In 1995, there were 10032 US murders having a single perpetrator and a single victim. Of these murders, Blacks committed 5175 (51.6%) and Whites committed 4476 (44.6%). The Black per capita murder rate was 7.6 times higher than the White per capita murder rate. There were at least 1149 interracial murders (11.5% of total murders), of which 743 were committed by Blacks (64.7% of interracial murders) and 331 were committed by Whites (28.8%).

Interracial murder ratios should be understood to be ratios of known interracial murders. No interracial murders were assumed to have happened when the race of either victim or murderer is unknown.
Hispanics were NOT removed from the "Whites" in these tables. See this page for why this is important. Somewhere between 18% and 38% of the violent crimes that the Justice Department attributes to "Whites" were committed by Latinos, Arabs, Jews or by a member of some other non-White ethnic group.
The Justice Department uses its "White" category as a racial miscellaneous bin. When I correct for the government's spic-loading the White offender totals, I usually assume that one-quarter of the crimes alleged to have "White" perpetrators were committed by some sort of brownish non-White.
The government can't make Whites out of non-Whites by passing laws or making policies, any more than it can change the value of p to 3.0000 for the convenience of engineers and architects. But they certainly have managed to impart confusion in the interpretation of their crime statistics—probably intentionally, don't you think?
When you remove the brownies from the "White" offender totals, the per capita rate ratio of Black-on-White murders to White-on-Black murders becomes (typically) about 23. This ratio is a measure of the relative higher capacity of Blacks for racial hatred and of the relatively higher propensity of Blacks toward violence, as compared with Whites.
Similarly, the per capita rate ratio of White-perpetrator murders to Black-perpetrator murders becomes (typically) about 9.5. This ratio is a measure of the relatively higher propensity of Blacks toward violence, as compared with Whites.
We divide the ratios to determine, as a plausible guess at least, that Blacks have about 23/9.5 = 2.4 times the capacity for hatred that Whites do.
Further, these data include only murders having a single perpetrator and a single victim. Most White killers are lone operators, whereas many Blacks kill in packs or gangs as a cooperative activity. If all murders were included, the proportion of Blacks among the perpetrators would be even higher than indicated above.
