Still hostile and aggressive. I never once suggested "all black men are criminals." You did that!
What I said is that I (and probably most people, of every race) would feel more unsafe when approached by an unfamiliar black man, than white man, because crime statistics have taught us to beware. With white on white murder, usually they know each other. With black on white crimes of any kind, usually not. (No doubt the reverse is true as well.) Poor white neighborhoods have a much lower murder rate than equally poor black neighborhoods. Which would be statistically safer for me?
Twisting or parsing the data to fit your agenda does not change the facts, only perceptions of it.
No all you've done is try and justify your racist beliefs. Have at it. It's a free country.

Meanwhile, the focus of your rant has been about the innocence of black men. How many of them are going to college?

You see how I might find you difficult do deal with?
This is a travesty not only did you miss history class but you also missed reading comprehension. If you spent less time profiling black men and more time in school, perhaps you wouldn't be struggling so much.

I hate when some people attempt to use statistics on this site. And they try to use it to make it sound like you should be rightfully wary of black people in general.

The statistics actually translate to:

If you are white, a white person is overwhelmingly most likely to kill you.
If you are white, a white person is overwhelmingly most likely to rape you
If you are white, a white person is overwhelmingly most likely to rob you/assault you/burglarize your home.

If you are black, a black person is overwhelmingly most likely to kill you.
If you are black, a black person is overwhelmingly most likely to rape you
If you are black, a black person is overwhelmingly most likely to rob you/assault you/burglarize your home.

Case in point, if you are white you should be more wary of the white folk around you. If you are black, well you already know.

If we got rid of all the white racist in the U.S., there would be no more racism in this country.

Should I get scared anytime a white man with a trench coat enters a building??? I mean white people do commit most of the mass murders in this country?
There would still be more then half the racism left! You forgot about black racism against whites!

"Forty-five percent of black crime is against whites, 43 against other blacks, and 10 percent against Hispanic"

"Blacks are 39 times more likely to commit a violent crime against whites then vice versa"

Posting quotes around something doesn't make it fact. Where is your source?

Maybe you should research the term institutional racism.

The exercise required a bit of extrapolation since most countries don't measure rates the same. That said, the numbers don't become equivalent to that of Switzerland by a long shot.

The numbers drop when altogether factoring out the AA demographic from crime stats (victims & offenders) and adjusting U.S. population statistics.

For 2012 when altogether factoring out the AA demographic, the US Rate drops approximately from 103rd in the world (murder per capita) to approximately 125th (4.8 to 3.06 per 100,000)

For 2011 when altogether factoring out the AA demographic, the murder rate drops by about 44.4%.
