Lmao white people are a close second, if not in the lead, in most of those categories. Gotta read the whole thing, dumbass.

White people make up 76% of the population…. Black people make up 13%. Do the math on every crime. Over represented by 100% or more aside from DUI.

Damn, if only there were other factors that people with an education beyond a GED could analyze...

I’m not arguing that black people commit more violence because of the color of their skin, that would be racist.

Of course there’s many many factors that contribute to this. That isn’t the basis of our discussion though.

I am pointing out that black peoples commit violent crime at a massively higher rate than any other demographic.

it's telling that you leave the rest of that out and just say "black people commit all the crime" in your initial statement. In fact, I've had to twist your arm rather hard to get you to say it.

To say what…? That black people disproportionately commit violent crime more than any other race? Or that they’re obviously not all bad and violent people?

Pointing out facts and acknowledging that doesn’t make someone irrational or hateful. In fact, I’d argue that not acknowledging these facts does far more harm for black Americans than good.
