The color of murder and gun violence in New York
By Jonathan Capehart
www.washingtonpost.com



________________________ ________________________ ___



I ran into Police Commissioner Ray Kelly last week while dining at a favorite breakfast joint in New York. Since I still read the Daily News and the New York Post, I asked him about the increase in crime that I'd read about. He assured me that the bad old days in the Big Apple weren't returning. But he did rattle off a set of worrisome crime statistics that have him concerned and left me speechless. If New York City were a murder and shooting gallery, almost all of the targets would be African American and Latino.

Check out these statistics from the "Crime and Enforcement Activity in New York City" report for the first six months of 2010.

Murder and Non-Negligent Manslaughter victims are most frequently Black (67.0%) or Hispanic (28.1%). White victims account for (3.2%) of all Murder and Non-Negligent Manslaughter victims while Asian/Pacific Islanders account for (1.8%) of all Murder and Non-Negligent Manslaughter victims.

The Murder and Non-Negligent Manslaughter arrest population is similarly distributed. Black arrestees (53.8%) and Hispanic arrestees (36.4%) account for the majority of Murder and Non-Negligent Manslaughter arrestees while White arrestees (7.1%) and Asian/Pacific Islander (2.2%) arrestees account for the remaining portions of the Murder and Non-Negligent Manslaughter arrest population.

Shooting victims are most frequently Black (73.8%) or Hispanic (22.1 %). White victims account for an additional (2.6%) of all Shooting victims while Asian/Pacific Islanders victims account for (1.2%) of all Shooting Victims.

The Shooting arrest population is similarly distributed. Black arrestees (70.9%) and Hispanic arrestees (25.8%) account for the majority of Shooting arrest population. White arrestees (2.5%) and Asian/Pacific Islander (0.9%) account for the remaining portion of the Shooting arrest population.

In short, 95.1 percent of all murder victims and 95.9 percent of all shooting victims in New York City are black or Hispanic. And 90.2 percent of those arrested for murder and 96.7 percent of those arrested for shooting someone are black and Hispanic. I don't even know where to begin to describe the horror I still feel looking at those numbers. But the word "hunted" comes to mind.

People have railed against black-on-black crime for decades. And yet it persists. Yes, there are a host of factors that push someone to a life of crime, but not all of them have to do with the limitations or failures of society. Some folks are just plain evil, and no amount of social intervention will stop them from preying on people, especially people who look like them.

People have also railed -- and rightly so -- against the disproportionate application of the law against people of color. Bob Herbert has used barrels of New York Times ink against the NYPD's stop-and-frisk policy. But when faced with such stark murder and shooting statistics, what's a police commissioner supposed to do to ensure the safety of the public?

All of society has an obligation to ensure that its citizens can live their lives in peace and security. The police are doing their job. Leaders in the African American and Latino communities have struggled to do their part, as well. Myriad organizations exist in New York City and across the country to steer the wayward on a better path and to protect potential victims from those who violently veer off it. But new alliances must be formed between the two to get guns off the streets and to break the "stop snitching" culture that allows cases to go unsolved, criminals to go free and communities to cower in fear. It's time to stop being speechless and feeling powerless. It's time the hunted fought back.

Update, 12:05 p.m.: Paul Duggan's story this morning on the murder of Joseph Sharps Jr. shows that what's happening in New York is happening elsewhere.

I already have - I could care less.    

These are the facts in NYC.    When I say many of the things I do, its not baseless.  You go in certain nabes around here - and Im not kidding - animals are far more civiized than these savages and barbarians.  

Under my plan - I would empty out the Bronx zoo and let the animals out and move these beasts into cages until they demonstrate they are fit for civilized society.  

Contrast:

guys, please don't make me delete posts for being racist, plus it's an insult to the gorillas in the zoo!!!  Gorillas are awesome.  Street thugs, not so much...

I think these statistics are worth valid debate, just tred logically and with some sensitivity to those who are not murdering thugs that happen to be good folks of color.

Its like the terrorism debates -

All muslims may not be terrorists - but 95% of terrorists are muslims. 

All Blacks/Hispanics may not be murderers - but 95% of murderers are blacks and hispanics.

What a racist post by 333. Many blacks are upstanding citizens in NYC. Some even have law abibding jobs as traffic cops:

GW, I know how upset you get if your posts get deleted, but that is seriously one of the most racist vids ever posted on political.  Looking up that site, it's clear they are extreme racists.  If I get a bunch of complaints, they're justified on this one and I will delete it.  We've long said that race discussion is welcome but outright racist hate is not.  If nobody gives a shit, fine, I'll leave it which is more than I ever would have done for a vid like this in the past...

Just curious, do you listen to that show?  Are you Jewish?  Is there a large group of Jews that feel this way?  Not attacking you, just curious?

95% of murderers are Hispanic?  Really?  Where?  And how did you arrive at this percentage?

The population of Knoxville, Tennessee, at least up until recently, was mostly white.  Most crimes in Knoxville are committed by white people. 

What does this tell you?

So what honest reason could the politicians of NYC have for not allowing all these other law abiding citizens to have permits to defend themselves?

I'm not Jewish, the show doesn't exist anymore, almost no Jews feel the same way as JTF,and to be honest with you, I don't find much of what JTF says to be racist. If you allow the hate filled lies posted by baboons like SAMSON to remain up without deletion, you don't have a leg to stand on in terms of deleting these videos (at least not in terms of consistency). I would say the JTF videos (though offensive) are actually pretty informative and hysterical. This was one of the milder ones. Some I wouldn't dare post on this forum or any other for that matter. Anyway, 333 is the one who is racist here. He claims most blacks in NYC are criminals. As the video I posted clearly demonstrates, many blacks in NYC hold honest jobs as traffic cops.

And those Italian immigrants and Italian Americans are such nice, ethical, peaceful, tolerant, non-violent people.

Deicide lived in South Korea for two years.  Ask him what he thinks about Koreans and why.

Most Italians ( the ones who aren't whitewashed fairy's that hang out with self hating Jews, enlightened blacks and other great contributors to American society) are not tolerant, non- violent or peaceful at all. But they are ethical, honest, hard working and down to earth.
