When people see a large % of a particular race committing majority of the crime the natural tenancy is to be suspicious.
If 1 in 6 black male is arrested before turning 18, that dramatically makes it harder to become employed by any establishment.
Change the stat then you will see people will change their manner.
Your argument is silly because obviously if the police are targeting a group more, there will be more arrests. But it doesn't mean blacks are committing more crime, it just means we are charged more often.
Take a look at the growing heroin epidemic in the white upper income areas throughout the country. The police aren't arresting strung out white kids. Instead of being in a jail, they are brought to drug treatment centers.
The same L.I. cops however work in NYC and have no problem arresting young black men for marijuana possession. Do you see how it works? On the surface it looks like blacks are committing more "crimes," but in actuality, the white cops are just turning a blind eye to the white junkies and not locking them up.
Those stats are posted on their crime websites and of course people like you come along and state with glee, "1 in 6 black males are arrested before turning 18." Funny you can't cite the stats for the white junkies though.
Don't hold back now, tell us what you really think.
Did it look like I was holding back? Hoodrat pre-emption!

He was on the property of Harvard University. It was the Cambridge PD.
Best part was when it turned out that he & the sergeant are distant cousins!

I can't imagine that ever happening to Prof. Noam Chompsky!
Your imagination is as weak as your spelling.
Chomsky would probably baffle everyone with a discourse on the meaning of the word 'identification'.
Let's be honest about something, black women are at the bottom of this society so of course she would get arrested,but do you really think the same would happen to a white woman? I don't think so. Tell us about a time when you called the police on a white woman and the police "handled" her for you.
A white woman never tried to bar the entry of my doorway, and never ranted and raved and screamed at me. If a white woman ever does, be assured I will not hesitate to call the police.
Though I was around during occupy wall street when certain whites got busted for doing certain criminal things. I saw with my own two eyes whites get roughed up as well.
So dude, are you even a Black guy? You seem to be determined to stir up racial hatred, by desperately trying to install fear in Blacks of cops. I don't fear cops. I actually have friends who were cops, and to take it further many of the men in my family were military. I have the utmost respect and admiration for soldiers and officers (among others) who serve the public and this country.

There's no need to change the stat. You can do background checks to verify whether or not someone is a criminal.
Otherwise, if it's statistical purposes, men should never be allowed to teach or even work or go near a K-12, since the majority of child molesters are male.
But fortunately the educational system doesn't think like that because though the majority of child molesters are male, most men are not child molesters and the assess candidates on the basis of what the individual candidate has done.
But back to angry and hateful, if you can't even see how you sound you have some serious issues.
