Then, "Likewise, the primary victims of violent crime are in the African American and Hispanic communities. These people want LAW AND ORDER now!"Thank you, Donald Trump, for telling me what I want as a black woman. All this time I thought I wanted less police brutality and an end to racism and prejudicial practices in the legal system. Come to find out, what Ireally want is law and order.But he's absolutely right. I love that show.
and then you have the judge in Texas under investigation who says that black and brown people are predisposed to crime

So, what's your point? Everyone knows white people commit crime. All races commit crime. Does that some how excuse the elephant in the room of urban black on black violence responsible for more deaths than in some war zones?Originally posted by Tropicana
It's easy to excuse what the Donald says, because the Donald is always saying something stupid, but there is a very big problem in US cities that is predominately a black problem. Homicide is the #1 cause of death of young black males by other young black males. In contrast, young white males are not killing each other in record numbers as are young black males. Facts are facts supported by an dead body count.Comment

according to the FBI's stats about half the murder victims in the US are black (2011 stats)
Interestingly there were about twice as many white women killed than black women.
To use a well used numbers play: there were 4 times as many white women killed in the US than US military killed in Afghanistan that year ....When its hot in the jungle of peace I go swimming in the ocean of love.....Comment

Interesting stats Rich, can you post a link to the source? I can't seem to find the numbers broken down from gender to race. Or what perpetrator by race was responsible for the actual murders of the women.Originally posted by RichD View Post
I did find this...
A 2007 special report released by the Bureau of Justice Statistics, reveals that approximately 8,000 — and, in certain years, as many as 9,000 African Americans are murdered annually in the United States. This chilling figure is accompanied by another equally sobering fact, that 93% of these murders are in fact perpetrated by other blacks. The analysis, supported by FBI records, finds that in 2005 alone, for example, African Americans accounted for 49% of all homicide victims in the US — again, almost exclusively at the hands of other African Americans.
To put these number in perspective, recall that over 6,400 U.S. service men and women have been killed in Iraq and Afghanistan combined over the course of a decade-long war fought in those nations. During the Vietnam War, which lasted nearly 13 years, some 58,000 Americans were killed — nearly 13 percent of whom were African American
Equally as startling, the same study reveals African Americans were victims of an estimated 805,000 nonfatal violent crimes in just one year alone.
What’s more, blacks comprise roughly 12.5 percent of the U.S. population.

Sue, would like to see the statistics on your comment. The truth will set us all free.Originally posted by Suesumba View Postwhite men only love killing their women and children
According to the American Journal of Public Health, a white woman married to a black man is over 12 times as likely to be murdered by her husband as a white woman married to a white man (ncbi.nlm.nih.gov). Even more startling: a white man married to a black woman is 21 times as likely to be murdered by his wife as a white man married to a white woman. Still, the highest risk of death by spousal homicide is incurred by white women married to black men.
Furthermore, murder “is the leading cause of death in the United States among young African American women aged 15 to 45 years and the seventh leading cause of premature death among women overall” (ncbi.nlm.nih.gov). The elevated rate among black women is largely due to black women dating and marrying black men almost exclusively; for example, in 2009, 94% of married black women had black husbands (nytimes.com).
Child Abuse: According to statistics published in Pediatrics, the official journal of the American Academy of Pediatrics, “[c]ases of child abuse and neglect that involve black children are reported to and substantiated by public child welfare agencies at a rate approximately twice that of cases that involve white children” (aappublications.org).
Furthermore, their findings “suggest that racial bias in reporting and in the child welfare system are not large-scale drivers of racial disproportionality.” The disparity in reporting rates is due to a disparity in commission rates: black parents are about twice as likely to abuse their children as white parentsComment

Most white collar crimes are committed by whites against fellow whites. Does this mean that there is a problem EXCLUSIVLY in the "white community" that needs to be addressed?

White women who marry a black husband increase their chances of being a victim of spousal homicide by 12.4 times.
In the report, “Fatal Violence among Spouses in the United States, 1976-85,” by James A. Mercy and Linda E. Saltzman, spousal homicide is examined along racial lines. Click Here for PDF.

Rich, I did not do the math, but l would not think these two people have any agenda and would put thier PHD credentials and reputation at risk by posting faulty numbers.
