Some instance I wanted to share with you

This shit, is why I endeavor to exclude rather than understand.

You have no idea which other thread I was talking about or the context of what I was talking about.  You just like to pointless join in shouting racist.

I'll inform you and get you up to date with the topic you joined in on while lacking any info about what you're talking about.

In another thread someone said something along the lines of..."I have no problem with people saying black people commit more crime if that's what statistics show, but people have to also acknowledge the causes of this, such as poverty."

Abaris then said "But they don't commit more crime, at least according to statistics I've seen."

So what I'm asking is to see these statistics that show that black people commit equal or less crimes than white people despite having on average less income than white people.

If this is true, and I'm not saying it isn't I'd just like to see the statistics if it is, then this would make black people as a whole more law abiding than white people, if they are economically in a position that makes them more prone to crime yet still just commit equal or less crime than white people.

But this seems to contradict where the best and worst places to live in America are and the racial demographics of those places. And I don't think I've ever seen statistics that show black people committing less or equal crime on average either.


Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

Impersonation is treason.
