What percent of that 13% lives in poverty and how does that compare to crimes committed by whites that live in poverty?CitadelGrad wrote: ↑Mon Aug 17, 2020 7:07 amWell, they can start with ones that are particularly heinous, as the execution of a 5-yr old boy. Then maybe the 50% of murders committed by 13% of the population. There is no need to report nationally on each murder, but failing to address the propensity of a minority population to commit murder and other violent crimes, is journalistic negligence.

Perhaps people who are prone to violence and enjoy violence do not possess the attributes necessary to keep themselves out of poverty.

How come I've never encountered that with African Americans in a professional environment? I've seen plenty of whites that are prone to violence and enjoy violence and do not possess the attributes necessary to keep themselves out of poverty.CitadelGrad wrote: ↑Mon Aug 17, 2020 7:19 amOh, I see.

I also have seen whites who are prone to violence and do not possess the attributes necessary to keep themselves out of poverty. Thanks for making my point.
The numbers are what they are. 13% of the population (actually less than that if you normalize for children and women who tend to not commit a great deal of violent crime) account for 50% of murders and other violent crimes.

Re: Gorillas In The Mist - The Official Thread
There are approx 48,000,000 blacks in the USA, and approx 16,000 homicides, if blacks account for half, that's 8000 not counting multiple murders by 1 person. How many of those 8000 out of 48,000,000 live in poverty? Hardly evidence of a group you say are prone to violence and enjoy violence.CitadelGrad wrote: ↑Mon Aug 17, 2020 7:58 amI don't know.

Comparitively far more prone than other ethnicities. Anyway, it isn't just murders, but approx. 50% of all violent crime.

Re: Gorillas In The Mist - The Official Thread
Looking at the FBI database on homicides for 2018, there were 5723 total. 2509 white on white, 2245 black on black. Black killers were 39% of the total, not 50%. If you are living in the poverty area's of the inner city, there is a greater chance of a person becoming mixed up in drugs, gangs and the violent world that comes with it. Take the same person as a child to a good suburb or small town, and they grow up in a whole new world, away from the violence of the poverty stricken inner city.CitadelGrad wrote: ↑Mon Aug 17, 2020 12:49 pmComparitively far more prone than other ethnicities.

Re: Gorillas In The Mist - The Official Thread
I'm sure drugs and gangs are related to some that live in the inner city. According to the statistics, it's about 2-1 whites that live in poverty compared to blacks. Whites are spread throughout the country, while the larger populations of blacks are in the south and larger cities. I would also assume it's much easier to live near the poverty level in North Dakota compared to New York City, due to the cost of living expenses.89Hen wrote: ↑Mon Aug 17, 2020 2:12 pmPoverty is an issue but not the only one. 10% of whites live in poverty, 20% black.

Compare black on black crime and black on white violent crime rates to white on white and white on black rates. You will easily see that, comparitively, there is a tremendous propensity for violence among blacks, especially black males from 16-35. Differences in poverty rates don't even come close to explaining the variances in violent crime rates.

So you are saying a black child growing up in rural North Dakota has the same chance of growing up in a violent neighborhood as a black child growing up in a gang infested neighborhood? You are telling me surroundings mean nothing? Yet we have over 40 million African American's making a great living in American along with other ethnicities.
