Donald Trump Tweets Inaccurate Stats About Black-on-Black Crime
A day after Donald Trump could be heard yelling "get him the hell out of here" while a Black Lives Matter protester was "shoved, tackled, punched & kicked" at a rally in Birmingham, Alabama, according to CNN reporter, Jeremy Diamond, but it appears the billionaire could be receiving more flak after tweeting an anti-black propaganda tweet that gave invalid statistics from a false source. On Nov. 22, the 69-year-old Republican presidential candidate tweeted a fake source that highlights false stats on "blacks killed by police" and "blacks killed by blacks."
San Francisco's "The Crime Statistics Bureau" as cited by Trump's official Twitter page does not exist. In comparison, an official document from the FBI database shows that 82 percent of white murders were done by whites. This is a drastic difference than Trump's original tweet, which claims only 16 percent of whites were killed by whites.
The ill-informed presidential prospect also seems to believe that 81 percent of white homicides were committed by blacks, however statistics show that only 14 percent were committed by black offenders. What do you think about Donald Trump's tweets? Sound off in the comments.
