No prob. I saw the number the other day as 11,106 and figured you had a typo, but checked anyway. That’s just a crazy number at 20+ per day. Sheesh.

Per the US 2010 Census, “White or European Americans” are 72.4% of the population, “Black or African Americans” are 12.6% and “Hispanics or Latinos” are 16.4%.

“Due to rounding the numbers exceed 100%.”

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_the_United_States

The wiki article goes on to further break down the different groups, for example those with bog trotter roots like meself make up 10.8% of the US population.

Aside from their cooking I don’t think the Irish are particularly criminally inclined.

I recently read statistics that said whites, not counting “white Hispanics” are 63 percent of the population. If blacks are 12.5 to 15 percent, and Hispanics have overtaken them, count in orientals, Indians and so on, that 63 percent seems about right. Not that I’m arguing with the numbers you used. Either way, the black crime rate, being challenged by the Hispanic crime rate, is way out of proportion to their population. It’s like Ann Coulter said, if America was just whites, our crime statistics would be like Holland’s or some Anglo European country, I forget which one.

I know that PC prevents blacks and liberals from being honest, but all the counter culture, racial militance, purposeful dumbing down and welfarism is destroying black culture and families. They hurt themselves the most.

If I see a wild animal fouling its own nest and killing its own young, what degree of concern should I show? Does it really need to be explained again to the black community that they shouldn’t murder each other? How is this my fault? Yes, certainly I wish it weren’t happening but jailing the murderers, I’m told, is also an act of racism. What’s the solution here that doesn’t involve acceptance of complete responsibility and a fundamental change of heart by blacks for blacks? This is not a white problem so the solution does not reside with white people. It would be insulting to suggest that only white people have the wherewithal to solve this for black people.

Not his mind, it seems to be disposable.

is it necessary to read this drivel or is it safe to guess this Son of Obama is blaming everything on Whitey, racism, and slavery.

The total exceeds 100% partly because some people claim to be White and Hispanic.
