Words to ponder?


Pat writes,

Though blacks are outnumbered 5-to-1 in the population by whites, they commit eight times as many crimes against whites as the reverse.

By those 2007 numbers, a black male was 40 times as likely to assault a white person as the reverse.

If interracial crime is the ugliest manifestation of racism, what does this tell us about where racism really resides — in America?

On the other hand, surely interracial crime is at least partly just crime.

Which, of course, may have been his point.

Or maybe not.

What hatred is more voluble, more open, more  self-assured,  more loud and insistent,  or more violent than the hatred of blacks in America for whites?
