13 % of the population ..52 % of the crime (ethical, drugs, crime rate, compared)

Don't commit crime, don't go to jail.

Not committing crime is an easy thing to do, in my case anyway. Not being looked down because of your race, that is actually harder. You can control yourself, you can't control what someone else thinks of you.

Let me help you here, the FBI data is for the number of arrests and contains information for crime rates by specific type and total crimes.

in 2015 Blacks were arrested for 51.1% of homicides, When considering all reported crime, whites were arrested for 69.7% of all crimes, while blacks were arrested for 26.6%
https://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s...ables/table-43

The vast majority of homicides committed by blacks involve a black victim, just as most white homicide victims are killed by a white person. https://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s...ender_2015.xls

It's always a good idea to fact check stuff like this before you post.

I would think about the word "purge".

Crime statistics certainly don't do Blacks any favors. That said, painting the picture of "Blacks are coming after the whole nation", using this Godzilla portrayal isn't accurate. The murders, most of it is Blacks being murdered by Blacks. I notice only Black criminals get attention, seldom do Black victims get attention. It all boils down to "we hate Blacks and we look for a justification for it. Crime is one". These attitudes are nothing new, and date back to 1800.

Some people just like to commit more crime. That's their thing I guess.

Actually with most people you can control how they think of you.

Or it could be one part of that particular population committing the crime, while the rest of the Black population is trying to live their lives. Ever thought of that? Yes or No? And this isn't a rhetorical question.

Whites are about 63% of the US so the proportion of crimes is almost equal. However the proportion of homicide is egregious in the black community when considering the proportion of total population. All crime is inexcusable.

And I don't hate blacks so that is not pertinent.

I'm looking at the numbers here and your math simply doesn't work.

In the FBI’s Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program, violent crime is composed of four offenses: murder and nonnegligent manslaughter, rape, robbery, and aggravated assault

2015 UCR data % of blacks arrested by crime type
Homicide /Manslaughter....51.1%
Rape..............................28.2%
Robbery..........................53.5%
Aggravated Assault...........32.1%

It would really help if you would fact check this stuff
