Crimes against children rate, non-Hispanic White to Black: 3 to 1
Percentage rate of population, non-Hispanic White to Black: 5 to 1
These stats keep getting repeated but the reality is the most abused children are the ones born into poverty regardless of race. This stat is more representative of the fact that the Perpetrators of the crimes are not being prosecuted and the victims fear coming out which we will never know the actual number. If you surveyed how many White and Black woman were molested as children you would find the rates the same, not including those who don't come forward. The following is just one of many articles on the topic.
I get the feeling that this post is the one that steered the topic into a "blacks don't address their cultural issues" debate. Kinda like the thread on blacks not tipping. I don't think any of the black posters here (myself included) are denying the ills that plague our race. However, it is not our responsibility to appeal to the posters on the board to be poster children and admit to everything wrong (or perceivably wrong) with the black community, especially in a thread that had nothing to do with race to begin with. If anyone wants to discuss the particular issues that include blacks disproportionately, create your own thread where it can be discussed.
100% true. It really was an issue on it's own until someone interjected race. You can interject race, Nationailty or religion into most any topic on this board!
Are you denying that those sexual crimes against children and sexual deviant problems are disproportionately high in the White community?
You have yet to make your case with documented FACTS. You seem to be cherry picking the 1991 study which is okay...just post a link to the actual results where you are drawing your conclusions from so that we may understand your math.

Calipoppy's blatantly false assertion has already been debunked with BJS, DOJ, and Census data.
An unemployed mother of 15, probably never worked a day in her life, says 'somebody owes me.'
With the crime, drugs, poverty, etc and the culture of glorifying unemployment, gangs, drug dealers, not taking responsibility, etc I can't imagine things will ever change.
