maybe the 0.4 was from some tiny town in the Appalachia that just isn't into violence, or maybe it was a typo for 4.0. Even if you drop the lowest income group for both, rich blacks still have higher homicide rates than second poorest whites. personal experience doesn't mean jack, national statistics still showed blacks commit disproportional amount of crimes especially in violent crimes, maybe poor whites do commit more petty drug related crimes, but that doesn't really matter compared to murder, rape and armed robbery. couple of decades old? do you think that blacks suddenly improved their behaviors in the last 20 years even though the violent crimes stats are trending up?
