gitimaeaegument.The percentage of white crime is equal to the percentage of population. While percentage of black crime is over double of their population. What is your point other than the one on your head?
If we go by your simple minded assessment you are saying it's fine for whites to commit 70 percent of the crimes.
Simple minded assessment? What percentage of crimes do you think would be appropriate for whites to commit?
Yes it's a simple minded assessment. I don't think the argument that posits that if you commit 68 percent of all crimes somehow is less than the 28 percent the other group commits because that's less than your percentage of the population.
Anyone who says that 68% is less than 28% is clearly wrong.
However, I think the argument generally is about the comparison of crimes committed compared to percentage of the population.
And that's an illegitimate argument. There are over 300 million people here. So lets use 300 million as the number. 2.2 million blacks were arrested. That is less than 1 percent of the total American population. 5.8 million whites arrested is about 2 percent of the Amrcan population. These are the ONLY people that can be accurately counted in crimes. If a disproportionate number of blacks relative to our population in the NBA are black, that doesn't mean blacks are more predisposed to be basketball players. Therefore the comparison being made is only done because it's one way whites here can excuse or deny what they do in order to maintain a belief in white supremacy. Just like they do for every other issue we present.
I didn't make any comment about a higher percentage of blacks being arrested or convicted meaning blacks are more disposed to criminality.
