Re: Whites make up 80% of the population. Blacks only 10%. Whites have more homicides; however, the black rate of homicide is many times higher. Well, I know this is going to come as a real shocker to you... nonwhite Americans, especially blacks, suffer most from racism and discrimination in school, the workplace, and the judiciary. Hence their higher crime rate: Message 21676182 However, I still don't get your bizarre argument that it's somewhat unfair for me to factor in the US's NONWHITE crime/homicide rate when comparing Europe's and the US's crime/homicide statistics...Are you insinuating that nonwhite statistics shouldn't be taken into account when analyzing US statistics? Do nonwhite criminals, murderers, felons, etc., belong to some other country, some parallel universe different from white America? If so, let's apply your warped (I stop short of calling it "racist") sociology to the immigration issue: The US is currently in the throes of a swelling illegal immigration, mainly from Mexico and Latin America --or is it? Well, not according to Dr Tejek's white-only sociology! It's really unfair for me to factor in those millions of nonwhite immigrants from Latin America when comparing Europe's immigration crisis with the US's. Indeed, according to you Tejek, I should restrict my analysis to the WHITE immigration to the US... Oh, Good Lord! How rosy, how blissful the US picture suddenly looks: Irish, British, German, Scandinavian, Dutch and Polish --even Jewish-- immigrants have all fared so well in the US! Who said there was an immigration problem in the US?!? Just do like Tejek: factor out nonwhite data and see how blissful lily-white America looks.... Gus
