So, you measure how "bad" it is based on how many people they impact?

Those loss of billions of dollars by hundreds (or thousands) of people is certainly impacting lots of people. I just don't think any amount of money is equal to a productful human life.

figure in the social impact-divorces, debt, crime, suicide, institutionalization. apply the domino affect and you find that it ruins or ends many, many productive human lives. not just one. You really get the moral equivelant of serial murder.

i think the statistics are photoshopped cause mexicans do everything. >🙁

I don't think anyone knows yet or will for a long while. Millions of people lost their life savings. Think about it.

Yeah, if they have such a large "unknown" category as to render the thing statistically meaningless, then they shouldn't publish it.
It's just their stats. That's the information they got. Why in the world would they not state them? And like I said it is hardly meaningless. It seems to me you are knee jerking into dismissing this because you fear racist undertones. I don't think that was the intention though. Granted it can be misused as that, ignorantly imo, but that doesn't mean that those statistics shouldn't be made publicly available.

I agree with Darth Jello about the severity of the crimes being an interesting points, and I also agree with whoever said it about the cause of them being a factor. But those are all things that are possible to be discussed. Those stats are a starting off point, perhaps not even the best, but a decent enough one, now they can be debated. Outright dismissing everything though and basically trying to kill any conversation on the subject seems silly.

Though no one seems to have mentioned that these stats are about homicides only. Not crime in general.

MILLIONS?

Are you sure?

I sort of did. That's why my first post was citing that other study on violence/crime. I didn't see this as anything BUT homocide.

Those statistics, or that trend has been around for years - what this chart is not showing is the social class of offenders, ie those who live in poverty are more likely to be a victim or a perpetrator.

One in three black people live in poverty, so that can/does correspond.

Murder is only a point of view.

No, that's actually well defined by law. (Which were based on point of views.)

You may be referring to the intentions behind "homicide" being debatable.

The FBI is retarded.

WTF is the "Unknown" race?
There's a race we haven't heard before? Must be the Reptilians.

Unknown race is when the race of the criminal is not known. They have to include that in order to get the number of crimes committed correct.

If that's the case, then they'd have to incorporate an estimate of unreported or unfound homicides, too.

Years ago there were like five or so guys on death row, the governor of the state exonerated them. All black guys.

Again, Moral Turpitude. It separates crimes of desparation, passion, and stupidity from crimes of intended malice.

i dont know why blacks whine about getting accused of crime more when they can get a job easier than whites

every major corporation or business is required to hire so many blacks and latinos. so if your white and you go to a group job interview and theres some blacks or latinos there as well 7 out of 10 they will get the position before you. especially if the gender is female

Wow, calling you an ignorant racist would be predictable.

I'll just lay the less obvious truth on you. You fell for Richard Nixon's scheme.

False.

A job application expirement was done. It rather thoroughly proved that "white" sounding names got twice as many callbacks as "black" sounding names, when applying for jobs. (Resumes were equal, of course.)

No. That's only if they comply with Affirmative Action initiatives. Did you know that some states made AA illegal? Did you know that some African Americans, including Cheif Justice Clarence Thomas, oppose AA?

You're confusing the motives and philosphies of AA with equal opportunity employment.

or, in other words...

YOU GOT DICKED!!!!!

It is actually considerably worse than that

studies show that interviewers are more engaged, polite and friendly with white over black applicants during an interview, including scenarios where the interviewer was also black. That these biases would remain when the interviewer knows they are being assessed (though not for racial bias, deception would have been used in the study) is further telling of the obstacles faced by black people when searching for employment.
