There have been many black or dark skin-toned serial killers, spree killers, and mass murderers. For one reason or another, they don't tend to be sensationalized the way white serial killers do. Call it racism, marginalization, or any other fancy word. Just don't say that serial killers and mass murderers are white.

Younge, Jr. Ivan Hill Michael Vernon Chester Dewayne Turner Latina Williams Peter Odighizuwa Mark James Robert Essex Stanley "Tookie" Williams I don't doubt that this list is accurate. But it piques a certain curiosity: I have to wonder who would compile a list of black serial killers (or was it just serial killers, by race?). I presume you did not piece this together yourself bit by bit. Mind sharing with us the link to the source you used? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But we can't talk about this being a problem, because it might offend blacks. Sure we can, just provide some credible eveidence related to causation and correlation. You may want to look at income levels and social status and relate that to murder. You might find some stronger links. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy9o8 2 #29 November 12, 2009 If you don't causatively correlate that to income levels and social status, John, to what do you attribute it? If you have your own theory (or belief), please tell us specifically what it is. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
