>> 70% of all people arrested in the US for larceny are white.

As used by the FBI, the “white” cohort includes Hispanic (Latino, whatever you want to call it).

Wonder what the breakdown would look like if Hispanic was broken out into a separate category.

Furthermore, the percentage of blacks arrested for larceny is MUCH MORE THAN DOUBLE — ALMOST TRIPLE their percentage of the population as a whole.

Spin it however you like — non-Hispanic whites commit significantly less crime than either blacks or Hispanics.

That’s why our prisons are full of blacks and Hispanics.

That’s why our prisons are full of blacks and Hispanics.

But what percentage are in for "larceny?"

Thanks for saying how it REALLY is.

Wonder what the breakdown would look like if Hispanic was broken out into a separate category.

Some states, like California, break out Hispanics as a separate category on their Uniform Crime Reports. See page 34 at the link. In CA, non-Hispanic whites account for 29.4% of violent crime and 31.7% of property crime. But if Hispanic is added in, then the "white" totals would be about 70%
