WHY WHITE PEOPLE FEAR BLACK PEOPLE

In response to a recent post on PACOVILLA Corrections blog, ‘WordTruthLight’ commented that white people had no reason to fear black people because the majority of crimes are white-on-white and If you are white, you are more likely to be robbed or murdered by a white person. He blamed the media for ‘teaching’ whites to fear blacks.

Here is what WordTruthLight wrote and some responses:

WTL: Here’s a little spoken of truth: Overall, there are more black men in college than there are in prison. The media loves to focus on the negative when it comes to talking about black men and there are those who profit from painting the black community as being in a perpetual state of crisis. Some make political spokesperson careers out of it.

And there is a lot of talk of black-on-black crime, but this ignores that fact that though black men do commit a disproportionate amount of the crimes (probably has something to do with living with a disproportionate amount of poverty), the majority of crimes are actually white-on-white, and most people in prison are white, even if black men are overrepresented for their population. If you are white, you are more likely to be robbed or murdered by a white person simply due to the fact that there are much more white people than black people, and the overwhelming white victims of crime have white aggressors. And yet, the media teaches white people that they are to fear black people for some reason.

BGB: WordTruthLight, let me shine some light on your well-written comment.

Now here is the truth with some excerpts from a recent Pat Buchanan column:

In New York from January to June 2008, 83 percent of all gun assailants were black, according to witnesses and victims, though blacks were only 24 percent of the population. Blacks and Hispanics together accounted for 98 percent of all gun assailants. Forty-nine of every 50 muggings and murders in the Big Apple were the work of black or Hispanic criminals. Blacks and Hispanics commit 96 percent of all crimes in the cit

After researching the FBI numbers for “Suicide of a Superpower,” this writer concluded: “An analysis of ‘single offender victimization figures’ from the FBI for 2007 finds blacks committed 433,934 crimes against whites, eight times the 55,685 whites committed against blacks. Interracial rape is almost exclusively black on white — with 14,000 assaults on white women by African Americans in 2007. Not one case of a white sexual assault on a black female was found in the FBI study.”

Though blacks are outnumbered 5-to-1 in the population by whites, they commit eight times as many crimes against whites as the reverse. By those 2007 numbers, a black male was 40 times as likely to assault a white person as the reverse.

Let me add, …and that is why white people fear black people.

BGB: And they are not in jail or prison because they are victims of a racist criminal justice system. Nor are they in prison for singing off-key in the church choir.
