Check out this source: http://www.bjs.gov/content/pub/pdf/fv9311.pdf.

Page 2 - total homicides in the US in 2011 - 11,101

Page 5 bottom left hand graphic: blacks are 90% (as I read the graph) of the victims.

That makes his numbers pretty close or maybe low.

Also, did anyone else not get "soopermexican" and "theblaze" as hints that this article was, er, overblown? But still making a good point about wailing and gnashing. (There, I just like to say "gnash" and now I have).
