As I am writing this, South Carolina has removed the racist, Confederate flag from the State Capital grounds. A flag that ceased being the official flag of the South 139 years ago. So, now, blacks are safe from murdeingr racists whites. Right? The only problem is that statistically whites don't kill blacks. Blacks do.
According to FBI records, 2491 blacks were murdered in 2013. Only 189 offenders in those deaths were white. 2245 where black.
So, what flag do we need to take down to keep blacks from killing other blacks?
