Why are the majority pedophiles white? Um.... because there are more white people?

It'd be a problem if any of the other race groups were the majority of pedophiles in America when they represent 12-13% of the population or less!

Is your research paper taking into account that whites still comprise the majority of Americas population? Have you compiled statistics on the racial breakdown of admitted molesters as a percentage of their total respective populations? If you're not thorough with your research, that would make for one very lame report.

I guess you don't agree with that statement. Is my guess right? It is hard to tell when all you do is laugh.

Yes, these people are generally not that intelligent.

Oh, yeah--that would be a bad idea. In fact, why don't you not ever let her go outside. Ever. You never know what horrible things might happen to her if she does! Lock her up! Outside's too scary! Horrible, frightening things happen to people outside.

Do some Googling. The data doesn't seem to support this. Or at least it's contested.

But again, blacks are disproportionaly represented. Apparently so are whites, LOL! One study shows 80% are white, another that 22% are black. Another common quote is that 15% are black.

For example:

"National expert Eric W. Hickey, speaking with The Daily Advertiser from his Fresno, Calif., home, said that police sometimes make assumptions based on race.


“It’s a myth that serial killers are all white. There are actually several black serial killers, but historically, we have not paid much attention,” Hickey said. “If a poor, black male was preying on black prostitutes, it wouldn’t make the news.”


Hickey said roughly 80 percent of serial killers are white, but a recent study he conducted of 400 serial killers showed 22 percent to be of African-American descent."


Here's what the FBI says:


Federal Bureau of Investigation - Serial Murder - Multi-Disciplinary Perspectives for Investigators


"

Myth: Serial killers are all white males.

Contrary to popular belief, serial killers span all racial groups. There are white, African-American, Hispanic, and Asian serial killers. The racial diversification of serial killers generally mirrors that of the overall U.S. population.



• Charles Ng, a native of Hong Kong, China, killed numerous victims in Northern California, in concert with Robert Lake.



• Derrick Todd Lee, an African-American, killed at least six women in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.



• Coral Eugene Watts, an African-American, killed five victims in Michigan, fled the state to avoid detection, and murdered another 12 victims in Texas, before being apprehended.



• Rafael Resendez-Ramirez, a native of Mexico, murdered nine people in Kentucky, Texas, and Illinois, before turning himself in.



• Rory Conde, a Colombian native, was responsible for six prostitute homicides in the Miami, Florida area."

Other sources show the usual over representation of blacks a perps a shown below.

I.e if he general populace is 12% black, and 19% of the perps are black, you have over representation. Further, if the general populace is 74% white and the perps are 48.5% white, then the opening proposition of this thread is false.

Look if you want to tag something on whites, you probably need to look at economic crime, LOL! On the other hand if you want to look at the effect of financial rigging and game playing, you probably need to look at jewish folks.

Child Maltreatment 2007: Chapter 5: Perpetrators (http://www.acf.hhs.gov/programs/cb/pubs/cm07/chapter5.htm#race - broken link)

"Race and Ethnicity of Perpetrators

The racial distribution of perpetrators was similar to the race of their victims. During FFY 2007, nearly one-half (48.5%) of perpetrators were White and one-fifth (19.0%) were African-American. Approximately 20 percent (19.8%) of perpetrators were Hispanic.3 (http://www.acf.hhs.gov/programs/cb/pubs/cm07/chapter5.htm#n3 - broken link) These proportions also have remained consistent for the past few years."

If you mean, why are the majority of the total number of pedophiles and serial killers in this country white? Well, because there are almost six times more whites in this country than blacks. Blacks would have to be six times more probable of being a pedophile/serial killer to usurp the total number of whites who commit these acts.

Usually statisticians don't weigh their opinion on groups looking at the total number, but more the incidence rate per group. And the incidence rate for blacks in pedophilia and serial murder are actually higher than whites.

I know this is going to sound very harsh, but I have done plenty of research into crime rates in every type of crime imagineable, and I have compared white to black crime rates in each category. Blacks have higher incident rates for every crime group, and its especially bad for violent crime.

Race and Crime in the USA

http://www.childmolestationpreventio...pdfs/study.pdf

From the above study.

Quote:
While the caucasian group seems to produce slightly more child molesters and the Hispanic/Latin-American and African-American groups seem to produce fewer, we found another possible interpretation.

When we looked at group two, men who were lying or denying (from our complete sample), we found proportionately FEWER Caucasians: 67 percent vs. the 71 percent of Caucasians in our overall sample. For Hispanics/Latin-Americans we found proprtionately MORE people said to be either lying or denying: 14 percent vs 12 percent in our overall sample.

In addition, African-Americans were slightly under-represented in our complete sample. They were only 10 percent of the sample, while they are 12 percent of all U.S. men. African-Americans were over-represented in the lying or denying group. They made up 12 percent of that group. That they were both under-represented in the large complete sample and over-represented in the lying or denying group may suggest that this low number of 6 percent of admitted child molests as African-Americans may not be statiscally significant.

These results (caucasians admitting to being child molesters in proportionally greater numbers and both Hispanics/Latin-Americans and African-Americans admitting to being child molesters in proportionally lower numbers) may also suggest a greater mistrust on the part of the people in ethnic minority groups of the people assessing them.

It doesn't. That is an urban legend. Take it from someone who has a college degree in criminal justice and whose undergrad thesis was written on Megan's Law. Only in the fevered imaginations of Bill O'Reilly and Oprah Winfrey is the system "easy on pedophiles" (or other "sex offenders").

There are teenagers across the country whose lives have been ruined by prosecutions for consensual sex with other teenagers.

There is a man in California doing 15-to-life for sucking on boy's toes.

A teacher in Connecticut was in danger of a 40 year sentence because pornographic pop-ups occurred during an internet presentation to her grade school class.

Anyone who says the U.S. is insufficiently harsh on sexual offenses has absolutely no idea what they are talking about. None at all.
