That's the total white population, but male only would be half of that, so 38.5%. But that's male only, including the ages of 0-18, if we remove non-adults, perhaps we'd get back to her figure of 31%.
But you're missing the point. She put that number out there to deliberately misrepresent the facts by not doing the same for blacks. And there's no reason separate out the men when we're talking about race, unless you want to make a particular race look bad.

...and apply that to blacks...like for like....and you're right back where you started from
blacks commit 3 times more
edit....no, a lot worse
If blacks are ~10%...and 1/2 female....that makes it 5%....remove children....probably down to 2-3%
something like that anyway

Well she should do the same thing for Black men. We can compare the rate of rape among White men (18+) and Black men (18+), you're free to find the figures, I personally am not enough interested to find them.
But she's right in the sense it makes no sense to include White women or Black women in these figures. They're not the one's raping, men are. In turn, it doesn't make sense to include male toddlers, they're not raping, "men" (whether that begins at 16 or 18 is a debate point) are.
Nevertheless, these are racist thoughts. They're innocuous but racist at the same time. You're prejudging people based on their race and their race alone.
Prejudging, profiling, racist.....whatever. It works for smart people.
Prejudice is not based only on skin color, it's a preconceived notion. It could be hair color
The subject or question is about racism, not general prejudice. If you don't like people with green hair, you may be prejudiced against people with green hair but that doesn't make you a racist (unless there is a race of people with green hair I'm not aware of).
This is obviously what the OP is cryptically implying. That only conservatives are racist. She is also cryptically implying that only whites can be racist. But she'll deny this all the way to the Moon... Like most liberals would do. This is the motivation behind this thread. Very obvious and very typical.
Either you are not reading all the comments or you are being very selective about which ones you read and your understanding of them, altogether very limited either way!
You were attached by all the black people in the world?
I white guy named Nicholas floor burglarized my home. Should I use that actual experience to treat all white guys name Nicholas as criminals?
Stats, reviews, facts. When I buy a product online I often check the reviews. If the reviews are poor chances are I won't buy the product. Whites, blacks, Asians, Hispanics. Their rate of violence and crime varies greatly. When I go to Vegas I try to play with the odds in my favor. Those odds vary from game to game. I don't play games that heavily favor the casino.

No, I was not intentionally misleading anyone, do the math yourself. This is a stupid thing to argue about. Anyone who feels safer with 3 white men following them than 3 men of another race are prejudiced if not racist. Women should be concerned any time they are being followed by three men of any race. What woman in their right mind would say "oh it's cool that three guys are following me because they are white"? Good God
