That's where I have a problem. I understand your calculations precisely but my 
argument was that since there are more whites to kill than there are blacks it 
only seems logical that the minority population would kill more majority. Your 
logic would seem to state that blacks should be killing blacks and whites 
killing whites. Some crimes aren't done out of hate just lunacy and as a result 
of others. Blacks have a higher crime rate (and I'll leave the reasons up in 
the air) and whites tend to be in a higher socioeconomic standing so chances 
are a black criminal is more likely to rob a white victim and kill them as a 
result.

There was a further point I'd like to make but I couldn't find the source to 
help me enforce it and the link your provided was broken
