What do you think?

For what it's worth, the Unz Review does sometimes have articles that go against the conventional right-wing narrative--such as this article:

Since when are facts (for example, that blacks commit nearly 75% of all violent crime in America) "right wing"?

2013? Seven years are a long time in America....

Shhhh. Black crime statistics are to be suppressed. If it can't be suppressed it is to be excused with various hand wavings and references to the evil of whites.

This data is not new. I used to use it for political discussion way back years ago. Part of it is because they tend to be more low income, and low income people in general are more prone to criminality. Are they profiled more by police? Probably... but a crime is a crime.. cops are equal opportunity to arresting people and giving an ass kicking to people who resist arrest.

These numbers have been available to be seen for at least 15 years.... that blacks per capita commit 5-6 times more crimes I mean. I don't believe in identity politics so I don't like bringing this stuff up like I used too.

In some government stats "hispanics" are lumped in with whites.

Yes.

No. It's stupid.

I’m convinced the crime statistics would be drastically different if white people were profiled, and caught more often. There are probably thousands of them getting away with all kinds of stuff, including getting caught, and having a hookup to sweep it under the rug, and having authority figures feel bad for them, because they remind them of their family members, and think they are going through a “rough patch”.

Libertarian law professor Ilya Somin told me on Twitter that the Unz Review is a racist rubbish source.
