    Who is demonizing blacks? I posted data showing the racial representation of hate-crime offenders.

    It refutes Lemon’s data-less response.

    You don't go along with the progressive mob. Thus you are racist.

    Dude, you and Senator are the main two people here that go on and on about 'black crime stats' and for you to feign innocence here isn't fooling anyone.

    The hypocrisy here...

    Don Lemon uses white crime stats: DEMONIZING!
    You using black crime stats [Chicago Gonna Chicago]: I'm just speaking truths!

    The truth is crime stats are always historically used to denigrate a group of people. I've never in the history of humankind seen this tactic ever used for good.

    If crime stats are used to denigrate groups... then you're saying that Don Lemon IS demonizing a group of people...

    Yes, not sure if I said it in this thread or another but I don't agree with Lemon doing this...to be fair he did it to black people too, so he's at least consistent in that.

    I don't think it is relevant or useful to say "This group of people commit _____"

    Because criminality in general is VERY low. Basically 1% of any group are criminals. By doing this all you are doing is giving people excuses to stereotype and be racist to any group.

    There are disporportionate numbers regarding violent crime. How do you account for that? Should we not address those communities which may have needs that are unmet, leading to more violence?

    I don't think I would use the word "usually"

    You can talk about a community without going "BLACKS COMMIT MORE CRIMES!" again, no one here likes it when people shout out white crime stats so why do you think others like it when you do it to them? I really don't see how it helps, historically, it's always used as an excuse to take away rights from people or to treat them as less than.

    Again, I don't see how this kind of language helps anyone.

    Conservatives always talk about being 'color blind' but when it comes to talking about terrorism or crime they are anything but...

    The crime stays I posted contain more than just the black crime rate.

    Stop it. Please stop it. You obviously lack the ability to comprehend and interpret data, as well as context.

    Data cannot lie.

    Offer it a cigarette and get the data to cooperate.

    If these mass shootings were done by illegal immigrants, blacks, or Muslims I’m sure they’d be a problem.

    Lol one immigrant killed a girl and Trump used it as a reason for a wall.

    The context is that you've created several "Black Crime" threads throughout your history here and the only reason you do so is to denigrate black people. That's the only reason people talk about crime stats in regards to any one group, it is to insult and denigrate a group of people.

    You don't like when Lemon did it so why should you expect anyone to like when you do it? Treat others how you'd like to be treated. It's not that difficult to ask.

    Do you deny that you have created several black crime threads on this forum?

    Lemon offered no data. None. I brought data to this discussion.

    How dare you slander data with accusations of racism. Your bid to remove data and all other relevant context from these discussions will not stand.

    Wrong. Lemon offered data, you just ignored it and decided to cry on about how white people were being demonized...all while I guess forgetting that you do the very same thing as Lemon in previous threads.

    Where? Here is the video.



    You also see the CNN banner headline? Go back and look at the hate crime stats. Quit being data illiterate.

    You see the CF member who liked your post? That’s the sign that you should quit — that your argument is bunk.
