10% of 1,000 is not the same as 10% of 1,000,000 and there is arguing going on about that 10%, not what that 10% represents.

Its easier to scapegoat other groups than to acknowledge their own flaws. No, they are pefect and you are the problem. So you will not see threads on C-D about the epidemic of Meth, lice and bedbug infestations, welfare, hoarding/property upkeep issues, the rampant sexual abuse of children/pedophiles, white collar crimes, identity theft, etc, etc, etc.



Classic example of what I am talking about....
The problem is, no one wants to hear the truth, every time the subject of problems in the ghetto black community is brought up, all of the black posters here jump in to defend this garbage culture. I think most posters here don't mind helping someone in need on a temporary basis until they get on their feet, but this women and many others are taking the system for a ride and this seems to be status quo in the underclass black community.

I have several black neighbors and they're good people, in the end, that is all that matters. What I don't what is a ghetto culture thug living next door. Believe me I have some pretty lousy White neighbors also.

The only thing black I have a problem with is this and those outside of it that behave the same way.

I think you and people like you need to get out more or research what is REALLY going on in the world and country instead of just continuing to think you know everything and allowing that to justify your strange logic.

I know that many people grew up in a time where they were told or witnessed black women with many children and unfortunately without the income to support them, but times have changed now and it was never ONLY black women who were living as such.

Some of you are just some nasty, hateful, bigoted and disgusting people. Your souls are very dark and you will pay if you go around thinking with stereotypical thoughts. Is the woman in the video an idiot and simply out of touch with her personal responsibilities? Yes.

Another thing, what do people say about The Duggars? You know, the family that has like 18 or so kids? What would people say if suddenly their investments went sour? They lost their home? Their insurance couldn't cover them and they sought help from the government? Would some of you look at them with the same bigotry, disgust and hate?
The Duggers are responsible people who have the resources to have many children, so it works for them and I would not refuse them welfare if they fall on hard times because they started out responsible people. This chick however, started out with nothing, had 15 kids just to work the system, no comparison.

That stat doesn't break Hispanics out of the White group so we have 72.4% of the population committing almost 73% of those crimes. Like I said, NO anomaly there.

But look at this... Blacks are only 12.6% of the population BUT COMMIT OVER 25% OF THOSE CRIMES - MORE THAN TWICE WHAT WOULD BE EXPECTED BASED ON THEIR POPULATION PERCENTAGE!!!

Blacks are TWICE as likely to commit crimes against children as are Whites! Why aren't you absolutelyhorrified by that fact, cali?

You're calling me uninformed? YOU'RE the one who can't do math and doesn't understand statistics.

Then again, your outright refusal to educate yourself or even try to understand what's going on explains why the Black community CANNOT do anything to help themselves. They, like you, refuse to even try.

No one is missing the point that you cannot do math and don't understand statistics. It's blatantly obvious throughout this thread.

Bury your head in the sand a little deeper, cali, while more Blacks abuse children at TWICE the rate as Whites, as the facts have clearly shown.

I am not sure it's "MANY", more like some...

By the same token, SOME black Americans would prefer not having a WHITE person living next to them, even if they were well educated, clean, and rich.

Now, in my neighborhood, it is very racially mixed, and we all not only get along very well, we look after each others property when people aren't home, all the kids playing in the court, and each other. My next door neighbor, (not the same race as I, but I point this out for the haters out there), once asked me to arm myself and come over, because at 2 in the morning, she got home and her door was open, and she wanted my assistance. I didn't even think twice, I came right over, and helped her deal with the situation, AND intruder.

We don't dwell on race or religion, we dwell on how we can be neighborly.

As soon as anything anti-White is stated (with proof) I am attacked by all of the C-D bigots (and the one self hating Black). Nothing new. Point proven.
Boy, you sure are full of yourself!
