    Race Statistics
AI Thread Summary
Homicide statistics from the U.S. Department of Justice reveal significant racial disparities, with Black individuals having a homicide offense rate of 39.3 per 100,000 compared to 5.1 for Whites. The data also shows that the majority of Black homicide victims are killed by other Black individuals. Discussions highlight that similar racial crime patterns are observed in other countries, suggesting a global trend. The conversation touches on the socioeconomic factors influencing crime rates, particularly in melting pot countries like the U.S., Canada, and the UK. Overall, the discourse emphasizes the need for a nuanced understanding of crime statistics and their implications across different racial and ethnic groups.

Isn't there also a possibility that the simplest explanation is the best explanation? Like the fact that it just comes down to sheer numbers, that give the impression of high statistics?One also needs to consider that the social relationship in respect of the proximity of numbers, i.e. people staying in overpopulated areas aggravate the onset of 'fighting for personal space'. Nature somehow takes over in protecting personal space. Stood in a crowded bus or subway lately? How did you feel after 10 minutes? Could you actually last that long with all that body pressure, sight and smell around you?
I am willing to take social factors into consideration. However, what I will not do as of yet, is dismiss the genetic factor completely where there is so much ample evidence for it.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAH….

As I said, I do not expect to alter BV ingrained opining, which he erroneously thinks is scientific. I am more concerned with those whites who are on the fence in regards to issues of race. BV has totally FAILED to prove his case. The Case study that I gave CLEARLY repudiates the application of this racist theory. He then says that Southfield black population is too small to make it valid. Southfield has about 40,000 African Americans. The unemployment rate for 280 million American are figures that come out every month from the our government is actually a sampling from ONLY 50,0000 households, why cannot. Now….get this…he is the one who just argued the validity of statistical sampling in the testosterone study that he used to extrapolate a truth for the entire black population. Hahahahahahahahahaha…. Also, never mind the fact that Southfield borders Detroit and that Detroit residents often commit crimes, such as car jacking, robbery and murder in easier suburban targets….Like Southfield. My good friends brother (the lord rest their souls), was killed in Southfield about 10 years ago in an Armored truck robber committed by a Detroit resident.

I don’t have anymore time to waste on ignorance. If the rest of the whites viewing and reading these post cannot see the glaring fallacy of BV’s argument…maybe most of you too deserve the label of racist…which you hate to have linked to you. As the old adage goes…the truth HURTS

This conversation has truly been Amerikkkan.

I'm going to close this now.

*edit* people want to know why the thread is closed: everyone had the chance to express their opinion, when a thread degrades to one-sentence-statements and personal remarks and becomes heated, there is a reason to close it.
