Quote of the Day

Ninety-three percent of black folk who are killed are killed by other black folk.  But 84 percent of white folk who are killed are killed by other white folk.  It's not necessary to modify the noun murder with the adjective black.  It happens in the white world too.  Where's the white-on-white crime rhetoric?  Where are the rants against white folk ruining white culture with their murderous ways?
