Quote:You mean that not all of those muslim prisoners are guilty?No, and Muslim is a proper noun.
Quote:Or do you mean that there are far more criminals among muslims per capita than whites and that that's the reason why so many are in prison?No, it means the percentage of Muslims convicted of a crime and receiving a custodial sentence, is higher than the percentage of Muslims in the general population.
Now, how about you address your error that crime is increasing, when there is objective evidence that it has been decreasing across the board for 30 years, as was demonstrated in the citation I offered. and a second citation from another poster.
Well from what I've seen and from what people say, it is increasing. Do you have any graphs or anything showing otherwise?
