Keep posting stats if that makes you happy, but I've got that. But it seems your argument is that the higher crime rate of blacks is based on blacks' racism or somehow proves black racism. Yet, the percentage of victims of these crimes (ones perpetrated by blacks) are disproportionately black.
Let's say you have a population of dots. Seventy % of the dots are yellow and 30% of the dots are green. Let's say the green dots commit more crime but let's also say they cannot see color, so they just randomly commit crimes on other dots. So if they just randomly commit crimes, you would expect about 70% of their victims to be yellow dots and 30% of their victims to be green dots. If the green dots are totally colorblind, you would expect that result regardless of how often the yellow dots commit crime on the green dots. |
You are missing the whole point of this thread. This thread is a response to the narrative that claims blacks are constantly victimized by whites, when the reverse is true. Nothing more. |
They should publicize those stats. the next time a riot or protest occurs. If they can produce similar stats then we could talk. |

The media may be off in their narrative, but being the victim of racial discrimination is not defined by just being a crime victim. |

thats exactly true bonnie , but in some cases its a big part of it. Reginald Denny and the Dylan shooting are classic cases of when it is. |
