She's not saying that white v. white is a racial issue -- my understanding is that she's saying there is more white-on-white and black-on-black violence than black-on-white or white-on-black violence, and that the type of violent acts committed by "young Black males" is the type that you hear about in the media. I think she's right, but I haven't researched the issue -- you just don't hear about the white guy who beats his wife on the 10:00 news, though, do you?
