the fallacy being that this fact is based on the race of the subject

yeah... no.

Best way to illustrate why this is wrong

is to turn away from 'frameable' crimes

and describe murder rates per community.

At least from what I've found.

i was raised by a single - physically handicapped - mom and i never got in trouble with police. granted the society is different here... but that would make my point...

That's detatched by a couple degrees by the argument at hand.

And, in fact, might be used by someone debating against you as an own goal.

how?

Assuming that you're white, that would be the determining factor as to why you never had trouble with the police.

That's part of the thing

you recognize the risk factors that lead to crime

that's quite evident in your argument

the determening factor would be that i never did anything illegal

but the ones arguing white privilege don't recognize the risk factors that lead to high crime

The root of their argument is white patriarchy, generally.

even if you go down to an actual root, they implant that reason one layer below.

there is no layer below not doing anything illegal to not get into trouble with the police

It's the argument for god but with white privilege.

Also, did you absolutely never do anything that was ever illegal, or did you just never do anything illegal and get caught?

I can admit that I've done things in my past that I could've gotten in serious trouble for, but didn't.

i stole lego when i was like... 7?

And the reason I didn't get in trouble wasn't because I was white

trespassing on military property (with the boyscouts...)

other than that... i don't remember ever doing anything illegal, no.

The reason was because the police in my area are accustomed to low crime

Teenage years, let me tell you...

heck... i managed to not do anything illegal while wearing all black at a protest...

You marched black bloc once?

Don't worry, I'm not going to go Aussie Aryan and say you're hopeless or anything, lol.

Clearly you're here. 😛

i did not cover my face and marching is too... well... i was at a protest with black bloc and was wearing all black...

I was actually involved in an early Black Lives Matter march.

before or after they turned full on racist?

I was coming home from a comic book shop I hung out at sometimes, and there was a march going down the street

Mmmmm

They were founded in racism.

in my opinion, it was always there

it just became more well documented with time

yeah... might be...
