We can start a pool until someone bothers to look it up.

My guess is 80%

Yet there always seems to be more, even after half of all black babies have been aborted (and, logically, those never had children themselves … some since Roe could have been grandparents by now).

Wait, possible horse and cart issues. Combining race radicalism riddled with Cultural Marxist pabulum and abortion cheapening life to begin with (the Lord is not mocked) probably fuel the violence from both the intellectual and spiritual levels (I’d argue that abortion has, as evidence of being turned over to depraved minds, helped to create a bunch of quisling guilt ridden white woketards peddling Marxist racism … just for comparison).

The population is about the same as 30 years ago.

In 2020 85% of the victims were black. Considering that whites killing blacks is a miniscule % of the total, I’d say your 80% figure is likely pretty accurate.

Didn’t NYC once have 1,000 - 2,000 murders, pre-Rudy?

Amazingly enough, all of this murder seems to be at a sustainable rate. After all, it's not like there is a serious decrease in the overall population because of this, even in the targeted (yes, play on words) demographics.

I wonder if the professional race / grievance hustlers would be able to apply any corrections if the death count got so high the overall population would fall below critical mass.

Philly edges out Chicago in the per capita rate - 31/100k vs 29/100k.
