Larry Edler absolutely destroys the BLM narrative. Eye-opening interview that shows the real background Black community is showing increased acts of violence, offenses and show a general lack of success in America.
1. Data shows that 93 percent of black homicide victims are killed by other blacks.
- The left's rebuttal is that that 84 percent of white homicide victims are killed by other whites, but The Wall Street Journal's Jason Riley points out that the white crime rate is "much lower than the black rate."
2. According to Riley, "Blacks commit violent crimes at 7 to 10 times the rate that whites do."
- Blacks committed 52 percent of homicides between 1980 and 2008, despite composing just 13 percent of the population. Across the same timeframe, whites committed 45 percent of homicides while composing 77% of the population, according to the Bureau of Justice Statistics.
3. According to Riley, "Black crime rates were lower in the 1940s and 1950s, when black poverty was higher" and "racial discrimination was rampant and legal."
- If it's not racism and poverty that are blame for the high black crime rate, then what is?
4. According to Mac Donald, "A straight line can be drawn between family breakdown and youth violence."
Before the 1960s "most black children were raised in two-parent families." In 2013, over 72 percent of blacks were born out of wedlock. In Cook County –which Chicago belongs to – 79 percent of blacks were born to single mothers in 2003, while only 15 percent of whites were born to single mothers.
"Until that gap closes, the crime gap won't close, either," writes Mac Donald.
