Far More Whites Killed by US Police

Far more white people than blacks are killed by police in America, both proportionally to their population sizes and in real numbers, completely contrary to the anti-white propaganda put out by the “Black Lives Matter” campaign and its allies.

According to statistics maintained by the far-left extremist Guardian newspaper in Britain, more than half of all people killed by US police this year have been white, while only 25 percent have been black.

The Guardian’s statistics are contained in a tally of police killings maintained by that newspaper on a site titled “The Counted.” This was set up by the far-leftist newspaper with the intention of “proving” how “racist” the police in America are—an aim which has now completely backfired in face of the facts.

According to the Guardian’s tally, of the approximately 1001 people killed by police this year in America, 502 were white, 250 were black, 163 were Hispanic/Latino, 18 were Asian/Pacific Islander, 13 were American Indian, and 54 were other/unknown.

Not only do these figures show that, in real numbers, more whites are killed by police than blacks, but, when contrasted in proportion to the crime rates of each group, whites are in fact far more likely to be killed by police than any other race, especially when it comes to violent criminal offenses.

For example, according to the US Department of Justice (“Homicide Trends in the United States, 1980–2008“), blacks accounted for 52.5 percent of homicide offenders from 1980 to 2008, with whites 45.3 percent and “other” 2.2 percent.

These figures infamously added all Hispanic crimes into the “white” category, and once this distortion is stripped out, it is estimated that around 90 percent of all violent crimes in America are committed by nonwhites.

According to the National Crime Victimization Survey in 2002 (United States Department of Justice. Office of Justice Programs. Bureau of Justice Statistics. “National Crime Victimization Survey: Unbounded Data, 2002“), the black arrest rate for robbery was 8.55 times higher than whites, and blacks were 16 times more likely to be incarcerated for robbery than non-Hispanic whites. Robberies with white victims and black offenders were more than 12 times more common than the reverse.

A 2004 National Crime Victimization Survey (Bureau of Justice Statistics, Crime Data Brief, Carjacking, 1993–2003) report which analyzed carjacking over 10 years found that carjacking victims identified 56 percent of offenders as black, 21 percent as white, and 16 percent as Native American or Asian.

These statistics all clearly show that nonwhites in general—and blacks in particular—commit both in real terms and proportionally—far more crime than do whites.

It is therefore logical that they will feature far more than whites in any negative interactions with the police—yet, despite this, a larger number of whites are killed by the police than any other racial group.

The propaganda surrounding the “Black Lives Matter” campaign is therefore, based on lies, and an underlying anti-white racism—and nothing else.
