Again with the slavery thing. Have you read what I said?
As for Mexicans and Asians, they are a minority in this country and as with all minorities even going beyond race have a tendency to rebel at least in some portion of any given group that feels outside the "norm." And Some of these people hate the "majority" because perhaps they see them in control of nearly everything for obvious reasons and feel like they are being pushed around by that other group.

Nope i am just stating my opinion about why perhaps some Asians and Mexicans don't much like white people. I am definetley not condoning their actions. But i am saying that I can understand to some degree why some black people still hold a grudge against white people.

Quoting statistics is usless without proof, and in actually crimes statistics are complex, and varies by type of crime and who the offender and victim are.
Yes blacks commit certain types of crimes more but, whites also commit certain types of crimes more. Its all crime, poisoning your wife is not better then robbing someone at gun point or killing them. Its all wrong, so stop trying to make out one races crime as some how worse or better than anothers.
