Entry: Down the Memory Hole Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/down_the_memory_hole#29818 Post contents: "Based on current rates of first incarceration, an estimated 32% of black males will enter State or Federal prison during their lifetime, compared to 17% of Hispanic males and 5.9% of white males." http://www.ojp.usdoj.gov/bjs/crimoff.htm http://www.ojp.usdoj.gov/bjs/glance/cv2.htm Violent crime is 2 to 4 million incidents per year. About half is by blacks. Over 72 years that means 72 million to 144 million by blacks. There are about 18 million black males. (1/2 o f 12 percent of 300 million) 72 million over 18 million is 4 violent acts in the lifetime of an "average" black male. At the higher range its 8 violent acts per lifetime of each black male.
