This is an interesting article in the New York Times. However, did anyone else notice that they had to go to Oregon to find a WHITE family that was filled with criminals in three generations? Isn't it possible, perhaps a lock solid certainty, that there are BLACK families like this in the NYC area? But it just wouldn't be politically correct to have a chart of crime in a family with nothing but black faces, now would it? Besides, it's part of the general "look down our superior noses at everyone who's not from around here" atttitude of the Times.

I did think--as I read the article in this morning's paper--that if the family was of color the Times would not have published it. It's ALWAYS open season on white people at the Times.

The same author wrote a book about a similar non-white family. See my #17 for el-linko.
