Tennessee
WorldStarHipHop.com strikes again:
Note: In The Color of Crime: Tennessee, we learned that African-Americans are 16.7 percent of the population, but are responsible for 56.6 percent of homicide, 40.4 percent of rape, 64.4 percent of robbery, 41.3 percent of aggravated assault, and 38.8 percent of burglary.
Had to leave a comment on the YT thread, basically stating the prison industry loves black people.
Thought I’d include a comment from the Color of Crime Tenn post.
Obviously this doesn’t break down the white/Hispanic distinctions concerning specific crimes but these stats do give some indication as to the percentage of over all crime is white and what is Hispanic.
From the 2005 Prison and Jail Incarceration Rates per 100,000 in Tenn.
Whites 487
Blacks 2006
Hispanics 561
This source is from presumably DWL so if anything the stats are skewed against whites. The source is from table 2 on page 8 of the document or page 6 as they have numbered it.
