this is something Im sure you brothas/sistas know or read as this is nearly 2 months old.

When White on White crime takes place it’s never talked about the way it is when Blacks commit crimes.

In the United States, a White person is almost six times more likely to be killed by another White person than by a Black person, according to FBI homicide data. In 2011, there were more cases of Whites killing Whites than there were Blacks killing Blacks. However, the mainstream media obsesses over Black on Black violence and rarely mentions the problem of White on White violence.

These statistics have not led to a media outcry about the problem of White on White crime or the unique pathology of the White community. Nor has the White community stood up to demand change in their community like the Black community does when trying to tackle instances of Black on Black crime.

Most White people don’t ? White people. Yet media pundits, from Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly to CNN’s Don Lemon, have no problem using the phrase “Black on Black violence” despite the fact that most Black people don’t ? Black people.

When the news talks about gang-related deaths, they treat it as an almost exclusively Black problem. However, according to the Bureau of Justice Statistics, for the period of 1980 to 2008, a majority (53.3 percent) of gang homicides were committed by White offenders, and the majority of gang homicide victims (56.5 percent) were White.

When was the last time you’ve seen on the news, discussions about a White-gang problem?

Crimes committed by White people are explained as deviations of the individual but have nothing to do with race, but crimes committed by Blacks or Latino’s are somehow attributed to race. Gang-bangers from South Chicago have somehow become a symbol that Black men are to be feared, but you don’t get the same fear that one could attach to the brutal murders committed by Neo-? skinheads.

According to statistics from the Justice Department, White men are more likely to ? than any other racial group. When it comes to how and why people ? , Black men do, in fact, outnumber Whites in gun-related homicides, but especially drug-related offenses. However, White men top the list in most all other categories.

When the Bureau of Justice Statistics collected homicidal rates from 1980 to 2008, they found that compared to Blacks, Whites were more likely to ? children, the elderly, family members, and their significant others. They commit more sex-related crimes, gang related crimes, and are more likely to ? at their places of employment.

So why does America still perpetuate the lie of Black criminality?

Is it because one in 15 Black men are in prison? That may not explain it. The racial biases in the War on Drugs contribute to the high incarceration rates. Studies show that Blacks are no more likely than Whites to use or sell drugs. Blacks actually only make up 14 percent of regular drug users. Yet Blacks are more likely to be arrested for drug crimes, and receive longer sentences than Whites.

Should we blame gangster rap with the gun-toting rappers? If so, why can’t we blame a White man with a pistol being used to symbolize Second Amendment rights?

    Crime is intraracial most often. All the things the media pushes is usually backwards:
    Your more likely to be attacked by some one you know rather than a stranger and you are more likely to be victimized by your own race as well.

    I was having this conversation with someone months ago and telling them its almost impossible for 12-14% of the population to make up the majority of any statistic...yet alone lead in almost every crime statistic out

    As for gangs and drug lords go ....I realized along time ago that they call a black group dealing drugs a gang and whites they refer to as a mob or mafia or a syndicate...

    So more whites are killed by whites than there are Blacks killed by Blacks.

    Big deal. There are more whites than blacks. That's what we should expect.

    But blacks ? way out of proportion of their numbers in the population, and the black-on-black homicide rate is much higher than the white-on-white homicide rate.

    In other words, this article is less than useful.

    We are not gonna solve our problems (regardless of who created them) by pretending that they don't exist. Yes, blacks are unfairly criminalized, but that doesn't mean that disparities in crime rates -- including homicide rates -- are not real.

    While this is a known fact, the media would have poor dumb whites think differently...
    Fear of the violent black man helps certain folks maintain power through division...
    Even black ppl fear the violent black man...

    Aren't whites like 73 percent of the population? If they're only committing 53 percent of the violent crime they're underrepresented, or other groups are overrepresented depending how you look at it.

    People always focus so much on race. Why don't they give stats like this for socio-economic statuses. I'm betting you'll fine a far bigger correlation between the amount of money people have and crime than crime and race.

    I support chick on chick....wait....violence works....sure, and anything else that follows. You know y'all do too.

    In general I just support violence, it's every human beings right to meet on a level playing field and bludgeon the gorilla snot out one another. So white on white violence? Sure, why not, maybe we can get our population down to a minority size.

    Latinos are, generally speaking, white folks
    I also heard more whites are in jail, more are dead beat dads, more like chicken and watermelon and more drop out of school each year too. Crazy ? .
    look, if there's one thing i know for a FACT, it's that EVERYONE loves chicken, regardless of racial origin
