If 12.8% of the population commits 50% of murders, that means that Blacks commit murder at ~ 5 X the rate of whites!!!

No it is 5 times the rate of all other races combined.

Let us not forget that there are probably at least a million Hispanic gang members in America who are busy killing each other and probably another 200,000 Asian gang members doing the same. I'd venture to guess that Blacks are committing murder at a rate about 20 times that of whites.

I looked up some statistics on murder rates. In Chicago in 2005, the murder rate was about 34 per 100,000 for Blacks, 11 per 100,000 for Hispanics, and 3 per 100,000 for Whites. In other words, the Black murder rate in Chicago was about 11 times higher than the White murder rate.

Put another way, the part of Chicago that is White is a low-crime, low-murder zone.

Nationally, the Statistical Abstract put the 2001 murder rate at 42.1 per 100,000 for Black males, 8.6 for Black females, 6.1 for White males and 2.2 for White females—overall about a 6 to 1 Black/White ratio.
