So, how many instances of white people committing horrific crimes against other people do I have to link to to write off the entire white "race," or do the crimes only count if they are against non-whites, regardless of whether they live in a mostly white area?

The only "sub-group" that the perpetrators of this crime can be put in is that labelled "violent felons," and they come in all shapes, shades and sizes.

This is an Epidemic.
The fact of the matter is that blacks make up only about 14% of the population, but committ over 60% of the violent crimes..

I would agree that it is an "epidemic", but not based on race, but culture. Growing up in the hoods can pull anyone under.
The problem is the culture that pervades the black population.

The vast majority of which are "black on black" crimes, and are directly related to the failed war against illicit substances, not that it puts some people off using the stats to justify their own "need" for a gun.
The other races are not seeing this kind of dysfunction in THESE proportions...
most blacks cannot accept corrective criticism.

And, generally, I would agree. However, again, there seems to be nothing inherently wrong with black people, in that they simply cannot control themselves. The problem is the culture that has taught them to not respect laws or authority.edit on 23-8-2013 by TsukiLunar because: (no reason given)

You said this not far upthread.

Is that one of those vague generalisations, or do you have solid research to back it up?

Yes, (again) it is a generalization, as there are blacks who CAN accept it..these are the blacks that go on to be succesful and educated, because they were not afraid to acknolwedge the wrong path that they were going down (if they were going down a wrong path at all).
(I just explained this 'WHOLE of a group thing)
Yes, the solid research is the statistics of the black welfare population...when THIS PARTICULAR segment of blacks are told to get a job, they retort by becoming the victim and calling the person 'racist'. The evidence in this is the ratio of blacks on wefare withthin the black population alone.
When young black males are told to get an eduaction, a job, and leave the gang culture, this too is ignored. The evidence in this is the crime and jail population within the black popuation alone.
