The FBI released its official crime tally for 2016 today, and the data flies in the face of the rhetoric that professional athletes rehearsed in revived Black Lives Matter protests over the weekend. Nearly 900 additional blacks were killed in 2016 compared with 2015, bringing the black homicide-victim total to 7,881. Those 7,881 “black bodies,” in the parlance of Ta-Nehisi Coates, are 1,305 more than the number of white victims (which in this case includes most Hispanics) for the same period, though blacks are only 13 percent of the nation’s population. The increase in black homicide deaths last year comes on top of a previous 900-victim increase between 2014 and 2015.
Who is killing these black victims? Not whites, and not the police, but other blacks. In 2016, the police fatally shot 233 blacks, the vast majority armed and dangerous, according to the Washington Post. The Post categorized only 16 black male victims of police shootings as “unarmed.” That classification masks assaults against officers and violent resistance to arrest. Contrary to the Black Lives Matter narrative, the police have much more to fear from black males than black males have to fear from the police. In 2015, a police officer was 18.5 times more likely to be killed by a black male than an unarmed black male was to be killed by a police officer. Black males have made up 42 percent of all cop-killers over the last decade, though they are only 6 percent of the population. That 18.5 ratio undoubtedly worsened in 2016, in light of the 53 percent increase in gun murders of officers—committed vastly and disproportionately by black males. Among all homicide suspects whose race was known, white killers of blacks numbered only 243.

Don’t bother anyone with the facts; even if those facts do not support the claim.
It is not about truth or justice, but it is firmly about destruction of the US constitution and the representative republican form of government required therein.
It is about external and internal forces that desire to break the US’ will and ability to live peaceably according to the rule of law in exchange for chaos and destruction.
Whom do yo think may be the author of that?
The left cares not for facts. You just confuse their little minds.
This is a shake down for more money.
“Hate Facts” ...
Killed by liberal policies. Most of these
particular/exactly chromosomed individuals would not have
been born had not liberal welfare made it a job option to
breed for your bread and allowed for the destruction of
family values leading to reduced adherence to God’s Law for
marriage and virtuous lives of the now never to be
chromosomed child of wedlock. Wrong genes; wrong
posterity.
Race relations would have been much better.
Blacks would respect fellow blacks.
Communists ruin everything.
You try reciting these facts on a college campus today and you be brutally assaulted; that’s the state of free speech in this country. It only applies if you’re an NFL football player.
The Left and the race baiting activists absolutely do not care about actual facts. They will continue to spout their false narrative even though the leadership knows it is a complete lie.
This narrative is so worn out it’s stupid. There are a disproportionate number of blacks killed by police because blacks engage in illegal activities at a disproportionately high rate. In a gun control debate once between Orin Hatch (anti-gun control) and Jesse Jackson (Pro-control), Hatch finally said: “If we remove the murders committed by black males between the ages of 17 and 35, the US would have a lower murder rate than Switzerland.” Jesse’s response: crickets. Liberals won’t allow you to talk about the facts and will yell you down as a racist if you quote such facts. Time to ignore the invectives and start making the facts public.
The issue is never the issue
The issue is always the Revolution.
Facts = truth. And TRUTH is the new HATE SPEECH.
,,,,,,, don’t forget abortion which claims 72% of black births . It’s government protected legal genocide of a class of people .
I doubt that facts like this will ever be reported by the MSM.
Hey you little sh*ts running the NFL - check this out... -

Good statistics! Thanks!
Heather MacDonald is a real hero of mine, as is Pamela Gellar. I can’t imagine how much personal danger they face by speaking the truth.
None of those facts actually matter. The facts have been accepted as the normality of black urban life and therefore acceptable.
There is no hue and cry for change to the accepted situation.
I’m guessing most don’t know why they are taking a knee in the first place.
so the truth wouldn’t matter anyway
