What this chart fails to recognize is unsolved murders. These are only the ones that are solved. So it is safer to say that more black men GET CAUGHT murdering then to say more black men murder. This could be partially do to the unfair scrutiny of the police, but they don’t tell you that part, now do they?
I’ve tried to get statistics on unsolved homicides, but there are none to be found! That must be a statistic they don’t want you to have!
another problem I noticed with the above statistics…

ok, now take this table listed below which completely conflicts that table above:

According to this in some instances there are more white homicide offenders then blacks. Where is that in the table listed above? Something is definately fishy about those statistics. There arent that many more white people then blacks. Don’t believe everything you read tyler.
yes they do come seeking employment untill they see my friends car… a means of accumulation of wealth… without work, this is wrong. you can’t blame crime on poverty. my dad was a poor farm boy… he worked his ass off to go to college. then when he found a decent job he still worked hard and created a good living for his wife and kids! poverty is just a means of justifying theift. you don’t need to drive a BMW but since the ILLEGAL imagrant drives a honda from the 80’s it is ok for him to steal the car. but i’m taking about more than just theift, murder, rape this is what concerns me. these border hoppers don’t want to start form the bottom(what capitalism demands, but the beauty of it is you get what you give, these people need to work, and save so they can get an education, but no this is far too much work. half the mexicans at my high school drop out before their junior year.
do you think they dropped out to join a gang or go steal cars? most of them dropped out because their families are poor and they need to go to work (and at 16 are employable). Does this screw them over in the end? Yep. But there is no reason to attack their characters because they are actually trying to help support their families at a young age. Hell, it seems to me that these are the type of people who should have more opportunities to get a higher education… who would you rather have a state sending to school, a drunken frat boy or a kid with such a sense of familial responsibility that he is willing to sacrifice his own future so that his family has food on the table and an apartment to sleep in. This is where I become fully in favor of a social safety net… when people work as hard as they can, and they still cannot afford what i consider to be the basics (home, food, clothing, education, health care).
it isn’t about black-white-mexican-dominican-puerto rican-british-japanese-australian. I’ve heard this same rubbish before Tyler. Except that it was in german, and a guy that looked like Charlie Chaplin was saying it in reference to Jews.
the problem isn’t the race but the culture. I bet my left testicle that if ten white men were raised in that same environment. The same percentage of them will commit the same crime.
I am not going to sit here and try to defend the poor. I have no race in my eyes. I just went through a severe debate with my own cousin on a similar topic on TMR. And what I took from that is simple. Yes you must look at their conditions, but everyone that comes from ‘da hood’ can still make their own choices.
ummm, no right to be, okay. Tell again the story of the native Americans and the colonists. Tell the part where the Native Americans sent an email inviting them over.
