"African-Americans comprise the largest racial minority group among serial killers, representing approximately 20 percent of the total." Serial Killer Myth #6: They Are All White.Nope. 54% of serial killers were white men. Thats more than half of all serial killings.But how would he be upet when the numbers show whites are the gold medalist in the serial killer category
You have a problem with percentages of the population, don't you.
Read it and weep pal:
"Note that when discussing the race or sex percentages, it is important to look at trends across time," Aamodt told Business Insider via email. "For example, if you combine US serial killers across all decades, 52% of serial killers have been white [and] 40% black ... However, if you just look at the past three decades: 37% were white [and] 60% were black. A very different picture!"*
Here's a surprising look at the average serial killer
20% not 40%

A serial killer is defined as a person who kills 2 or more people at 2 different times, so like I said, if a man kills his wife then an hour later drives to his mother-in-law's house and kills her, according to the stats, he is a serial killer. According to how most people perceive it, he is not, but just a murderer.
