Margaret King 1st- Trump Tweets False Statistics

Donald Trump has recently tweeted a picture that shows the statistics of homicides based on race in 2015 according to the "Crime Statistics Bureau - San Francisco." Here is the image he posted:
2015-11-23 11_56_07-Donald J. Trump on Twitter_ __@SeanSean252_ @WayneDupreeShow @Rockprincess818 @C.png
The first thing wrong with this picture that the "source" does not exist. Several news organizations have reported saying that there is no such thing as the "Crime Statistics Bureau - San Francisco." The second thing wrong is that these are numbers supposedly for 2015 when it is only November so there is no released information on the subject. The third and most important thing wrong with this image is that, according to 2014 approved statistics from the FBI, every single percentage in this picture is incorrect.
