Blacks Have a Criminal Mentality

[BillyBob]

Actually...it is intellectually dishonest.

No, actually it isn't.

You are using a 28 year average which does not translate into what is actually happening today. Better community policing and programs like NY Citys COPSTAT have dramatically reduced those rates that you put forth.

The latest stats from the DoJ site I referenced are only 5 years old.

Your link also references a report that is almost 3 years old and only uses data collected before 2008, so it leaves out valuable data pertaining to violent crime that has steadily dropped every year since 1993.

No, that site shows a drop in black criminal activity. They used to murder at a rate 10 times higher than whites.

so play your semantics all you like....

No semantics, just facts.

you obviously have a racial angle that you're playing here and you seem hell bent to incite a debate partitioned over racial lines pitting Blacks against whites.

You and the rest of the folks here are afraid to be honest. You'd rather make excuses for criminal behavior than to examine it honestly and discuss what might be done about it.

We're smarter then that here sir

Not from what I've seen.

and will not rise to your bait.

Ah, so now facts and statistics are 'bait'. lol

The rate today is much lower then your 28 year average.

I'd be willing to bet that rate has dropped to between 2.5 and 3 times

Link?

...not the 7 times that you are putting forth.

Not me, the Department of Justice. If you don't like their stats and record keeping, whine to them about it.
