This will be the third time I've shown you how poverty level relates to crime by race: [Image: 402199_5_.jpg]
If you're in denial about this data, nothing I say is going to faze you at all.
Yes, it is trivial that more white, solely by numbers, perpetrate more crime...there's so many more of them. The real question is how much crime do they perpetrate as a percent of their demographic population. There, huge racial disparities exist, even controlling for equivalent poverty. That literally means that blacks are more prone to crime.
But you just go on believing your feel good propaganda about how its just poverty....in the face of dissimilar outcome for Hispanics who are just as poor.
"What Poverty and Crime Statistics Look Like in the United States
People living in households in the US that have an income level below the Federal poverty threshold have more than double the rates of violent victimization compared to individuals in high-income households.
Individuals who live in poverty are more likely to report a crime than those who do not live in poverty, but more than half of all crime is believed to go unreported to local law enforcement.
When people live in households that are struggling with poverty, they also have a higher rate of violence that involves a firearm at 3.5 per 1,000 people compared to 0.8-2.5 per 1,000 people in middle-to-high income families.
For both whites and blacks/African-Americans in the US, the overall pattern of being in poverty with the highest rates of victimization was consistent. For Hispanics and Latinos, violent victimization is relatively equal across all income levels.
Hispanics in the US who are living in poverty have nearly half the rates of violent victimization when compared to poor whites. Even poor blacks/African-Americans have a lower rate of violent victimization in poverty compared to whites.
Urban poverty increased the risks of violence and crime for US households, but did not change the racial risk factors. Whites are the most at risk in an urban poverty household to experience crime, at a rate of 5.64%. Blacks/African-Americans had the second highest level of risk for experiencing crime in urban poverty at 5.13%.
When looking at the overall correlation between poverty and crime, there are some facts that jump out. For example: when someone receives more education, they are less likely to commit a crime and are more likely to earn a living wage. On the other end of the spectrum, it also shows that urban white households in poverty are more at risk than any other group when it comes to experiencing crime.
This is probably a shift in what many tend to think about when they picture crime in the United States. Yet when it comes to violent crime, which is most likely to occur from a poverty standpoint, there were fewer victims of violent crime in the US than people who died from accidental poisoning. More people died from accidental falls than from violent crime.
And, if you take violent crime from a purely white perspective, more white people are killed by accidental drownings then they are from black on white violent crime.
What does this mean? That there is a direct correlation between socioeconomic status in the United States and experiencing a risk of violent crime."
Quote:That literally means that blacks are more prone to crime.
That's because of a host of circumstances prevalent for blacks including poverty, single parents, a culture of violence for young black men, unemployment, and lack of education. These factors figure way more into risk for crime than just one's race.

Those factors just so happen to correlate more with being black. You act as if someone argued that simply being black caused criminality. Like it was genetic or something. You can thank the "war against poverty" and its welfare system for black poverty, single parents, and the corresponding violence, criminality, and lack of employment/education. IOW, Democrat policies.

Syne has no concept of white privelege. How when your black and interview for a job you have to worry about racist cues. How when you're black and driving at night you have to worry about being pulled over for not making a signal. How as a black parent you have to warn your son not to wear hoodies. How black people have been sequestered for generations in poorer districts where crime and poverty run rampant. How everything you see on TV and in magazines and in movies elevates the white ideal. How it feels to be a stereotyped minority everywhere you go.

Yep, the same. Or do you think that blacks in the US are somehow magically not incentivized to stay on welfare while the rest of the white and Hispanic poor are, producing generational poverty and a permanent underclass?

What are "racist cues", and how would recognizing them help anyone get a job? Oh wait, that's the excuse not to get a job, right? O_o
Really? White folks don't have to signal?
"Sequestered"? So they've been corralled, like the Japanese in internment camps?
The generational poverty that keeps them in terrible neighborhoods is a direct result of incentivized welfare. Hell, Amazon just introduced half-price Amazon Prime to help people on government assistance spend more money.
But you're the closest racist who likes to keep them in their place, right? De-police their neighborhoods and going easy on criminals so their neighborhoods only become more dangerous and foster more crime.
That video is crap. He words his questions to solicit nos from the black people, and uses this as a demonstration that they don't believe it exists. Are you consumed all day with white privelege? Ofcourse not. Will it keep you from attaining your goals in life? No.. Ofcourse white privelege isn't an excuse for failure of life. But it is something blacks have to work against because it is ingrained in our culture. It festers in the daily snap judgements that we make based on race and class. It persists in the bank loan redlining that occurred in the 50's and 60's and has held generations of black families in poverty and unemployment since. It is real, and it is toxic, and ongoing, and is a huge negative factor in black people's lives. Why is it so hard for you to recognize this? Do you actually believe giving blacks a headstart isn't something that they deserve?
Sure, buddy. It's all leading questions. Funny how you neglected all the unsolicited assertions from blacks. "Color ain't stopped nothing. It's a myth." "If you let something stop you, that's you." As if what they say means nothing...because some white guy. O_o And funny how you post a video whitesplanning modern white privilege and a video of 50's and 60's redlining.
Generations have been held back since the New Deal in the 30's began incentivizing not working, which directly led to people being less credit worthy.
But you just keep believing that giving black children "no hope" is somehow going to help then escape the permanent underclass your policies have created for them.
Quote:And funny how you post a video whitesplanning modern white privilege
You have no clue what whitesplaining is. It isn't white people talking about racism. It's white people overexplaining racism to black people in a patronizing manner. So unless you're black, that video wasn't whitesplaining.
Using it as a rebuttal to things actual black people say on the subject IS whitesplaining. You basically made the argument that those black people are wrong because of this white girl explaining white privilege.
