Hey I tried to use fbi stats in a convo like this a few months ago and got called out with comments of the fbi figures being bullshit.Simply not true.

And the whole "what constitutes a crime" thing has already been addressed.

And why are people always making this black vs whites? Showing stats on Latinos, blacks, Asians, whites, men, women paint a full picture.
Notice a category missing there bub? If you want to do a whites vs. minorities comparison, you shouldn't post stats on whites plus Hispanics vs. black people. Also, note that these are "arrests", not convictions. But anyway if you want to use arrests as the metric: isn't it quite telling that blacks, by themselves, despite being about 13% of the population are still higher in murder and robbery? And their rates would be higher in all those catagories if you take population into account.
Aren't Latinos the second highest population in the us? That surely skews things there sir
Do you background check your sources?
I'll bite. How?Aren't Latinos the second highest population in the us? That surely skews things there sir
Because you're trying to make a point with skewed data. Whites and Latinos vs black crime shows what? Nothing really.I'll bite. How?

Find data that has white (non Latino), Asians, blacks, Latinos. That would be more helpful

Whatever you say.I can't believe that Denny is this dense. I told him flat out that his numbers added whites and hispanics together under one category. And he's trying to pretend that he doesn't understand how that is relevant to this discussion?

You're not going to like it.
Not going to like what? I posted that same link a few months ago and got told that was a bullshit source. It's pretty obvious a race that is 62percent of the us should have more crime instances. The scary thing is when a race that is 13 percent or 17 percent commit more crimes than the majority. And it would be in our best interests to understand why and fix ithttps://www.fbi.gov/about-us/cjis/u...f_vicitm_by_race_and_sex_of_offender_2013.xls

I can't believe I'm this dense.
Says the dog who insists the oceans are dead.I can.
Those numbers were from the Bureau of Justice. I suppose anyone who argues with the narrative that Blacks are oppressed, or points out the fact that they have problems of their own doing will be labeled a "racist". Do you really think blacks are convicted of violent crimes at a much higher rate simply because of poverty and racism?Whatever you say.
Cite me some more neo nazi and KKK sources.

See any bias there?
BLM is all about fixing the problem.
Ok, now SlyPockerDog is ruining our friendly discussion by editing my insults.
You're just wrong.Right, I have heard plenty of them talking about ending the war on drugs......................not.
Now you're just pulling stuff out of your ass. BLM is about an imaginary epidemic of police targeting black people to kill because they hate black people. The numbers prove this is bullshit. If anything, they are shot less than you'd expect.
I'm all for ending the war on drugs. If their cause were about ending the war on drugs I'd be all for it (though I would not agree with their methods).
You're preaching to the choir on the war on drugs, I think its ridiculous. It does look like there's a big time race disparity on that issue, since I don't believe that black people use drugs so much more often than whites. I imagine it's the way police target black people.
You almost got it right. Fixed it for you.
Some are just trying to get their drug arrests up, so they target black people because they think they'll be gang members who deal drugs. It's a bad system. But it's not like they are rampantly framing black people for murder and robbery. Black people commit a lot more crime.
Making it into a race problem when it's not doesn't solve the problem. It's bad for our society.This kind of thing may have been matched, somewhat, by the internment of Japanese by FDR.

Sure, that was ~100 years ago. It was one of many many horrific destruction of black enterprise, family, opportunity, etc. the Japanese internment was for a few years, and they were paid reparations for the damage done to them.
This was 50 years ago.
