#16  My progressive daughter would say this is because of white privilage - whites get away with things blacks don't.

#13  Proof the police unfairly target blacks.

Sarcasm for me, but apparently da trut for some NFL players and their fellow travelers.

#12  No matter how bad the urban decivilization gets, I suspect hooded vigilante night riders will remain off the table.

#11  It would be interesting to see the same tables for victims as well as perps.

#10  If a third of blacks live in poverty that's about 4 percent of the population. Statistically they mark white poverty at 10 percent. That's about 7.5+ percent of the population. So, in raw numbers that means whites should be twice as numerous in the crime column as blacks if poverty was the only factor.

#9  Poverty is a result of not tackling and removing criminals from society fast enough.

#8  And in most of the crimes, what is the common denominator across all the race groups?

Poverty is only a result, not the core cause.

#7  It’s probably just a matter of time before such stat collection is deemed “racist” and outlawed.

I'm going with the SteveS recommendation of how to solve this racist/affirmative action problem. Send the money for my white thug training.

#6  No data by region. though.

#5  Amazing what you can find when the racist Obama administration isn't around to suppress data.

#4  It's only startling if you live under a rock. On the moon.

#3  So, “The Bell Curve” really is an inverse log function?

#2  Telling how the table is separated.

#1  Looking at the charts, whites are wildly underrepresented in all categories. Since we know that any difference in outcome is de facto racism, I propose an affirmative action program to help white men and women live up to their full criminal potential. This will require education, youth intervention for those who show no signs of criminality and on-the-job training programs. It will also require a big pile of dollars.

Stand back, gentlemen, there is money to be made!
