Race, murder and the New York Times
The New York Times complains that 80% of the people who have been executed for murder in the United States had killed white people. The NYT seems to want to see an increase in the number of people executed for murdering black people. Of course, since the overwhelming majority of black murder victims in the United States are killed by fellow blacks, this would mean an increase in the number of black murderers being executed.

Good point. Hadn't thought of that one.
Someone should write the NYTs and make the obvious correlation to the Black on Black murder rate....you'd think the NYTs folks would not be this clueless, right?

All the NYT would do is complain that it is racist to notice that most black murder victims are killed by other blacks.
