According to reports, Lester then shot Yarl twice through the door, wounding him in the head and the arm. According to Clay County prosecutor Zachary Thompson, \u201cI can tell you there was a racial component.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This fact pattern immediately sent the salivary glands of the media and the Biden administration into overdrive. Drooling with excitement, the media headlined the Yarl shooting for days; President Biden himself immediately invited Yarl, who survived, to the White House.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The reason for the journalistic and political feeding frenzy is clear: for the political Left, the narrative of white supremacy must be maintained. What\u2019s more, shocking examples of that narrative must be found. Yarl\u2019s shooting fit the bill. Americans are supposed to believe, as Yarl\u2019s attorney put it, that \u201cblackness is under attack.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This is a lie. Not only is it a lie, it is a blatantly idiotic and devastatingly counterproductive lie. That lie provides the impetus toward undercutting police presence in high-crime areas; it provides the basis for racially discriminatory governmental policies; it provides the foundation for the argument that all disparities between the races are the result of white discrimination.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The truth is far more troubling: in America, while most violent crime is intra-racial (white on white or black on black, for example), in cases in which blacks and whites have violent interaction, blacks are overwhelmingly the perpetrators, not the victims.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In 2019, for example, 3,299 white Americans were murdered; 566, or 17%, were killed by black perpetrators. That same year, 2,906 black Americans were murdered; 246, or 8%, were killed by white perpetrators. Adjusted for population size \u2013 there are far more whites in America (235 million) than blacks (47 million) \u2013 this means that approximately one out of every million white Americans killed a black person in 2019, while 12 out of every million black Americans killed a white person. Such numbers are reflective of a norm: every year from 2001 on, the number of black-on-white killings has approximately doubled the number of white-on-black killings. When it comes to violent crime generally, the same sad truth applies. In 2019, there were 562,550 reported violent black\/white incidents. 472,570 were black on white \u2013 84%.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The media routinely ignore these facts, since they don\u2019t fit the narrative. In fact, the media have a general tendency not to even mention the race of perpetrators of crimes if those perpetrators are black. The people harmed most by this narrative failure are not white Americans, but black Americans, who are predominantly the victims of black crime. According to the Department of Justice, \u201cIn 2018, based on data from the FBI\u2019s Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program, black people were overrepresented among persons arrested for nonfatal violent crimes (33%) and for serious nonfatal violent crimes (36%) relative to their representation in the U.S. population (13%).\u201d The vast majority of victims were black.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Understanding the facts about interracial crime presents different solutions than the lies we hear about the prevalence of white-on-black violence. Those solutions include encouraging fatherhood in the home. Only 37% of black children are living in a home with their biological parents, 72% of black fathers aren\u2019t married to the mother of their children, and only 4.2% of black children grow up in areas with a poverty rate below 10% and over half of black fathers present in the community.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">But such discussions never take place if we focus on a lie: the lie that black victims are disproportionately the victim of white evils. Those who promulgate that lie victimize all Americans, black and white.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week, a 16-year-old boy named Ralph Yarl \u2013 black \u2013 accidentally rang the doorbell of an 84-year-old white man, Andrew Lester.
