Also I was playing around... But at the same time what is wrong with pointing out facts. Looks like it's the same way in the uk http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/uk/article810556.ece 70% of muggers are black in robbery hot spots One of my best friends who I play basketball with is black and we joke around and have this discussion all the time.
For all the people that just love to pull the race card. I just pointed out facts. What is so wrong with that? I was actually joking when I posted my original post. But anyways here you go Crime Rates * Blacks are seven times more likely than people of other races to commit murder, and eight times more likely to commit robbery. * When blacks commit crimes of violence, they are nearly three times more likely than non-blacks to use a gun, and more than twice as likely to use a knife. * Hispanics commit violent crimes at roughly three times the white rate, and Asians commit violent crimes at about one quarter the white rate. * The single best indicator of violent crime levels in an area is the percentage of the population that is black and Hispanic. Interracial Crime * Of the nearly 770,000 violent interracial crimes committed every year involving blacks and whites, blacks commit 85 percent and whites commit 15 percent. * Blacks commit more violent crime against whites than against blacks. Forty-five percent of their victims are white, 43 percent are black, and 10 percent are Hispanic. When whites commit violent crime, only three percent of their victims are black. * Blacks are an estimated 39 times more likely to commit a violent crime against a white than vice versa, and 136 times more likely to commit robbery. * Blacks are 2.25 times more likely to commit officially-designated hate crimes against whites than vice versa. Gangs * Only 10 percent of youth gang members are white. * Hispanics are 19 times more likely than whites to be members of youth gangs. Blacks are 15 times more likely, and Asians are nine times more likely. Incarceration * Between 1980 and 2003 the US incarceration rate more than tripled, from 139 to 482 per 100,000, and the number of prisoners increased from 320,000 to 1.39 million. * Blacks are seven times more likely to be in prison than whites. Hispanics are three times more likely. Source(s): Arrest data: FBI, Crime in the United States, 2001 (USGPO, 2002), p. 252. FBI, Crime in the United States, 2002 (USGPO, 2003), p. 252.

I can already see how it goes You- foul Black friend- no, that's clean steal You- cmon you know I don't have to tell you about the proper way to steal. You- just kidding, let's have discussion.
Wow how did you know? You must play at the same gym as us. You must be the fat kid no one wants to pickup.
I would probably slap my wife for doing something so thoughtless. You have kids, they are wahooing ****ing beer! It's not like you risked your life to stop a suicide bomber in a daycare. She could be dead, her kids without a mother. Idiot. How is this reply not equally as racist?
Does anybody else find this comical? Nobody even brought up race until you did. What was the point? By watching the video we know a robbery is taking place and the perps are black. Seems like you have the issue and want to bring race into it more than anybody else and then get frustrated when you get called out on it.
That looks to be a direct quote from here: http://www.colorofcrime.com/colorofcrime2005.html "Color of Crime", a book by the New Century Foundation. Not disputing the statistics, but I wonder what's the point? I question the motives of such studies. More on New Century Foundation: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Century_Foundation [rquoter] According to the Anti-Defamation League it was founded by Jared Taylor and is "a self-styled think tank known primarily for American Renaissance, a white supremacist journal and companion Website." Regarding the ideology of Jared/American Renaissance, ADL writes that: "Jared Taylor calls his views “race realism” and himself a believer in “complete freedom of association.” He advocates voluntary segregation as a “natural” expression of racial solidarity and denies that his views constitute white supremacism or white separatism. Viewing world conflicts and societal problems as derivative of racial, religious, and ethnic diversity, Taylor upholds racial homogeneity as the key to fostering peaceful coexistence. He sees Japan, where he lived until he was 16 years old with his missionary parents, as an exemplar of a racially homogenous society. He views Asians generally as genetically superior in intelligence to whites who he, in turn, sees as genetically superior in intelligence to blacks."[2] Regarding Jews, the ADL writes that "Taylor eschews anti-Semitism. Seeing Jews as white, greatly influential and the “conscience of society,” Taylor rather seeks to partner with Jews who share his views on race and racial diversity" and "Jews have been speakers and/or participants at all eight American Renaissance conferences" although controversy followed accusations by David Duke, who was not a scheduled presenter, at the 2006 conference.[3] Taylor in response wrote that "There will be no more disgraceful behavior of this kind if people who attend AR conferences bear in mind that Jews have a valuable role in the work of American Renaissance, and are welcome participants and speakers. Anyone who thinks otherwise has the choice of staying home or keeping his views to himself."[5] [/rquoter]
so much fail in the video....the lady is out of her mind, if they dont care enough to put on masks or hide their theft, then they sure as hell won't care if they throw you off their car or drag you with it. Just get the plates, description, and call it in right away. Also, an employee did try to stop them. You can see an older white (?) guy with a name tag trying to talk him out of it or something, as they walk out the doors. Not much you can do in that situation, other than physically confronting them, not a good idea. The true hero may have been the guy that comes into the picture at the end with the cell. He probably had 911 on the line and gave them the plates, description, location, and that's what helped police track them down so quickly. The thieves were a joke, but which one is the one who can play small forward?
It would have been better if one of the guys jacked her in the face when she ran up to them. That would have hopefully taught her a lesson that may save her life in the future. I have a feeling now that she thinks she can run up to anybody without any repercussions.
What a tragedy for Tristan Thompson. Just got drafted by the Cavs and then the next few days all his brothers get arrested. Damn.
