It's a fact that they don't, but I somewhat understand why some of you feel the need to try to turn it around on us. Because it would take a very understanding person to admit that their community has a problem, and actually want to address it.
no, it's a fact that YOU do.. and it's a shame you don't want to admit it.
I have no problem admitting some black communities have problems.
Why can't you?
What are you scared of? I thought it was all about persona responsibility?
First off.. violent crime has fallen off a cliff from the 90's to 2017.
I blame white people for killing each other. White on white crime is real and it's something you guys ignore far more than you want to admit because you have this weird obsession with Black on Black crime.
84% of whites murdered are murdered by another white person
Whites are more likely to kill children
whites rape at a much higher rate and don't report it at a much higher rate
White teachers rape students at a much higher rate
damn near every crime stat shows more whites being arrested for crimes like
Arson
Rape
murder (although its close)
aggravated assault
robbery
it's not even close. White people commit more violent crimes.
and please, look at the stats and try to twist the numbers if you like but you can't. It's a myth that Blacks are more violent. The reality is Blacks are shown more on the news but the news could easily balance things out if they wanted to but that's not what the news is for. The news exist to scare the pants off of people in their homes so we buy more stuff to fell safe.
Okay, I play along with the crime stats for 2010:
Crimes committed by whites: 7,066,154
Crimes committed by blacks: 2,846,862
"The overwhelming majority (97 percent) of the total U.S. population reported only one race in 2010. This group totaled 299.7 million. Of these, the largest group reported white alone (223.6 million), accounting for 72 percent of all people living in the United States. The black or African-American population totaled 38.9 million and represented 13 percent of the total population. "
In other words for 2010:
White people: 299,700,000
Black people: 39,900,000
Now let's do some math. Average crime rate per race:
White people: 7,066,154 / 299,700,000 x 100 = 2.35%
Black people: 2,846,862 / 39,900,000 x 100 = 7.13%
In other words, on average 2.35% of the white population commits a crime, whereas with the black population that number is 7.13%. This means the crime rate is 3 times as high in the black vs white communities.
Or: the whites are 72% of the population and are committing 68% of the crimes. The blacks are 13% of the population and are committing 28% of the crimes.

Now imagine if the cops actually spent more time in white areas arresting people?
Cops are going to spend more time in urban areas for obvious reasons but that's also part of the problem. Let's look at stop and frisk in NYC. Cops had to stop twice as many Black folks and sometimes 3 times and many Black folk to get the same number of drugs and guns as white folks. Point being. If cops in NYC stopped more white folks they would get much higher stats of drugs and gun possession.
It was never my argument that crime isn't a problem in some black communities. My point is white folks have a ton of crime as well and if the police focused more on white people the numbers would be higher because the stats show whites commit a nice amount of crime.
So maybe if folks stopped focusing on our issues and focused on their own we might get more crime off the streets.

Just quit with facts and math, they either don't get it, or don't care.
Denial and delusion. And now they have 40 chapters across the globe.
Although I wish it were true, the BLM member who said that Black communities are no more violent than other communities (in the US) doesn't know the facts unfortunately. There is no community in this country that loses more of it's demographic each year to senseless violence, not even Hispanics. Their murder rates numbers are higher amongst each other than Whites, Asians, and Middle Easterns but not as high as Black- on-Black violence.
What is even sadder is that many that are killed in that number were innocent people who were killed because the perpetrators just started shooting at their target without care or concern for the innocent men, women, and children around going about their business. Elderly or babies, it didn't and doesn't matter to them. Unfortunately, these evil people are protected by many in the community who get "offended" if the perpetrators are called out and the issue becomes diverted to "not all Black people are like that" which is true but shouldn't be used to divert the heat from the ones who are.
