5 Facts That Shatter the Myth of ‘Black-on-Black’ CrimeC. Robert Gibson | December 29, 2015
The next time you hear someone say “black-on-black crime”, show them this.

Whenever a tragedy like the non-indictment of 12-year-old Tamir Rice’s killers happens, the racists inevitably come out to do battle with activists posting indignant Facebook statuses, eager to deflect attention to police officers killing black children to the specter of “black-on-black crime.”

However, “black-on-black crime” is a loaded term meant to enable racists, cementing the idea in people’s heads that the real problem isn’t the judicial system and law enforcement disproportionately targeting black people for arrest/incarceration/lethal force, but black people killing each other. It affirms the erroneous viewpoint that everyone has equal opportunity in society, and that the only reason black people are so disenfranchised is due to their own behavior.

Here are 5 facts that prove white-on-white crime is actually the real problem, and that anyone trying to make “black-on-black crime” a major issue is just a racist looking for positive reinforcement of their prejudiced worldview.

1. 84 PERCENT OF WHITE MURDER VICTIMS WERE WHITE
The FBI’s homicide statistics, rallying murders for the 28 years between 1980 and 2008, don’t lie. An overwhelming majority of homicides were carried out by white people, against other white people. Even though the ratio of black homicides against black victims is greater, the number of white murderers far exceeds the number of black murderers. The fact that no media outlet will say the words “white-on-white murder” despite this statistic shows a desire to bend words to confirm racist viewpoints.

FBI homicide statistics, 2011

2. WHITES KILL MORE WHITES THAN BLACK PEOPLE KILL EACH OTHER
In 2011, the most recent year for which data is available, 2,630 white people killed 3,172 white people, according to FBI homicide statistics. When comparing that to the black population, in which 2,447 African-Americans murdered 2,695 of their own, white-on-white murder is clearly the bigger issue.

3. WHITE PEOPLE COMMIT MORE CRIMES THAN ANY OTHER RACE
White people are the largest demographic in the United States, and as a result, commit more crimes than any other race, largely against other white people. 2010 crime statistics from the FBI confirm that whites lead blacks by 2-1 in arrests, and lead all other ethnicities by 2-1 in incidents of forcible rape (66.3 percent of rapes were committed by whites, while 31 percent were committed by blacks). White people also lead black people by 2-1 in larceny-theft: 64.8 percent of thieves are white, while only 31.9 percent of thieves are black.

4. WHITE PEOPLE KILL MORE MEMBERS OF VULNERABLE POPULATIONS THAN ANY OTHER RACE
Vulnerable populations are generally defined as children and the elderly. Family members and significant others are also often targets of homicide, rather than random victims. FBI homicide statistics from 1980 to 2008 show that white people are, by the numbers, far more likely to kill children and the elderly than any other race. Additionally, white people commit more sex-related and gang-related homicides than any other race.

FBI homicide statistics, 1980-2008

5. GANG MURDERS ARE MOST COMMON AMONG WHITE GANGS
While a lot of attention has been given to the gang-related homicides in Chicago’s predominantly-black South side, very little press has been devoted to covering the epidemic of white-on-white gangland murders. As the above chart demonstrates, the majority of gang-related homicides are committed by white people (53.3 percent white, 42.2 percent black), and the majority of white gang murder victims are also white (56.5 percent white, 40 percent black). Have this fact handy the next time someone bemoans “black-on-black” gang violence.

There are charts in the original article: http://usuncut.com/black-lives-matter/black-on-black-crime/

Nix, those stats are as misleading as Briggs stats about cops killing more whites than blacks. How silly is it to compare numbers without specifying the percentages of whites vs. blacks in america?

1 out of x whites vs 1 out of x blacks, not 130 whites and 120 blacks. C'mon ... how can someone just ignore that.

I am in no way saying that blacks are worse than whites or vise versa, there are many other issues that may lead to more crime in different areas with specific races but lets not through numbers out there that are blatantly misleading.

mreinman has a valid point here IMHO, sorry to say nix.

Adding skewable data to an argument based on faulty assumptions is pointless. It's BRIGGS' faulty assumptions and bad logic that I'm trying to attack... over and over. Of course I get a direct response when I drop the N word... Alinsky tactics! Maybe he'll actually finally respond to the first page of this thread.

Or we'll just get a link about a black-on-black shootout in a chicken shack somewhere and how it's Obama's fault and how it makes cops so scared!

I will say that it wasn't my best set of examples but my point still stands that most of the time people mention Black on Black crime as if it's something unique when in fact it's just normal for people of the same race to have high contact with each other and thus the majority of crimes are within their own race. So it's not inaccurate to point out that White on White Crime is no different than Black on Black crime rates. They're both higher than cross racial crime. The Black on Black thing is a ruse that racists use.

whats the % of black on black crime vs. white on white? Also, one would need to factor in that there are many more whites so of course there will be many more white victims. Again, not a judgement, just pointing out that your comment is still stating things without context.

I would say that in poor lower class (in earnings) neighborhoods there will of course be much more crime.

There are many other factors such as religion and extremism. How many jew on jew murders do you see, or muslim on muslim crime do you see in the US?

I am sure that destitute white neighborhoods have very high crime rates as well. There are many factors to consider.

The percentage of incarcerated black men are extremely high % wise and that is not because they are black obviously. Its the broken system that we have that limits the options of poor minorities.

You think that would make any difference? You think these kids would be watching what politicians say and give a flip? The violence is ridiculous but they aren't doing this in Tulsa because that Police Dept. released the video immediately. In NC they just passed a law that blocks the release of Videos to the public. It's not in effect yet but you can see how this would have a calming effect if they had let the public see what really happened. They do it wrong in NC as they do a lot of things wrong in that state.

These are criminals period

I don't condone the riots. But what do you expect? No justice no peace. African Americans get locked up or murdered regardless if criminal or not. What should the ones doing the rioting fear when the outcome will be the same regardless?

Also noticed not one comment by you over Terrance Crutcher shooting.

Newyork

this is what the female police officer said. "Shelby believed that when Crutcher attempted to reach into the car, he was retrieving a weapon, Wood said. In her interview with homicide detectives, she said, "I was never so scared in my life as in that moment right then," according to Wood.

Go check back in anothjer post about 4 months ago. I said this police stuff is "fear based". I do not believe for one second this lasy left her house this morning intentionally wanting to kill anyone. This man was UI not following direct police officers and walking to his car. The shooting was fear based--she became fearful. Im sure in her heart she didnt want to do what she did--is Trump right did she choke? maybe she did--maybe she wasnt fit for the job. But lets change positions with her--the guy was under the influence kept sticking hisn hand into his pocket and walking away from her when she simply said stop--and said it more than 10 times. Im not condoning this--somoene died but just like Michael Brown who threatened to kick the **** out of a store owner while robbing him and then going after a police officers gun--these people have a hand in their own deaths. and FEAR from the police and you can hear it--FEAR is a HUGE factor. I dont think the majority of cops dislike any creed--but I DO believe they are for the most part SCARED and afraid of AA--

I believe her that she was scared. I can't really back that up with facts just my gut reaction. But that's not a valid excuse given the circumstances. The man wasn't a suspect in any crime. Nobody called the police on him. His car just happen to break down in the middle of the road. There were 4 officers present. The man had his hands up walking away from the officers. He was tasered 2 seconds prior which was extreme but at least would have possibly prevented his death.

There was a study shown which I have to double check but I'm at work. On how police are trained on shooting to kill like 80% of the time compared to other training. Shooting to kill while ignoring tobeshaust all other possible actions its due to training. Fear rose in her because she wasn't confident or experienced in procedure.

It seems to me most female cops just tag along. Don't think I ever saw one go mano on mano with a real criminal but thats the politically correct world we live in.

The problem is people protest, loot, injure and kill even when the cops were justified. It divides the country and only illegitimizes incidents like this one too many people.

The girl screaming on TV about how she fears for her life at the hands of white cops everyday last night was out of her mind. Not a week goes by here in Newark without a black on black shooting death. Sometimes a poor young black kid walking home from school gets caught in a crossfire in drive by shooting between rival gangs. Like in other cities like Chicago I'm sure civilians fear criminals much more than they fear the police.

I've lost faith in all humanity especially a good portion of Americans. Nothing phases me anymore and I really don't give a **** about anyone but myself. Complete 180 from the person I used to be. I can only worry about myself. I really don't care what happens around me. Just stay out of my way

So it's not inaccurate to point out that White on White Crime is no different than Black on Black crime rates. They're both higher than cross racial crime. The Black on Black thing is a ruse that racists use.

whats the % of black on black crime vs. white on white? Also, one would need to factor in that there are many more whites so of course there will be many more white victims. Again, not a judgement, just pointing out that your comment is still stating things without context.

I would say that in poor lower class (in earnings) neighborhoods there will of course be much more crime.

There are many other factors such as religion and extremism. How many jew on jew murders do you see, or muslim on muslim crime do you see in the US?

I am sure that destitute white neighborhoods have very high crime rates as well. There are many factors to consider.

The percentage of incarcerated black men are extremely high % wise and that is not because they are black obviously. Its the broken system that we have that limits the options of poor minorities.

We should note that we are stuck in the weeds about percentages. Next we'll be talking about Al Sharpton's Win Shares.

Remember how we got here:

cops are scared of AA and I believe that is why you see incidents that you see. If they are so willing to kill each other--than why shouldn't everyone else be wary--especially police?

In other words — a bit hyperbolic to stress the point — they are such a savage people, the crime they commit scares people whose jobs wouldn't exist if crime didn't exist. And there is something unique about "black on black" crime that makes it have power over the heart of the average police officer over any other kind of crime. So much, you gotta understand a little extrajudicial killing here and there.

Can we please deal with the faulty assumptions of BRIGGS and not flop around in bar charts? Hyperbole aside, I think I am being more fair to BRIGGS posts than he is with Obama's record IMHO.

(The funny thing is that saying "cops are scared of AA" speaks to my kid watching kung fu story... may be true... but then aren't you describing implicit bias?!? you are one step away from BLM!!!)

Of course I'm also happy to get back to all the problems in the OP.

just called them out because they were misreporting.

And lets not forget this quote:

“There is nothing more painful to me at this stage in my life than to walk down the street and hear footsteps... then turn around and see somebody white and feel relieved.”

Jesse Jackson

What would you want him to say or do? The Republicans are always shouting about State's Rights but when ISH goes down they go right to the big government.

Get the F off the street or the army is coming

You think that would make any difference? You think these kids would be watching what politicians say and give a flip? The violence is ridiculous but they aren't doing this in Tulsa because that Police Dept. released the video immediately. In NC they just passed a law that blocks the release of Videos to the public. It's not in effect yet but you can see how this would have a calming effect if they had let the public see what really happened. They do it wrong in NC as they do a lot of things wrong in that state.

These are criminals period

I don't condone the riots. But what do you expect? No justice no peace. African Americans get locked up or murdered regardless if criminal or not. What should the ones doing the rioting fear when the outcome will be the same regardless?

Also noticed not one comment by you over Terrance Crutcher shooting.

Newyork

this is what the female police officer said. "Shelby believed that when Crutcher attempted to reach into the car, he was retrieving a weapon, Wood said. In her interview with homicide detectives, she said, "I was never so scared in my life as in that moment right then," according to Wood.

Go check back in anothjer post about 4 months ago. I said this police stuff is "fear based". I do not believe for one second this lasy left her house this morning intentionally wanting to kill anyone. This man was UI not following direct police officers and walking to his car. The shooting was fear based--she became fearful. Im sure in her heart she didnt want to do what she did--is Trump right did she choke? maybe she did--maybe she wasnt fit for the job. But lets change positions with her--the guy was under the influence kept sticking hisn hand into his pocket and walking away from her when she simply said stop--and said it more than 10 times. Im not condoning this--somoene died but just like Michael Brown who threatened to kick the **** out of a store owner while robbing him and then going after a police officers gun--these people have a hand in their own deaths. and FEAR from the police and you can hear it--FEAR is a HUGE factor. I dont think the majority of cops dislike any creed--but I DO believe they are for the most part SCARED and afraid of AA--

I believe her that she was scared. I can't really back that up with facts just my gut reaction. But that's not a valid excuse given the circumstances. The man wasn't a suspect in any crime. Nobody called the police on him. His car just happen to break down in the middle of the road. There were 4 officers present. The man had his hands up walking away from the officers. He was tasered 2 seconds prior which was extreme but at least would have possibly prevented his death.

There was a study shown which I have to double check but I'm at work. On how police are trained on shooting to kill like 80% of the time compared to other training. Shooting to kill while ignoring tobeshaust all other possible actions its due to training. Fear rose in her because she wasn't confident or experienced in procedure.

It seems to me most female cops just tag along. Don't think I ever saw one go mano on mano with a real criminal but thats the politically correct world we live in.

The problem is people protest, loot, injure and kill even when the cops were justified. It divides the country and only illegitimizes incidents like this one too many people.

The girl screaming on TV about how she fears for her life at the hands of white cops everyday last night was out of her mind. Not a week goes by here in Newark without a black on black shooting death. Sometimes a poor young black kid walking home from school gets caught in a crossfire in drive by shooting between rival gangs. Like in other cities like Chicago I'm sure civilians fear criminals much more than they fear the police.

I've lost faith in all humanity especially a good portion of Americans. Nothing phases me anymore and I really don't give a **** about anyone but myself. Complete 180 from the person I used to be. I can only worry about myself. I really don't care what happens around me. Just stay out of my way

Since you are so concerned about black on black crime, how about helping us out and voting against legislators who help push guns on our streets with gun lookholes..

It's a ****ty, dishonorable way IMHO and they are betraying the cause of people who think you can solve this politically with non-violence like I do. It's short-sighted and stupid and I condemn it morally and tactically. But I will never treasure property over people.

So I disagree.
