Black people don't make Black on Black crime a priority, because crime is significantly down in the Black Community. It has gone down every year since 1994, so it's a significant downward tend. So every year, black and black crime impacts black people less and less. Hence this is why the average black is becoming less and less impacted by black on black crime. This also means that on average less and black people know victims of perpetrators of black on black crime as well. So if something doesn't directly impact someone, then this means that in general people aren't going to prioritize it. Statistically speaking, there is no way on average black people would know a victim of black on black violence, or have any association with black on black violence.
So one would ask next "well why are black incarceration rates so high?" And this is simple. Black incarceration rates almost all come from drug abuse or distribution of drugs. These are mostly non-violent offenses.
Now in terms of Black Lives Matter. Is the average black person harassed by police?
Here are some interesting statistics. Blacks are more likely to be stopped by police, but even this number is 12%. But we we can tell, that the numbers are nearly the same in terms of traffic stops. However blacks are more likely to be search, which will cause a bad situations.
However 12% isn't enough to be an epidemic. So I would say Black Lives Matter really has no purpose for existing either. This does not mean that Black On Black crime should be a priority for black people either.
I would say black people should focus more on education, and economics. Since the real issue for black people mostly seem to be government expansion, and the government killing blacks ability to grow and start businesses. This cause generational poverty, which is a symptom for all of the other issues we talk about.
So we really do have to thank Bill and Hillary Clinton for going along with the Republican Congress and passing those getting tough on crime acts?
Super-predators were actually a thing?
Interesting hypothesis you have there. I like it.
Yes crime is down all around, but the rates for violent crimes are still astronomically high in the black community compared to white, Hispanics and Asians. Why is that?

It's not astronomical. It's higher, but still low relative to the overall black population. So this means that it probably wouldn't impact black people as a whole, but it would impact a segment of the black population. So we should revise our directive. We should first identify under what circumstances black on black crime would be high, and we should drill down on this specific symptom.
What you will find among the segment of blacks who have high crime rates is the following. You will find a lot of government assisted living, and you will find generational poverty. So we should focus on trying to combat this.

How much higher? How does that compare to other races?
OP shows the disconnect between white elite liberals and real black people.
But real black people keep voting for those "white elite liberals", by wide margin.
