From your link:<p>&gt;These data cover all violent crimes except murder, but the number of murders is tiny compared to other violent crimes.<p>So, we&#x27;ve started by cherry picking our data, a really strong start.<p>Next we go on by comparing apples and oranges.  You&#x27;ve reached the conclusion that as a white male you should be afraid of black people, but the data you linked shows otherwise.<p>While 13.7% of violent crimes against white people were committed by black people, 56% of violent crimes against white people were committed by other white people.<p>You are 4 times more likely to be violently attacked by a white person than a black person, if you are a white person.  So if you are afraid of being attacked by a black person, you must be 4 times more afraid everytime you see a white person (that is, if you are being logically consistent, rather than using confirmation bias to support a worldview of racial superiority, though your link suggests otherwise)<p>In this light, it is completely irrational to have anywhere near the fear of black people (or any other race) than you do for white people.<p>Further, if you are of a race other than black or hispanic, you are more than twice as likely to be violently attacked by a white person  (40.3%) than a black person (19.3%).<p>The only thing damning against black people these statistics show, is that black people are vastly more likely to be violently attacked by other black people than by any other race.  This is the same case for all the other races included.  People of any given race are much more likely to have a crime committed against them by someone of their own race, than by someone of any other race.
