Major
Findings:
Police and the justice system
are not biased against minorities.
Crime Rates
Blacks are seven times more
likely than people of other races to commit murder, and eight times
more likely to commit robbery.
When blacks commit crimes
of violence, they are nearly three times more likely than non-blacks
to use a gun, and more than twice as likely to use a knife.
Hispanics commit violent
crimes at roughly three times the white rate, and Asians commit
violent crimes at about one quarter the white rate.
The single best indicator
of violent crime levels in an area is the percentage of the population
that is black and Hispanic.
Interracial Crime
Of the nearly 770,000 violent
interracial crimes committed every year involving blacks and whites,
blacks commit 85 percent and whites commit 15 percent.
Blacks commit more violent
crime against whites than against blacks. Forty-five percent of
their victims are white, 43 percent are black, and 10 percent are
Hispanic. When whites commit violent crime, only three percent of
their victims are black.
Blacks are an estimated 39
times more likely to commit a violent crime against a white than
vice versa, and 136 times more likely to commit robbery.
Blacks are 2.25 times more
likely to commit officially-designated hate crimes against whites
than vice versa.
Gangs
Only 10 percent of youth
gang members are white.
Hispanics are 19 times more
likely than whites to be members of youth gangs. Blacks are 15 times
more likely, and Asians are nine times more likely.
Incarceration
Between 1980 and 2003 the
US incarceration rate more than tripled, from 139 to 482 per 100,000,
and the number of prisoners increased from 320,000 to 1.39 million.
Blacks are seven times more
likely to be in prison than whites. Hispanics are three times more
likely.
