000,000 about 3% of them commit the vast majority of crimes. 3 percent of 47,000,000 is 1.41 million. That works out to about 1.4 violent crimes per.
Whites number right around 232 million and committed around 5,000,000 crimes. Let’s assume that it’s around 3 percent of the white population committing violent crimes. It isn’t, but just for the sake of argument let’s do the math. 3 percent of 232,000,000 is is about 7,000,000. Now that works out to roughly 1.4 crimes per white person so they seem to be equivalent.
But once again that 3% of the black population commits over 50% of the violent crime so we need to divide the number of crimes white people commit in half. So If we now do the math it comes out that black people commit violent crimes at nearly twice the rate whose people do or .92 crimes per white person versus 1.4 crimes per white person.
Here’s the FBI table. Read it and weep.

Pretty simple, really. At least for someone who can do 6th grade math, anyway.

You posted last night….
“If the black population were magically transported en masse back to Mother Africa tomorrow the crime rate in the US would plummet to levels unseen in generations.”
Well In 2020 there were 7,632,470 total crimes recorded, 5,335,610 by Whites and 1,992,510 by Blacks. Almost 2 1/2 times more crime by Whites. The percent of population bs is just that, bs. 2.4% of Whites did crimes and 3.77 of Blacks did crime. Statistically insignificant really in the big picture. If there were 100 Million Black population I’d bet that 3.77% would still do crime. If there was 500 million White population about 2.4% would still do crime.
If Blacks were sent to Africa the overall offense rate would drop by 26%. If Whites were sent back to Europe the overall offense rate would drop by 70%. By which number then would America be better off? Would you like living here with no Blacks yet still allow Whites to commit 5 million crimes? Why do you seemingly excuse the 5 million White crimes? Both races have a serious crime problem and we should focus on that. Someone famous said “they want us divided by race”. Threads like this don’t help with that imho.
Nice chart, I posted it last night myself. Here is another from 2020 a bit easier to read.

Agreed. But some posters don’t care if it doesn’t help. Why? Look at some of the comments in this thread - when an entire race are being talked about in pejorative terms.
RE: 126 - Good grief.
“Blacks are 12% of the US population and committed 2,000,000 crimes”
That’s inaccurate. In 2019, Blacks were arrested for 1.815 million offenses
-see https://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s/2019/crime-in-the-u.s.-2019/tables/table-43
“Of that 47,000,000 about 3% of them commit the vast majority of crimes.”
Inaccurate again. The black population per the 2020 census was 37.94 million
-see https://www.census.gov/library/visualizations/interactive/racial-and-ethnic-diversity-in-the-united-states-2010-and-2020-census.html
“But once again that 3% of the black population commits over 50% of the violent crime so we need to divide the number of crimes white people commit in half.”
No they don’t and the data doesn’t show that at all.
Violent crimes are offenses of murder and nonnegligent manslaughter, rape, robbery, and aggravated assault.
- see Footnote 4 of Table 43A https://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s/2019/crime-in-the-u.s.-2019/tables/table-43
Of the 355,244 violent offenses charged in 2019, Whites were 59.07% of that total. Blacks were 36.41%.
- see https://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s/2019/crime-in-the-u.s.-2019/tables/table-43
Am glad to finally have busted the “3% of the black population commits over 50% of the violent crime” claim. It’s FALSE.
