I read the news on occasion, just to get a general idea of what is going on in the world. I think the media/news networks are crap and more concerned about ratings than truly educating and informing people. Sometimes I visit Yahoo! News to read up on articles that catch my attention. I used to visit the comment section but I can’t anymore. Any time a news story is published on Yahoo! News and the person is black, the comment section looks like a conservative KKK meeting. Even when the victim and the perpetrator is black, I see some of the most vile comments I have ever seen in my life. They talk about the fallacy of black on black crime as if it is actually true. I know these idiots don’t do any research. They are just victims of believing what the media puts out there.
Recently, I had a conversation with a guy that said that he lives in an all white neighborhood because he feel like it is safer for him and his children. He said black on black crime proves that black people are violent beast who murder people at a staggering rate. I called his bluff with my excellent research skills and proved to him that violence and murder knows no color.
According to the CDC:
Homicides

Black-7,818 Male-6,704 Female-1,114

According to the FBI numbers for America in 2009 where the race of the murderer and murdered were known:
- 2963 white-on-white murders
- 2604 black-on-black murders
- 454 black-on-white murders
- 209 white-on-black murders
According to this data from the CDC, a white man is more likely to kill himself or be killed by another white man than by a black person. In other words, white men are more a danger to themselves than black people. The sad part is that many black people believe the black on black crime fallacy as well. It is a radicalized term that feeds off racist fears of black people. As you see, there is not a huge difference in the number of homicides according to race but we never hear white on white crime discussed in the media. I will keep demonizing the media until they stop telling lies and promoting division in people. It is a proven fact that children who do not watch television and read more have higher self-esteem than children who watch television and read less. Any time you see someone use the term black on black crime or try to make excuses for their racism, hit them with these figures. I copied and pasted this chart in Yahoo! News comments section about 10 times one day. They got so mad, that I got cursed out and called every name but my screen name. Knowledge and education is a racist person’s kryptonite. Real friends don’t let friends walk around ignorant.
