The rape rate is even more skewed.

I doubt the whites killed by blacks and whites killed by whites numbers are correct. My guess is that they are reversed, but the rest seems accurate. I’m SURE 97% of blacks killed are killed by other blacks, if it’s not even higher than that. And lets face it, almost nobody is killed by police, no matter how much notice those killings receive.

They are treated as White when they are the perps but separately as hispanic when they are victims. Done to make Crackers look worse. Very deceitful of the Fibbies and Dept of Just Us.

Bill whittle did a piece on this with stats a while back re guns.

[Cobra64]

Why would you “guess” and then make that statement?

[kiryandil]

Twitter erupts in OUTRAGE!!!

Heads of SJWs were seen exploding on webcams everywhere...

[I Hired Craig Livingstone]

?

It’s my hunch.

[PA-RIVER]

Trump needs to get some of the Democrats.

If I could advise him, he should rape a nurse, belt her in the mouth, then tell her to put some ice in it.

This gave Clinton the Soccer Mom vote.

Trump RE-tweeted this. He did not originate it.

My guess is he had someone research the figures, found out they were valid & then re-tweeted.

MSM can’t report it without completely exposing the big lie about Black Lies Matter...unless they lie as they are so prone to do.

Trump is kicking a$$ every single day. I love it!

[Jim Robinson]

Apparently black lives matter less to blacks than to whites.

[kjam22]

It is what it is....

Once again, Trump's timing is both impeccable and prescient:

Mass shooting at Bunny Friend Park on Gallier Street in New Orleans

Just wait until Trump starts posting stats on single parent households.

[VerySadAmerican]

Blacks marched in Houston yesterday against blacks killing blacks. One man whose son was killed by another black spoke about his own experience when a black 17 years old pulled a gun on him and asked him if he wanted to die.

There are blacks out there that know blacks are killing blacks. A woman in Chicago says “no sex” until it stops.

[driftless2]

about 8% white on black

You must remember that Hispanics are counted as Whites in these stats. There is a Mexican-American gangs vs. black gang war that accounts for many non-black murders of blacks.

The real number of non-Hispanic Whites killing blacks is maybe one or two percent of the total number of blacks murdered by non-blacks.

The truth really hurts.

[dila813]

“Additionally, some took exception to the veracity of the claims in Trump’s graphic, arguing particularly that the “whites killed by whites” number of 16 percent is actually far too low — that most white people murdered in the U.S. are killed by other whites, in numbers lower, but more similar to the black-on-black rate.”

THE TRUTH HURTS, WHAT’S THEIR SOURCE??

People in this country may ask: "Is there an epidemic of racial violence in this country?"

The answer to this question may be found in Bill Whittle's excellent video: VIDEO: Bill Whittle: Ferguson and the Real Race War

In summary, here are the raw statistics for general violent crime Black-on-White and White-on-Black crime from the National Crime Victimization Survey (the branch of the DOJ responsible for collecting these statistics) here are the raw results for 2010:

Here is the RAW disparity between Black-on-White and White-on-Black general violent crime:

But this raw data is misleading, due to disparity in the sizes of the population. Here are the numbers that show the population totals for black and white populations in 2010:

If you normalize the statistics to take into account the relative sizes of the populations, Here are the numbers that reflect the real magnitude of Black-on-White versus White-on-Black VIOLENT ASSAULT crime:

Furthermore, if you narrow the statistics shown above on violent assault (GENERAL VIOLENT ASSAULT) to a specific type of violent assault (IN THE CASE BELOW, VIOLENT AGGRAVATED ASSAULT) , the statistics that Black-on-White versus White-on-Black VIOLENT ASSAULT crime take on an entirely different magnitude:

When one looks at these statistics, one can only reach the same conclusion that Bill Whittle did in his video:
"Oh, there's an epidemic of racial violence in America, all right."

Bill Whittle further accurately states:
"Critics will say that I am using these statistics to justify the murder of Michael Brown. But I said at the beginning-if Michael Brown were shot in cold blood then the police officer needs to pay the price for murder. This has nothing to do with Michael Brown. This has EVERYTHING to do with the narrative that the President, the Attorney General, and all of these race hustlers are trying to create using Michael Brown.

There is, in fact, a racial war of violence and hatred in America. Open racism is simply not tolerated in white America today, but black racism is the toxic glue that holds the progressive coalition together. Tolerance of- in fact, as we see from the events in Ferguson, open encouragement of black rage at a narrative that not only does not exist but reverses the daily outrages that do exist, is what defines modern progressivism. It is the politics of envy, anger, entitlement, lawlessness, violence and bald-faced lies.

And of all the promises broken by this man, surely none is more heartbreaking than the one promise that got him elected in the first place: the promise of a post-racial future. He and his racist progressive cohorts can never surrender the weapon that has gotten them everything, not the least of which is personal political power and trillions of dollars of redistributed wealth. And this latest outrage in Furguson is yet another example – as if another was needed among the economic wreckage, creeping totalitarianism, and foreign-policy disasters -- that he and his leftist cohorts would rather rule over ruins than disappear into the dustbin of a healthy and healed nation."

"Once again, Trump's timing is both impeccable and prescient:"

Yup.

The Blacks were complaining that the terrorists were taking all the attention away from the BLM movement....Trump says, you want some attention:

Take this, Ha ha.

Great post. Wish Trump could see it. It sucks if he tweeted out a somewhat inaccurate infographic, because an accurate one is as shocking.
