Murders in NYC by ethnicity, 2003-2011


The graphic from the New York Times is very much in line with this article:

European Murder Rates Compared to the United States: Demographics vs Guns

The article shows that the difference in murder rates between developed European countries and the United States is accounted for by differences in the demographics of cultural groups. Gun laws or the rate of gun ownership does not correlate to murder rates.
