The fact is that black on black violence committed mostly by young black men, and most of that gang related, against other blacks skews the numbers to a point that the difference becomes significant.
Not so significant that anyone in authority seems prepared to address the underlying problems which lead to violence, largely because that would mean acknowledging those problems exist and the causes of them.
However, when young black men try to raise awareness of the issue through peaceful protest, they get vilified by the President.

Ah, it tends to come up when people are trying to deflect away from the problem people are trying to focus on or, you know, when there's a dishonest attempt to try and undermine the BLM movement.
