If Black people raised a fuss about the high levels of Black on Black murders then they would have to take personal responsibility for their own actions. It's much easier to blame White people for the much rarer occurrence of White on Black deaths.
You mean escalate the fuss that is already being made. That could work but exactly who would be listening and what would it change? Do you think am escalated esp point would change the minds of those that need changing? Do hard core killer types respond to that sort of thing?
Who is going around blaming a bunch of random white people for shoe on black deaths?
the blacks in those neighborhoods that keep murdering people probably wouldn't/don't discriminate
its just that if you live amongst blacks and you like to solve issues by killing someone, chances are the person killed will be black
probably should figure out how to instill the concept of life being precious into everyones mind then perhaps people wont think of other people as being disposable items
Sharpton, Jackson, and the rest of them understand that Blacks that commit crimes on anyone know that those Blacks are investigated, charged, tried, and if convicted- incarcerated.
Maybe Sharpton, Jackson, and the rest of them are worried bout those that kill blacks who face no prosecution.
Is it? Do you know any white people who have been murdered? I don't. But I knew a few black people who have been murdered.
Why do you need to know people? The FBI keeps the numbers on a handy online site. The reason people get on black folks is these numbers. There is a focus on proportion, as if people would be ok with black murder if only the trayis were closer to white murder. Personally, I'd like to strive to reach the numbers of Asians but white people, who point fingers at black people, seem content with being high but not the highest.

The murder rate among white Americans is quite low. I'm not sure what makes you think that it's high.
My own theory is that crimes are manifested in "your own" neighborhood first. It's your immediate neighbors where conflicts and arguments start. Who's in what gang, who shot or stabbed who last Saturday night etc..
Ever watch Boyz In The Hood? That explains it very very well in great detail.

I didn't say rate. I said numbers period. If you're ok with thousands of people being killed each year then that's you. I'm not.
