What do the people to be afraid of in the ghettos of Tokyo look like? How about Manilla, Shanghai, or Ho Chi Minh City? Islamabad? Lahore? Mumbai? Moscow, Warsaw, Tallin, or Zagreb? Cast your bread upon the waters...
If you read my entire post, you would have noticed I was researching areas to retire within the US
How is the movie BS and not historically accurate pray tell? Because I've done the research and don't see any major issues with it - all historical depictions take some creative license, but the facts seem to be pretty well represented in my view.
I'm not going to bother looking up income and race cross tabulations, but I'd be the house that in every income strata, black crime is higher than white or oriental crime percentage-wise.
No, I am deadly serious. Possession of the facts can often have that effect.
What a hoot! Such claims have no scientific basis. They are at best outdated blarney.
Is that what they told you in your gender studies class?
What amazing innovations in 2017 have come from the minds of women. While I'm sure there has to be a few, I can say with little to no hesitation that pretty much every breakthrough innovation this last year was the idea of a man or men.
Let's test this. here is a list of inventions from last year. Go ahead and research all 100 items on the list and tell us how many were created by women. I'm sure there will be some because as a society we love love love the idea of women and minorities that aren't Asian creating stuff, but the reality is they couldn't make a list of 100 noteworthy female tech inventions from a single calendar year if they tried.

When a crime is committed in the US, there's much ado or speculation about the race of the individual. There's often coded language about race, religion, mental health, the weapon used, the tangled relationships or the wealth involved.
They're thugs.
They're muslim.
He's a lone wolf (e.g. crazy).
He's an irresponsible gun owner.
He got rid of her for his mistress.
He collected the life insurance.
However, the media and the population rarely (if ever?) dissect why violent crime is so decidedly, overwhelmingly male. There's often discussion over what to do about those thugs, those immigrants, those religious extremists or those guns. What gets lost, is that men, regardless of race, color, religion, creed, weapon of choice or financial standing are the principal proponents of violence.
Men are half of the population yet are charged with 73% of offenses against family and children, 77% of aggravated assault, 89% of murder and 99% of forcible rape according to 2012 FBI statistics.
Are men raised differently than women, expected (even encouraged) to be more physical?
Are hormones a driving factor?
What is it about men that prevents them from controlling violent impulses?
Is men perpetuating violence ignored because it's simply accepted as nothing exceptional?
A 20F degree day during a Wisconsin winter is nothing of note. A 68 degree day is newsworthy. Is a violent man (murderer, wife beater, rapist, child abuser) just another 20 degree day?
Yea its a real conundrum as long as we carry on the PC pretense that men and women are the same. Despite about a million years of sexual and physiological dimorphism in homo sapiens.
Now if we are honest, and admit while men and women should have equal treatment and equal opportunities as populations they are not the "same", and never could be, we can look at the biological as well as the social environmental causes and predispositions. Alas, this is the age of policed thought and policed words.

Who still refers to Asians as"orientals"? You must be from some rural area.

But you still will not admit it's men that are the problem.
Black men are still....MEN.
Muslim men are still....MEN.
We could eliminate black men and we word still have high crime...from white MEN.
I disagree. Mens violence is more visible in THIS society. Shootings assaults and the like. You go to other places you'll see different. Women can be extremely violent and sadistic, vicious. It's just more subtle.
Male violence is more visible, in most cases. Men are more out there with their violence. Men have higher suicide rates than women. With women, violence has the potential to be just as "in your face". Alot of it is less "in your face". Women who commit murder will use guns as the men do. Women are far more likely than men to use stabbing and beating.
Over all, this is the most important thing is punishment. Men commit more violence, but on the occasion it's committed, the sentences are often harsher than for women.
