Why do people get angry when people say that people from different races are different biologically? Seems obvious to me - many races have different features that everyone can see, but anyone who points that out is a racist. Am I a racist if I say black people build muscle better than white people? Am I a racist if I say that black people have bigger noses, or something of the sort? Is it really racism or is just the inability to take criticism?

Because its not the truth. LIL Kim, oh my bad Tamika (yeah right)
Check out the FBI uniformed reports. the Census Bureau!
In 2005 blacks made up 15% of the U S population, they accounted for 27.9 percent of the crime in the U S 90% of that was black on black crime.
67% of the crime was done by whites.
Yes the black crime rate is almost double for that of our population. But look at the conviction rate. Blacks are 5 times more likely to be convicted of a crime that whites do, hispanics are 3 times.
Just remember baby girl whites = 74.7% of the U S population (which is decreasing every year) There are 50 states that make up the good ole U S of A. The majority of blacks live in the south a little more in the east. So who is doing most of the crime in th west, Southwest, and the Northwest.
Theres more whites on welfare, than any other ethnic group in America. 74% vs 15% that means, come on now, do the math. I said it before, and I will say it again. Whatever the majority is, they are and are doing it.
Ask yourself this, why do they critizise rap, but not the child porn industry. What rap song exist where they talk about molesting children. What black organization exist that is made up of pedophiles!
If it is documented prove it!
Peace!
P.S. you are going to wear yourself out, coming at me. Any thing you can do I can definity do better.
Bring it!

It has nothing to do with the color of your skin. It has to do with the percentage of blacks that are poor. There is a disproportionate number of blacks that live in poverty compared to whites, which probably has to do with less opportunity available to blacks than to whites. People that live in poverty are more likely to commit crimes, such as theft, or drug trafficking. I'll bet if you looked at a study that showed what percentage of poor whites committed crimes, compared to poor blacks, the percentages would be very close to the same. The numbers that show that blacks commit more crimes than whites is only true if you look at the whole population; rich, middle class, and the poor. It's a poor way to show that blacks are more likely to commit crimes than whites, and I wish people would stop using that statistic because it's fundamentally flawed!

People mistake statements about culture and race often. Everyone has to remember that they can only comment on what they have seen or experienced. I may make some statements about blacks or any other race that are true within my scope of things, and those comments would not be racist but rather fact. People run into problems when they generalize things like saying "All blacks do this..."

You didn't even factor in all aspects of crime, such as corporate embezzlement, credit card scams, scam artist, serial killers, etc. When you factor in ALL crime, not just the ones that suit your agenda, then you will find the number of blacks that commit crimes is the same as the number of whites that commit crimes. It just so happens that the types of crimes blacks and other poor people commit the most carry the highest rate of jail sentences. The number one offense that blacks get locked up for is drug offenses, mainly crack and marijuana. Now it's a proven fact that mostly whites sell cocaine yet you would have to poses ten times the amount of cocaine in order to receive the same jail time as 1 ounce of crack cocaine, which is what majority of blacks and poor people sell, equal treatment for crimes, I don't think so. It's proven that poorer people are more likely to go to jail for a crime than a rich person, regardless of race, it just so happens that there are more poor blacks and hispanics than whites.

Nobody likes to be put in a negative category, and most people want to claim "I'm not like that" or "It's not me". So they may get defensive because they don't see how it could be true. But really, every race commits crimes and does bad things, so it shouldn't matter anyway.

Read books on child abuse and then relate it to society. People who are abused usually act out in more abusive ways and feel hatred, bitterness, and want the world to give to them. If blacks were abused in people they have more chances of being abusive just like kids who grew up in abusive homes. It's a big circle, and it can go down generations. so if 3 generations ago blacks were abused then they may take it out on their kids, then the kids goes and take it out on their kids and there's the cycle. In a way it is the abusers fault and you also have the power to change and do what you can to break the cycle.

I am currently taking criminology, a study on crime and why it happens.
Black are incarcerated more than most people in this country, but it is for petty crimes --- drug dealing, petty theft, and oftentimes just because they are black and the system locked them up unjustly.
Whites commit a lot of crimes, as do all the other groups. It's just that some groups more than others get slaps on the wrists and let go more often.

At last some of the prominent black folks are saying that they need to stop defending the felons, because it's making the whole race look bad. Why did it take so long for them to realize that?
