No. Haven't you heard that song by Stevie wonder it goes something like this. "You should know, that people are the same where ever you go. There is good and bad, in every one......"
Is true. If you watch the show cops, you will see that white people get arrested as often as black people or hispanics. Its all a matter of where you live. The poorest and more drug prone areas of any town will be more riskier than the high class areas. That is just the way it is.
Did you know that most serial killers are white? By most I mean like 90%.
Also, your logic is faulty. Your logic says that by staying away from the bad people and I mean this in general not any race in particular will keep you safe. That is very wrong because what is stopping the bad people from coming near you. They could get you at the next stop sign, at work, at the beach. Anywhere. I think that if you target only one group of people then you blind yourself to other dangers around you. You see, you think oh great I manage to stay away from this one black guy but forgot that the guy walking behind you who is non black might be the one who is really after you. Because you gave yourself a false sense of security you lower your guard and thats when BLAM. thats when you get it.

Would avoiding racism keep you from becoming closed minded to the plight of the black race? Yes...As far as violence..I believe that any race is capable of committing violent crimes. When exposed to the stimulus which provokes violence..you must ask yourself...am I asking for it?

maybe, maybe not. i don't know. i do know, however, that being prepared {& armed} is very likely to prevent me from becoming a victim of a violent crime, regardless of the race of the person who makes the unfortunate decision to choose me as a target for his or her attempted "violent crime."

why would avoiding black people be safer.. they are people just like you.. human.. just because they are black doesnt mean they are keeping you away from crime. people are people no matter what color u are, crime is every where..no matter the race.

NO, other races are just as violent, just not as arrested - get the pic?
Again, the man above me keeps stating statistics---that is going off of people 'actually convicted in the courts'; many more minorities are booked and doing the time....doesn't mean that there were just as many whites [other] CHARGED ! look up the statistis on peope 'charged' now smarty pants and figure it out...think you're so damn smart

No, color has nothing to to do with violent crimes!! Avoid all people and you might be safe. Alone and destitute, but safe.

NO, how dumb crimes happen all around us, maybe staying out of certain areas but no race is bad, there are only bad people of all races.
