So your counter-point to the point about discussing black crime issues was to ask why we were not discussing white crime issues instead.

I understand. Basically, your post was not meant to actually add to the debate, just to derail it.

Got it.

Carry on.

If by derail you mean expose its flawed reasoning, then yes.

The flaw is that you believe there is no point in discussing black crime issues? Like it does not exist? Are you saying that we cannot discuss black crime issues without also discussing white, asian and hispanic crime issues because they are all the same?

I have a problem with trying to blame just one socio-economic factor for all crimes and apply that to an entire race. It's such a stupid train of thought it makes me wonder why you're defending it.
 
In the UK there's no difference, and I'm not just saying that. It was insane to me how big the divide between black and white people is in America, didn't believe it until I saw it first hand. It's insanity. How this race divide is still so ingrained in the US of A is beyond me.

1. I missed where someone was "trying to blame just one socio-economic factor for all crimes and apply that to an entire race". In fact, the OP was a question, not a statement.

2. I am not defending anything. I was responding to your post about why the discussion was focused on blacks and not whites. If you would shut up, I could discuss the actual subject of this thread (or is your whole point to derail the discussion?).

You don't want to start that war. You can't deny that Blacks commit more crime than any other group. You can't deny the recent events of mobs of blacks robbing stores, having beat whitey nights, just recently a mob of them had a beat whitey night at the WI state fair.

The OP is based off some random number found on a blog post and stereotypes. And plain stupidity.
 
Ok, after reading the posts in this threads I'm having a hard time spotting the racists, can you guys just put your hands up please?

So there is no black crime problem in the U.S.?

It is not OK to ask if there is a similar problem in the U.K.?

It is not OK to ask why (or if) the U.S. black crime problem is similar (or different) in the U.K.?

We should simply not discuss the black crime issue because, as far as you are concerned, it does not exist?

I'm not stopping you from asking anything. I'm adding caution, because if this thread comes up with just one reason for any black crime, it will still be wrong. The issue of crime in any group is extremely complex, yet this thread intends to box a group in based upon nothing more than conjecture. And that is stupid.

This will teach you more about black crime than a blog post:

Cops is anxious to put niggas in handcuffs.
They wanna hang us, see us dead, enslave us,
Keep us trapped in the same place we're raised in.
Then they wonder why we act so outrageous,
Run around stressed out and pull out gauges.
Cause everytime you let the animal out cages,
It's dangerous to people who look like strangers.

You were not adding caution. You stated that the thread was stupid because it only talked about black crimes and not white crimes.

Stupid thread.

What about when five white kids beat up a black kid in London:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_of_Stephen_Lawrence

I didn't see you post a stupid thread musing over the origin of white on black hate crimes.

Why is it not OK to talk about the origins of the black crime problem?

It may be from a blog but I don't need a Phd to know that blacks commit a disproportionate number of crimes in the us.
It is the overseas numbers (and reasons) I'm unfamiliar with which is the point of the thread.

Learning about other countries is wrong. You should only learn things about your own country.
