Toisaalta suurin osa mustiin kohdistuvasta väkivallasta Yhdysvalloissakin on _mustien itsensä_ suorittamaa, joten pointti hämärtyy.
Crimes such as robbery, murder, rape, and taxi violence are increasingly characterised by the use of firearms. Of the 18,312 murders reported in 1994, 7,083 involved guns. Of the 68,320 reported robberies, 43,270 were committed with firearms. Despite the popular misconception, most of these firearms are the more common pistols and revolvers - not automatic weapons like AK-47s. Automatic weapons were used in only 458 of the 7,083 murders reported in 1994, for instance, compared to 5,872 murders committed with pistols and revolvers.
