Thank you for the link, and I am largely onboard.

However, I think he makes a mistake by stating it is 3% of the population causing 45% of the crime. (He says that it is black males in a given age group responsible)

That much is true, but I believe it not only understates the nearly ludicrous seriousness of the problem, but unfairly tars every black male in that age range.

There are ten million black men in that age range (if his calculation is correct) but out of that ten million, it is a minority of that which is responsible for 45% of crime (I prefer to focus on violent crime which includes homicides, aggravated assault, armed robbery, and rape) which is why I bring in the statistic of 1/3 of black men with felony convictions as a rule of thumb. It is a given that not all black men who have committed violent crime have a felony conviction, but it is also a given that many of the black men who DO commit violent crime do so repeatedly and will show up on more than one recorded case.

Note: The 1/3 of black men with a felony conviction is also a Leftist construct from a study they did for an ideological purpose which I will accept as a starting point, and also because it is good to use their own “data” against them.

That is approximately 3,300,000 black males committing 45% of violent crime, which is 1% of the total population which makes the problem even MORE insanely stupid.

So that is where we differ, I think he is too broad.

There are millions of responsible black men in that age range that are trying to get by, trying to make a living, and trying to raise a family. We cannot lump them in. Granted, many of them may be adherents of toxic “Black Culture”, but many of them also do not agree with treating women as whores, or education as “acting white”. They are Americans and should be treated as such.

If we lived in a town of 10,000 people, and statistics showed that only 100 people were causing nearly half the murders, rapes, and assaults, normal, sane people would reasonably say that those 100 people should be sought out and punished or removed from the town.

But these are not sane times, that is for certain.
