Are there more black criminals than white criminals in USA?

[BeMuse]

In raw numbers? No. As a percentage of their population? Yes, by far. Blacks are far more prone to crime in the USA than Whites, but they are a minority population accounting for only 13.6% of Americans so their overall impact on crime is less than that of Whites who account for 75.8% of the American populous. When you isolate crime to violent crime then yes Blacks actually commit more of it than all other races in America combined. A population of 13.6% of Americans accounts for 55.9% of violent crime. Violent crime in America consists of murder and nonnegligent manslaughter, forcible rape, robbery, and aggravated assault.

I think there are more black criminals. But it's only 20℅ of black people and, let's say, 10-5% of white. What about 80% of black people? Most of them are ordinary people trying to go to work.

Most black people don't want anything to do with that 20% of gang members and criminals.

Let's look at that 5% of white hillbillies, biker gangs, and meth heads. Do you think 95% of white people want anything to do with them? No, they dont.

Ordinary people don't want to go anywhere near that small minority of their population despite their race. No one wants to be associated with them. It's a small percentage of the people. It's more in the black community, but again a small percentage.

I dont want to hang out with meth head white people because they are the same color as me.

I think perhaps the light is shown on and the fingers are pointed more at POC compared to Caucasians. Society and the government has a way of showing you what they want you to see. I suspect the amount of criminal activity that his swept under the rug by those who are more privileged (and wealthy) is much higher than we are aware of. Just recently Todd and Savannah Chrisley just got sentenced for pretty significant bank fraud and tax evasion (if I am correct).

As a percentage of each group, Yes.

In actual numbers, No.

The percentage of black people who are criminals is ridiculously high for them to be 13% total of the US population! It's something like 42% of crimes are committed by blacks.

In actual numbers of people who are criminals, between white and black people, there are more white people who are criminals.

Higher testosterone combined with low intelligence, africa is a mess for the same reason.

Just a hunch, but I think the answer is yes.
