[QUOTE="refineryworker05, post: 4917442, member: 66082"] What does race have to do with crime? I keep asking this simple question. Unless you are saying hey black people commit crime because there is some inherent black racial trait that causes them to be more criminal, I don't know what this is supposed to mean. What it means to me is that black Americans as a group experience social conditions in America that are vastly worse than other Americans, and if we really worried about crime, then may be improve the social conditions for black Americans. But the opposite position is American social problems are caused by what's collectively wrong within the black race, so until black Americans fix what's collectively wrong with them... basically the racist position again and again. A lot of Americans deeply believe that American social problems are caused by collective black racial failure The rest of your post is benign. Wow reducing crime means reducing the crimes that are committed. Wow black people don't want to be victims of crime... You don't say. [/QUOTE]
