Haha, those sure are some kooky crime statistics you got there!, where are those from, the FBI?
Well, did you know that FBI crime statistics only track those that are successfully convicted of a crime, even though the vast majority of crimes committed aren’t even reported, let alone lead to a successful arrest, prosecution, and conviction?
Sounds like a big hole in the data if you ask me!
And when you combine that with the fact that black neighborhoods have been more heavily policed from the start due to hate and assumptions that come from racism, racism that didn’t publicly die down until the 1980’s, black people are more likely to get stopped by police, and more likely to be convicted by a jury for the same crimes as a white person, it makes you think that maybe those FBI stats have a lot more to do with systemic racial profiling than some sort of innate behavior in black people!
Also to note that decades of systematic racism forced minorities into areas of low-value real estate, poor access to basic services, low quality schools, sub-par public transportation and abysmal infrastructure.
And to add onto that, areas with high poverty are more likely to have high crime due to the design of a capitalistic society, but hey, everything has its flaws, right?
So it’s not a racial issue but more a societal issue. It doesn’t take too much math to observe that the richer a community becomes, the less everyday crimes like robberies, battery, rape, murder etc. happen.
Bad environments are more likely to create bad people, regardless of race.
Now then, I would implore you to stop quoting out of context statistics.
