Zimbler,

re: "Last time I checked . . . The percentage of blacks was around 20% . . ."

It's never been nearly that high.

Per Wikipedia, whites make up 63.7 percent of the 2010 U.S. population, hispanics/latinos make up 16.3 percent, and all other races including blacks make up 19.9 percent. That's probably what you're thinking of when you say 20 percent, but you're forgetting about the 5 percent each of Asian and "other race" going into that 19.9 percent figure.

The actual black percentage in our country is 12.6. I'll grant, no one would ever think it was nearly that low based on how much attention blacks receive from our media, from racists like clo and OCU, and from our prison system.

>>>
WHAT percentage of the population of the United States is black?

What percentage of violent crime prisoners are in the prisons as a percentage of inmates

Last time I checked . . .
The percentage of blacks was around 20% . . .
And the percentage of blacks in the jail population
was around 50%.

Quick look, and I found this.

There was only one article with a strong match, but this 1999 essay was surprisingly blunt: "Janet Reno's Justice Department flatly states that 'blacks are 8 times more likely than whites to commit homicide.'"

And:
Nationally, blacks are imprisoned on average 9.1 times as often as whites.

If this high rate of black imprisonment was caused by anti-black conservatism, then the ratio of blacks to whites imprisoned should be highest in Republican strongholds like the Old South. But instead, it is lowest there of any major region.

Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, and South Carolina are only about six times more likely to imprison blacks than whites—just two-thirds of the national average.

In contrast, by far the greatest racial disparity was found in the most liberal spot on the map: the black-run District of Columbia, where Bush won only nine percent of the vote. Blacks in Washington D.C. are 56 times more likely than whites to wind up in the slammer.
