    That's just a no.
    You are nitpicking data around like your random facebook crusader nitpicking into covid-data and claiming it knows best, while trashing the experts.
    It's absurd. In no way am I going to trust your random anonymous poster's opinion as an amateur on an iffy forum how to conduct proper surveys, that's different from the surveys used by HRW.
    You just can't stand they proved systemic racism.

    You're free to source and quote how HRW did it wrong. But so far, you have not. Hence what HRW said just stands.

    Violent crime like murder is extremely rare. The statistics and raw numbers demonstrate this fact. Every demographic in this country has percentages below one percent but racists like to create a skewed perception.

    Most people of all races do not commit violent crime like murder. If 6 people became millionaires by winning the lottery last year and 4 of them were black, you could say that black people are "FAR AND AWAY" MILLIONAIRE lottery winners more than any other group. That would have nothing to do with 99.9 percent of the overall black population each year. Apply that logic to your statistics and you will begin to approach a more reasonable perception of annual murder rates with regard to race.

    Nope.
    I got 2 sources that mentions %'s.
    It's %'s wise that the white population are punching above their weight, and so also per capita.

    We have covered this and that has nothing to do with the actions of 99.9 percent of black people each year. Highlight THAT fact, unless your goal is to create a false perception of black people.

    Almost 99.9 of those who murdered in Chicago are blacks by other blacks.

    Perhaps yes perhaps no - most violent crime is perpetrated by members of the same race as the victim. The percentage would be 100 if 50 people were murdered by members of the same race but that number would pale in comparison to the population of Chicago which, as of 2019, was more than 2.7 million. Raw numbers are a much better way to show relevant context when compared to the number of people in an overall population.

    13 percent committing more than half the murders isn't something you can just sweep under the rug

    Just as most guns are not used in violent crime.
    Right?

    You can if you have a narrative to push.

    Murder isnt in the context of drug arrest statistics. Who has expressed a fear of black people?

    "There is nothing more painful for me at this stage in my life than to walk down the street and hear footsteps and start to think about robbery and then look around and see it’s somebody white and feel relieved." The Reverend Jesse Jackson. (Kennedy 1998, 16)

    You mean like where HRW says -
    "SAMHSA estimated that 3.1 percent of non-Hispanic blacks and 2.4 percent of non-Hispanic whites over the age of 12 had used cocaine in the past year."
    Directly contradicting your assertions?

    All guns are weapons. All people are not murderers. If you are concerned about gun rights (a different subject) though, the 2nd Amendment is safe.

    It's also not something to evaluate out of context. Furthermore, 13 percent aren't doing anything. That would mean 100 percent, instead of the infinitesimal fraction.

    A couple of things, stereotypes illicit fear. Jackson believed the hype (internalized the stereotypes). That's why they're bad. That's why such generalizations shouldn't be used. Second, we were discussing murder statistics. None of these maladies or crimes are race-based.

    That's exactly what I consider people who quote stats out of context to be doing ... pushing a narrative.

    Blacks committing over 50% of the murders and robberies in the US isnt a stereotype, its a statistic.

    Not sure what you are trying to say here? Maybe not enough coffee this morning. I think if you really wanted to break down the statistic further, it would just look even worse for black males.

    I think when you point out that blacks, 13% of the population, commit 50% of the murders, defenders of black crime interpret this as saying something about all blacks. It doesnt. Much like pointing out that non heterosexual men are more likely to be child sex offenders compared to heterosexual men, they interpret as a condemnation of all non heterosexuals. Cant offend the favored minorities.

    Yes. Stats like "the % of black people who commit murder is infinitesimally small".

    Right? Doesn't even make any sense lol. When 13 % causes 50 % of anything, you need to look at the anomaly.

    If blacks committed murder at the same rate as whiles, our national murder rate would drop somewhere in the neighborhood of 48%
    From 5.0/100k to like 2.6/100k.
