Statistics
The numbers don’t lie. According to the US census, 76% of our population is white,13% is African American. According to the FBI database, African Americans under 18 commit murder 2x whites Robbery 2x whites, stolen property 2x whites,50% of violent crime,50% of theft& auto theft. Thirteen percent of the population for all African Americans, & yet those under 18 have these numbers in crime?????? Are we surprised that that population group is profiled more than other groups. Are we surprised that police officers who want to get home to their families don’t take any chances with this population group? Let’s look at the reasons for these statistics. Lack of paternal involvement? Education? Let’s look @ the statistics & fix the real problem.
