    Your lack of an actual rebuttal and use of logic makes things pretty clear who the person is who is making ignorant statements.

    Good job.

    There is no need. I'll give one example. Adam Lanza. By his logic we should start profiling nerdy white boys with social issues because you never know when they might snap and murder a classroom full of children.

    Or the pothead headbanger because you never know when he'll decide to rape and kill a 6 year old.

    Sure. If you have a realistic, efficient and cheap way to detect the inner thoughts of potheads and prevent them from conducting future crimes on the whim, do share with the world and let's profile the crap out of these potheads.

    Until then, please kindly allow our police force to be alert against possible riots by some members of the black community after those people have issued threats of violence before and after the conclusion of a highly publicized and sensationalized court case.

    The group that for 300 years has been enslaved and disenfranchised in regard to education and opportunity. It takes more than 40 years for a group to start "trusting" the very thing that used to disenfranchise them. I'm sure it has nothing to do with the groups "genetics" but rather prior history. Prior history has caused this group to be paranoid about any incident that might have the slightest hint of racial undertones. Its like a husband beating his wife for 40 years. All the husband has to do is raise his voice and the wife will cower in fear.

    I pretty much agree with what you are saying. But then again I agree for the most part with bigtexx's "summary" but he failed to mention any examples why a black person would have distrust of law. Just one example blacks being treated harsher for the same crime than a white person. If I were black i know that would piss me off.

    Your original figure was slightly off.

    It's evident that you're not only ignorant about the history of the LAPD but also US history in general. Read some books.

    Please provide statistics that prove people that fit the profile of Adam Lanza commit mass killings on more than a rare occurrence.

    But before you do that why don't you research the amount of crime and violence that is done by people fitting the description of Trayvon Martin.

    Looking forward to your research.

    Follow this link: http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2012/12/mass-shootings-mother-jones-full-data

    It has a list of every major mass shooting in America from 1981 to 2012. The vast majority were done by white men with social issues. Just this week there was a narrowly averted school shooting in Atlanta. The suspect: a white man with social issues.

    In another thread, someone brought up the fact that white men are overrepresented in certain crime categories such as child and spousal abuse. Clearly, if we should profile blacks as muggers or killers, we should also profile white men as child abusers and mass murderers, even though, as with black people, the actual criminals are a small percentage of a large group.

    It's interesting that when a minority commits a crime, it somehow becomes the burden of the entire community. They have to condemn those actions, ponder what's "wrong" with their group, and accept others imputing negative characteristics. Yet, when a white person commits a crime, it becomes an anomaly, an individual act of a troubled person.

    I'm too lazy at the moment but can anyone find the demographics for child molesters?

    What sort of demographics? I did a quick search and found a 2011 health & human services report detailing child abuse. I don't think it specifically addresses molestation. Here's the link: https://www.acf.hhs.gov/sites/default/files/cb/cm11.pdf#page=57.

    Nothing particularly surprising in it.

    Apparently your race baiting is backfiring on you. You've shown a very dishonorable side on these bulletin boards. It reflects poorly on beliefs that you have.

    I don't have any but I think sexual perverts are predominately white males. I don't think you'd have too many whites that would dispute that. Personally I think they should be getting live without parole. They damage they do vs the odds of their correction are just too much to let go.

    I also think whites males are more serial killers and mass murders. No stats but just seems to be the case.

    And I think the reason for the disproportionate stats on black murders is they rarely want to turn someone in when a crime has been committed. Then someone else takes revenge for that crime. And then another revenge, etc. It's an endless circle.
