Earlier, by Steve Sailer: How Much More Homicidal Are Blacks Than Whites? 7.4x More Like the Obama Administration Said, or 11.7x More?
What with race and law enforcement being much in the news this month, you might think we’d see more reference to the most authoritative official statistics on the subject. Here are the latest FBI statistics on murder offenders by race:
At this point, 29.5% of 2018 murderers are of unknown race, whether because the case hasn’t been cleared yet or because the local agency didn’t get around to reporting the race to the federal government.
Of the 11,514 murder offenders in 2018 where the race of the offender is known by now, 6,318 of the offenders were black: 54.9%.
Blacks make up 13.4% of the population at present.
So, blacks in 2018 were 7.9 times more likely per capita to be murder offenders than the rest of the population.
Here’s how to do the arithmetic:
(54.9% / 13.4%) / ((100% – 54.9%) / (100% – 13.4%))
In recent generations, this black to all else homicide offender ratio goes up and down somewhat, depending upon what drugs are hot, the political climate, and so forth, but usually winds up a little under 8X. For example, in 2011 the Obama Administration’s Bureau of Justice Statistics reported that blacks made up 52.5% of homicide offenders over the 29 years from 1980 to 2008:
These stats would seem rather relevant to current discussions, but for some reason, the just never see to come up…
The Father’s Day Obama Betrayed Black America
On Father’s Day 2008, candidate Barack Obama made his most honest speech on race, maybe his only halfway honest speech on race. The media barely noticed.
The site was the Apostolic Church of God in Chicago. From the pulpit Obama spoke to the gathered voters -- excuse me, congregants -- with uncharacteristic audacity. He reminded his audience that too many black fathers were missing from “too many homes.” He knew something of the phenomenon himself given that his father “left us when I was two years old.” Yes, that con again.
Putting aside for a moment his personal story, however fictitious, Obama made the traditionally conservative argument that fatherless children were five times more likely to grow up poor, nine times more likely to drop out of school, and twenty times more likely to get into serious trouble than children who grow up with both parents.
Those absentee fathers, Obama scolded, “have abandoned their responsibilities, acting like boys instead of men. And the foundations of our families are weaker because of it.” In that it was Obama who made this argument -- not, say, Dan Quayle -- the mainstream media reported the speech uncritically.
Progressives, however, were uneasy about Obama giving voice to what one wag called his “inner Cosby,” and no progressive more so than Jessie Jackson. Even in a whisper, Jackson made his voice heard.
For all of Obama’s politically conscious life, Jackson’s had been the face of the American civil rights movement. From the moment Jackson descended on Chicago in April 1968 wearing a shirt allegedly drenched in Martin Luther King Jr.’s blood -- Obama was six at the time -- he showed that a movement leader with sufficient charisma and media access need not overly worry about the truth.
Jackson was not to be messed with. Three weeks after Obama’s Father’s Day sermon, Jackson got his message across. As reported by Jeff Zeleny of the New York Times, “He specifically took issue with how Mr. Obama had singled out black men in recent speeches for failing to uphold their responsibility as fathers.”
In that Jackson himself had famously sired a love child, he took Obama’s words personally. A hot mic at the Fox News studio caught Jackson whispering to another black guest, “See, Barack been, um, talking down to black people on this faith-based -- I wanna cut his nuts out… Barack -- he’s talking down to black people -- telling n***ers how to behave.”
On saying “cut his nuts out,” Jackson made a sharp slicing motion with his hands. One hopes he was speaking metaphorically, but he definitely “took issue” with Obama. There was no denying his rage.
Had any network other than Fox News recorded these remarks, they might never have surfaced, but surface they did, at least in part. Fox News edited out the “n-word” sentence. "We don't want to hurt Jesse Jackson,” Bill O’Reilly told Politico’s Jonathan Martin. “We're not in business to do that. So we held it back. And then some weasel got the whole thing and leaked it out to the Internet, and here we are."
Reporting on what O’Reilly left out, Martin began with the amusingly Orwellian lede, “It turns out Jesse Jackson whispered something even worse than his desire to cut off Barack Obama’s manhood.” Most males, I suspect, would think the threat of castration a bit “worse” than a racial slur, but most males have not had their priorities reordered in a major newsroom.
This was a delicate moment for Obama and the MSM. To keep the heat off Obama, the Washington Post’s Jonathan Weisman focused on the conflict between Jackson and his congressman son, Jesse Jr. As Weisman noted, however, “For Obama, still struggling to put the Rev. Jeremiah Wright's inflammatory sermons behind him, another flare-up in the African American community cannot be welcome.”
The Times led with Jackson’s preemptive apology for what Zeleny daintily called a “vulgar reference.” That was as specific as the Times got. Obama promptly accepted the apology, but his spokesman promised that Obama would continue addressing the issue of fatherhood.
Canadian Suzanne Goldenberg, writing for Britain’s left-leaning Guardian, reported boldly what the American media barely reported at all. The thrust of headline -- “'I want to cut his nuts out' -- Jackson gaffe turns focus on Obama's move to the right” -- had to make one wonder whether Jackson’s “gaffe” was a gaffe at all. Intentionally or not, Jackson raised the question, “What has happened to Obama since he won the Democratic nomination?” According to Goldenberg, Jackson's remarks “were mirrored on the blogosphere in an outpouring of anger against the campaign's moves to the right.”
Jackson’s authenticity intimidated Obama. For all his promises to address the fatherhood issue going forward, Obama never again spoke out nearly as forcefully as he had on Father’s Day in Chicago.
In his faux apology, Jackson laid out the game plan. Yes, it was okay to talk about personal responsibility, Jackson told the Times, but it was equally important “to deal with the collective moral responsibility of government and the public policy which would be a corrective action for the lack of good choices that often led to [black male] irresponsibility.” Although he obviously needed little prompting, Obama would honor Jackson’s dictate throughout his presidency. The consequences for the black community have been downright lethal.

Want to learn about Black Privilege? This is the story of Da’qon Sipple, the poster child for what happens when Criminal Justice Reform unleashes black criminals back into the general public, when instead they should be locked away in the deepest, darkest prison and the key conveniently lost:
A man convicted of an aggravated assault at the scene of the 2016 shooting death of Kansas City, Kansas police Capt. Dave Melton is now in the Jackson County Jail, charged with murder in a shooting and crash from last week.Daqon Sipple, 22, is charged with second-degree murder in a fatal crash that happened last Wednesday on U.S. 24 Highway and Sterling Avenue. Police said the crash happened after Sipple had fled the scene of a shooting on North Emery in which a woman said Sipple shot into her vehicle.Independence police said Sipple ran a red light and hit a vehicle that was going south. The driver, Mari McElyea, died.Sipple remains in the Jackson County Detention Center on $250,000 bond.Sipple is one of two men who were charged in a July 2016 incident that involved the fatal shooting of Melton, 46, who had responded to assist other officers in the search for drive-by shooting suspects. A man named Jamaal Lewis came up behind Melton, who was still in his vehicle, and fired several shots into the police car, killing the police captain.
A man convicted of an aggravated assault at the scene of the 2016 shooting death of Kansas City, Kansas police Capt. Dave Melton is now in the Jackson County Jail, charged with murder in a shooting and crash from last week.
Mari McElyea was a white woman, who was murdered in her vehicle as Da’qon sped away from a shooting he had just engaged in (firing rounds into the car his ex-girlfriend was driving). Da’qon – it should go without saying – is a black male, who is the type of repeat black criminal the GOP is so desperate to let out of jail via the First Step Act and restore their voting rights since he is obviously a natural conservative/Republican.
Friends mourn innocent woman allegedly hit, killed by man fleeing Independence shooting, FOX4KC.com, May 29, 2020
A 22-year-old who is well known to police on both sides of the state line is in custody after police say he hit and killed an innocent woman while running away from a shooting.Friends said Mari McElyea was always trying to help people and loved working with children. Her death is hitting friends and family hard, especially because of the way she died and who allegedly killed her.“I miss her. I can’t even believe she’s gone,” her best friend Marilyn Evans said.A knock on the door by two Independence police officers is not how Evans thought her friendship with McElyea would end.“You know, they said there’s no easy way to tell you this. There was a car accident, and Mari didn’t make it,” Evans said.On Wednesday, McElyea was on her way home from work at Sugar Creek Elementary School when she was hit by a car speeding through a red light at 24 Highway and Sterling Avenue in Independence.“Maybe a little bit worse because it was someone who was doing bad things,” Evans’ husband Jonathan Hutchins said of the man accused of killing McElyea.Sipple has a long rap sheet, including a drive-by shooting in KCK that prompted a call to police and ended in the death of Capt. Dave Melton. Sipple spent about two years in prison for his role in that incident, and police said Sipple is up to his old antics.Prosecutors said Sipple shot at his ex-girlfriend at their Independence home and then took off. He was allegedly running from that incident when he hit and killed McElyea.“If it had just been an accident, then it would be just something random. But this was worse than that,” Hutchins said.Evans said the two were more like sisters than friends, who went fox hunting, camping every summer, and were members of SCA, a historic recreation group.The two expected to be friends for a lifetime. Mari even gave Marilyn the Blue Zones Diet cookbook so they could live to be 100.“And I was pouring through it. We were figuring out how we were going to cook all these things,” Evans said. “And we had a passion for Indian food. We both love Indian food, and I don’t think I’ll eat Indian food again without getting kind of messed up about it.”McElyea was an accomplished equestrian who taught riding lessons to children and adults, including Evans and her husband. They said her passion for animals, including horses and cats, and her love of children will be her legacy.“Going through her things, I’m finding so many notes and cards from people thanking her and wishing her well,” Hutchins said. “She appreciated them I guess.”Sipple has been charged with second-degree murder, unlawful use of a weapon and armed criminal action.FOX4 spoke to Sipple’s extended family who said the police have the story all wrong, but they would not speak on record to tell their story.
Had Da’qon been locked away for good in a prison rotting for the rest of his life, Mari McElyea would still be alive, working with children at the elementary school where she was employed. Instead, because we are in the early stages of making it illegal to arrest black criminals, he was allowed out and on probation and promptly engaged in more criminality (firing rounds at his ex-girlfriend), before trying to speed away from the police and killing an innocent white woman.
Do Progressives Actually Know HateStats About Black Crime?

Earlier: FBI Data: Blacks, Who Are Only 13.4% of the Population, Were 54.9% of Known Murder Offenders in 2018
iSteve commenter Mr. Blank says in response to my posting official FBI crime statistics showing that blacks are 7.9 times as likely as the rest of the population to be a murder offender in 2018:
From time to time, I’ve been tempted to post figures like this in response to some of the crazier stuff my lefty friends have been putting on social media lately. Because the way they’ve been talking lately, it seems like they really are completely ignorant of all this stuff.
But I always stop myself, because I think about it for a moment and realize, “of course they know this stuff.” The way they conduct themselves and order their lives testifies to the fact that they are perfectly aware of these facts. (Though one occasionally runs across a true believer who REALLY IS completely unaware of the facts, those people tend to have pretty short lifespans.)
When I was growing up, it used to be that everybody knew this stuff, but it was considered poor taste to mention it publicly. But everybody — black, white, liberal, conservative — knew the facts. It wasn’t talked about, but nobody pretended it wasn’t true.
But now we have to navigate an additional level of protective stupidity, where not only are we not supposed to mention the truth, but we are supposed to make a great show of being utterly ignorant of it — while simultaneously retaining enough awareness of the truth to behave in ways conducive to self-preservation.
I don’t know how people can live this way without going crazy. I look at my lefty friends, and they seem so normal and well-adjusted. I don’t know how they can keep all those plates spinning in their heads without eventually suffering a nervous breakdown. But then again, maybe that explains what we’re seeing now…
Has anybody ever studied these questions?
One reason I pay attention to government crime statistics and the like is because I don’t have particularly adept natural instincts. I’m not good at tacit knowledge. To know something, I usually need to articulate it. I’m especially not good at doublethink. I only have room for one set of truths in my head.
A lot of people seem more functional than I am. The know these hatestats when buying a house in a fashionable neighborhood. But they don’t know these stats if any were so gauche as to mention the numbers. But on the other hand, we are watching our society plunge into dysfunction because people’s doublethink capabilities are breaking down under the long assault on Implicit Bias and the like.
