I just saw a chart the other day.  Black males are far and away the most
killed group in America.  White females were at the bottom of the list I
believe.

[This was a chart in this week's (or last) Newsweek showing the *rate*
of death by murder among black men, black women, white men, and white
women.  The rate has remained constant for the last three groups over
the last (one or two) decades; it has climbed almost exponentially for
black males.  Drugs, especially crack, appear to be the main reason. --CLT]
