A significant percentage of black men are in prison, on parole/probation, or awaiting trial. This perhaps does not include blacks engaging in criminal behavior who escape the justice system (26% of Chicago homicides last year were solved).

He even mentioned the particular crimes they would likely commit, by race. That would seem to exclude victims/family/friends.
