    The majority of gun violence is committed by blacks. They commit SO much gun violence that if you change our population statistics to make the amount of our black population comparable to that of other first world nations then we would have a comparable rate of gun violence to every other first world nation. We don't have a gun problem, we have a black problem.

    And it's not just gun violence but it's ALL violence. Blacks represent less than 14% of our total population and yet they commit 52% of our total murder and 33% of our total rape. In fact they are overrepresented in literally EVERY category of violent crime that we keep track of. Whereas not ONE other race is overrepresented in even ONE category of violent crime. We don't have a violence problem in this country. We have a black problem.

    So what race rapes the 67% and commits about the other half of the murders? Seems to be an American problem.

    We EXPECT for there to be a certain level of ANY behavior within society and distinct to different groups. However what we expect is for those numbers to be comparable to what their percentage of the total population is.

    For instance whites represent approximately 65% of the total population. As such, we would expect them to represent approximately 65% of the total rape. But in fact they represent LESS than 65% making them UNDERrepresented.

    But what we see with blacks is that they represent 14% of the total population and yet they commit 33% of our total rape. They're vastly overrepresented. And it's not just rape but they're overrepresented in regards to EVERY violent crime.

    That's a problem. And it's one that is unique to the black population.

    The sad fact is that blacks are a small percentage of the American population but commit a very large percentage of the crime.

    I guess stormdildoes.com is having server problems today ...

    Doesn't matter if some black Americans commit crimes. The majority do not. They are nurses and doctors and firemen. They are the cop who risks his life to pull you out of a burning car. They find your missing child. They serve in our military. They are professors. They are elderly care. They are CEOs of Fortune 500 companies. They pay taxes. They are American citizens.

    So please - take your bigoted crap and go back to stormdildoes.com.

    Well another group commits 70% of the crime, but we should be concerned with the smaller percentage because of population? The women raped by non blacks may strongly disagree with this minimization via per capita angle.

    And the percentage of black Americans who commit violent crime is a very small percentage of the total population of black Americans. Why is that so hard for you to understand?

    Combining all of the mass shootings by white people in the last 10 years doesn't add up to 1 year of violence in Chicago alone. You want to try again?

    Umm, no. What you are doing though is minimizing crimes from one group by highlighting crimes from another group. People who care to talk about crime will zoom out and look at all the factors and not just race.

    What does that have to do with the ABSURD level of violent crime blacks commit.

    Oh and by the way Hispanic sand whites and asians are all of those things too. And guess what, they don't commit an ABSURD level of violent crime to go along with it.

    nice dodge, but what was the answer to my question "what race does most of the mass shootings?"

    I agree the war on drugs causes gangs and thus much violence

    Ummm no isn't a valid rebuttal. And what factors exactly make the black population so much more prone to violence?

    Take your flag and racism and go off into a dark corner somewhere and drink some Jonestown Kool-Aid.

    White people. Now even when they're added into the statistics it doesn't make a dent in the incredible level of violent crime committed by blacks. So how about you take your red herring somewhere that it's applicable.

    And they're a MASSIVE part of our violent crime problem. In fact they ARE our violent crime problem.

    Is this hard to understand?

    According to the Bureau of Justice Statistics, one in three black men can expect to go to prison in their lifetime

    Notice they'll call me racist all day. What they won't do is refute the point made... because they can't.

    Theoretically If you removed black males from the population you would get rid of 6% of the total population and drop violent crime by 50%.

    That's a problem. Whether you liberal SJWs admit it or not doesn't matter.

    So we're reduced to the leading/loading question fallacy? Lol. Do you even care about victims of violent crime? Why focus on one group and not all the individuals who commit violent crime especially since the group you're focused on doesn’t commit the most violent crimes?

    Because we don't know which one of those individuals is going to commit the violent crime. What we DO know however is that an individual within that group is FAR more likely to commit a violent crime than a white or Hispanic or Asian person.... or any other race for that matter.

    I mean we have gangs and choirs. Both are groups and both have members who have committed violent crimes in the past. But we don't focus on choirs while we do focus on gangs. Why? Because the likelihood someone in a gang will commit violence is MUCH higher than someone in a choir.

    Most for non-violent crimes. And the number of black women arrested has been dropping while white women who are convicted have been rising.
    So you are basically condemning all black Americans for actions that 80% of them do not engage in. That is a bigoted conclusion on your part.

    We know that white Americans are far more likely to engage in securities fraud - since we don't know which ones will, according to your logic, we have to ban all white males from trading on Wall Street or managing banks.

    Then, using your logic, if we remove all white males from the the population you will see a drop in securities fraud, rapes and drunk driving deaths.
    We would also see a reduction of sexual predation crimes against minors. Guess you're going to have to leave.

    I like this post because you are giving a simple example of narrowing down. However, the tone in the OP seems to be a broad stroke against millions of people. We simply can't narrow down crime to race in this country. I wouldn't even argue if one group was virtually committing all the crimes, but that's simply not the case.
