What planet do you live on?
The one where statistics and data are what we base conclusions on rather than racial bias.
During the 4-year aggregated period from 2012 to 2015, U.S. residents experienced 5.8 million violent victimizations each year.
While half of the victimizations were intraracial, 41 percent of violent victimizations during the period involved victims and offenders of different races or Hispanic origin (interracial).
Among black victims, 63 percent of violent victimizations were committed by black offenders, 11 percent by white offenders and 7 percent by Hispanic offenders.
Among white victims, 57 percent of victimizations were committed by white offenders, 15 percent by black offenders and 11 percent by Hispanic offenders.
Among Hispanic victims, 40 percent of violent victimizations were committed by Hispanic offenders, 20 percent by white offenders and 20 percent by black offenders.
The race of the offender or the number of offenders was unknown in 8 percent of the violent crimes.
During 2012-15, the rate of white-on-white violent crime (12.0 per 1,000) was about four times higher than black-on-white violent crime (3.1 per 1,000).
The rate of black-on-black crime (16.5 per 1,000) was more than five times higher than white-on-black violent crime (2.8 per 1,000).
The rate of Hispanic-on-Hispanic crime (8.3 per 1,000) was about double the rate of white-on-Hispanic (4.1 per 1,000) and black-on-Hispanic (4.2 per 1,000) violent crime.
Findings are from BJS’s National Crime Victimization Survey, which collects data from victims on their experiences with crime.
Offender demographic characteristics are based on the victim’s perceptions.
From 1994 to 2015, white-on-white violence and black-on-black violence declined at a similar rate.
White-on-white violence declined 79 percent (from 52.5 to 10.8 victimizations per 1,000 white persons).
Black-on-black violence declined 78 percent (from 66.6 to 14.5 victimizations per 1,000 black persons).
Information on Hispanic origin of offenders was not collected prior to 2012.
The report, Race and Hispanic Origin of Victims and Offenders, 2012-15 (NCJ 250747), can be found on the BJS website.
There is less crime in the poorest white community per capita than the richest black community. We are talking sub-20k per year whites vs 250k per year black people. No amount of twisting and turning will change this. Shill all you want. You can’t distort reality.
And before you try to shift to population density or poverty - don’t bother. Fatherlessness is a factor though - that much is accurate.

I live in Mississippi. Blacks victimize one another and they victimize whites at an alarming rate. Are all blacks a problem? No, that doesn’t mean I want them anywhere near me. If I see a black where he doesn’t belong, I keep my senses on alert.
You can’t provide any data that supports your claim bolded above.
How is speaking the truth “shilling” for anything other than the truth?
If you want to argue that overall blacks offend at 4x the rate of whites, that’s true. If you want to argue that blacks commit homicides at 5x the rate of whites that is true.
If you want to argue that there are serious problems with crime in the black community that too is true.
To claim that race is responsible for that difference is unsupportable by any fact. The same risk factors apply to all communities regardless of race.
If you want to argue that the destruction of the black family due to welfare and other poverty programs is responsible for the higher rates in the black community, that too is true.
It’s culture, not race that is determining the outcome regardless of race.
Where kids of any race are raised by intact two parent traditional families with high rates of church attendance crime rates are very low. Change any of those simple parts of the equation and crime rates rise.
Regardless of race, where there are no expected serious consequences for criminal behavior, crime rates are higher.
