Please don't call people deluded here just because they disagree with you. You are not the Almighty interpreter of Truth and neither am I.

But his comment was racist because he made a sweeping generalization about Black people. Generalizations like that are extremely disrespectful and offensive. I understand the OP probably intended no malice and was just stating a fact. But does that fact hold for Upper middle income Black communities? It primarily holds for young black youth living in the ghetto. Failure to distinguish the prime cause of crime makes the kind of statement the OP made racial.

Crime has its roots primarily in poverty. That's why people steal, burglarize and commit other crimes, including murder.
