Question, would you do the same thing if there were a group of latino males or white males?

Young black males commit 1/2 of the murders in this country, I wonder what percentage of young black males commit knockout game assaults? 90%? 100%?

90-100% thing, well, until there is solid evidence that 90-100% of young Black males are playing "the knockout game"(and no, those youtube/WSHH videos are not enough, I need true statistical evidence), then that "90 to 100 percent" statistic is fallacious, and very wrong.

I placed question marks after the figures, which to most readers would convey that those figures are an estimate/guess. I don't know if you studied at an inner city school and or HCBU that spends 1/2 of the class time coercing the "students" to settle down or not, but I was in no way, shape, or form implying that the 90% and 100% figures were factual.

With that being said, I'm guessing that my 90% estimate was a (very) conservative one and that my 100% estimate is much more likely.

I wasn't talking about HBCUs. I was talking about that 90-100% statistic. There is no proof that 90-100% of young Black men are going out and physically attacking people. None whatsoever. Until that statistic proof can be furnished, then the 90-100% statistic being thrown out there is fallacious and a lie.

Jesse Jackson and "good men" in the same sentence is an oxymoron.

Most likely close to 100%. There might be a white boy lackey in there somewhere but I've yet to see one.

Yeah there is. Show us ONE video of a white boy attacking another person. An elderly person or female of color, preferably if you can.

Actually, videos are not enough proof. 100% means ALL. Can you prove that ALL young Black males are participating in "the knockout game"? That was the question I posed.

And I have to consider this. Alot of these fools videotaping themselves doing this crap want attention that badly. As for videos of a White person doing something, here is something to look at.

There are Whites who do attack people. Difference is, thanks to WSHH, many Black youths who do this often video tape themselves, often for the attention. I've been attacked by White youths before, on more than one occasion.

Since whites young males mimic blacks I would not be surprised that they do not have their own version of the game, but the only difference is that either it is not covered in the media or that they were getting their azzes handed to them.

Black people don't have souls?

It's stuff like this that makes me cry.
