I'm not saying white people don't commit crimes (you're far more likely to have a meth lab run by a white person in these parts) but crimes against property and non-domestic violent crime is strongly skewed towards people of color.

By the way, anyone who breaks into my house while I'm home is going to get their head blown off, regardless of their skin color. I'm not going to stop shooting until I run out of ammo, as my feeling is that if they are breaking into an occupied home, it's with the intention of doing the occupant bodily harm. I'm not going to shoot once and hope I disable them, I'm going to make sure there is no way in hell that they can get up and come after me. That is a 100% justifiable use of deadly force.

If that is the case in your area, I can understand and unfortunately agree with you. What I was refering to is because of the news and some people's prejuiced and fears they are more afraid of a young black or latino walking down the street than a white young man and therefore are threatened really easy. In fact easy enough to shoot them under the SYG Law. This is alot different than someone breaking into your house, (Castle Law) where as far as I'm concerned people should be allowed to torture them first and than shoot them
