Why specifically blacks
that's like saying "YOU MAN EVERYONE'S GOT PROBLEMS" to someone who's saying "My home was burned down with all my belongings"
But who gives a shit if they're black or not
I don't think they are getting any major prejudice
The police that shoot them more often
the people that don't hire them based off of race
First of black people take up 15% of the population in the US
and over 50% of the crime rate
no
Yes
around 1/4 of all crimes in the US are by black people
You do realize thats still double their proportion right
yes
I realize that
Black America has a lot of issues that do need to be adressed but it aint cops or them whites.
but 50% is not true though
Hm, could've sworn I got it somewhere
@Crasseus we should talk in voice
The 50% figure comes from violent crime statistics
I'll have to recheck it
I'm looking at a graph right now though
and it said "violence"
Post it
Whats the website
I'm in the debate voice chat
I'm on my phone
@Crasseus you wanna hop in voice chat
I can see how it could be over 50% if you cherry pick stats
408,873 241,063 153,341 7,378 5,755 1,336
the 153 number is blacks
I would but working
153,341/408,873 = 0.375
so about 37.5% of violent crime is commit by blacks according to the fbi crime tables
still a long shot from 50%
disproportionate
yes
not 50%
okay we can talk about this later
