I am not going to condemn a race of people because a few members of that race are murderers.
A (murder) has nothing to do with B (race).
However, if you want to use that logic, all the people listed below are White Male Serial Killers in the United States. This group of white men are responsible for the deaths of thousands of people.

Now, only a fool would conclude that race had anything to do with their being serial killers.
Thus, only a fool would conclude that being black had anything to do with these boys killing that poor little girl.
Only a fool would pretend that FBI crime stats - which show that blacks commit violent crimes at a rate seven to eight times that of whites - only a fool would pretend that reality is not reality.
Believe what you wish, but years of crime stats don’t lie. But according to you:
“Thus, only a fool would conclude that being black had anything to do with these boys killing that poor little girl.”
Because the robbers who broke into her house were black, the probability that they’d resort to murder was - according to years of statistics - about eight times greater than if they’d been white.
Only a fool would pretend otherwise. In moments of candor, few black folks make such pretensions.
If you realized that three guys were following you down the street, would you be more worried if they were black or white? Jesse Jackson gave his answer several years ago: he’d be relieved if the were white.
This is just reality in 21st Century America. Sorry you’re unable to deal with it.
And your long list of serial killers is just plain silly. If you added up all the victims of serial killers in US history, do you think they’d be equal to a couple of months’ totals of non-serial murderers?
Maybe next a list of ax murderers and their race?
School shooters?
All make spectacular news stories, but are a tiny, tiny fraction of all murders. If those were our only murders, we’d be a blessed nation.
I would conclude that race is a factor in serial killing, based on these stats and the fact that there is not a corresponding list of Black or Asian serial killers. Culture? Genetics? Who knows. But it is too big a coincidence to ignore and claim that noticing it is foolish.
