...Blacks were also at greater risk of rape or sexual assault...A misleading story. AFP no doubt was aware that US Justice reports that virtually all rapes of black women are by black men. Also, the AFP ignores a much more important story; despite being a 13% minority, black men account for most rapes. There is a segment of black men that are criminal and severely disturbed out of proportion to the general population. Address this and the US will be a much safer society.

Most murder victims -- 93 percent of blacks and 85 percent of whites -- were killed by someone of their own race.

Most murder victims -- 93 percent of blacks and 85 percent of whites -- were killed by someone of their own race. This too is a bit misleading. As a 13% minority would expect to have only 13% of murders committed by their same race (all else being equal).

1)
African-Americans are victims of nearly half the murders committed in the United States despite making up only 13 percent of the population, a report published Thursday showed.2) Around 8,000 of nearly 16,500 murder victims in 2005, or 49 percent, were black Americans
3) Most murder victims -- 93 percent of blacks and 85 percent of whites -- were killed by someone of their own race

We need to see "hispanic" backed out of the numbers to see what "traditional Americans" are up to.
The way this is being done a "black hispanic" is reported as just "black", so the burden of being a criminal (or a victim) falls on the traditional "black" census category.
The result is to make the black man look much worse than the reality supports.
I think that's a complaint you will hear every now and then, and it's a serious one. I really don't understand why Gonzales wants to continue to pile calumny on black men by keeping the real numbers secret.

Is it just me that thinks that, on average, blacks may live in bad neighborhoods?

These figures are sure to skyrocket thanks to the “don’t snitch” attitude that’s developed in da hood.

I think I can guess, but I’d love to see the numbers for liberal, anti-gun cities...

Why put it in context when it doesn’t fit you’re agenda? The headline makes it seem as though other races are attacking blacks. The problem is cultural. Glorification of the ‘thug’ life. But that would be an honest assessment so they just stick with the helpless perpetual victim angle instead of the truth, which can only benefit those designated as victims here.

Look at prison statistics sometime. Blacks are imprisoned at a higher rate than any other group, including Hispanics. Here in NJ, they are well over 50% of those in prison, although they are only 14% of the population statewide.
You must be from California. I always find Calipornians to be the most in denial about the crime rates around native born black Americans.
Look at the cities with the highest crime rates in the country (Camden, Detroit, East St. Louis) and show me the "hispanic crime wave" that is in those cities. (Crickets chirping).

Doesnt discovering and then disclosing this information make you a racist these days? This information may be considered a hate crime...soon. This is not an indictment of Black Americans. Black Americans are more preyed upon by this criminal element than others. Recognition is the first step to developing a solution. Ignoring this information is to let the disaster continue.
