Blacks commit more than half the murders in the US and specifically most of the perpetrators are young to middle age black males which are going to be about 3% of the population.

To put it another way if there is a murder there is 50% chance it will committed by a young to middle age black male.

Just to note since I haven't researched the numbers the 50% is probably more like 40% and the 3% is probably higher.

If you were to break it down by actual numbers, less than 1% of the young Black male population contributes to those murders. And the majority of the victims are also Black.

Former President Bush is a Methodist, so he is a Christian. Tell the truth. Does it disturb you that the current President isn't White?

Whites were very violent to blacks in the old days. Thousands of blacks lost there lives under the hand of the white man. I guess the tables have turned Where there was once unity in the black community there's now a bunch of Chaos..

Whenever the black community has came together and made progress in American history, there have been attempts to dismantle the Movement.

In the 30's and 40's it was opporessive laws. In the 60's and 70's black leaders were routinely assassinated or jailed and drugs were pushed into black communities.

I can attend a Hindu shrine for the cameras. That doesn't make me Hindu. GWB is not a Christian. End of story.
He is, in fact, half white.

Historically whitemen have always ran the White House but regarding "God fearing" that would depend on whose God that they are worshiping.

But if you really want to get specific, he is half white and half AFRICAN. There has yet to be a decendant of a slave or free blackman to occupy the White House and judging from the backlash that this president got BEFORE he was elected it will be along time before that actually happens.

He is a Christian if he believes that Jesus Christ is the son of God and has accepted Jesus as Lord and Savior.

Do you have any evidence to support an allegation that President Bush has not done so?
