    Indeed, which is why it's combined with the other statistics, like how they commit 52% of murders while only having 13% of the population share.

    Being better than the worst does not inherently make you good. But being better than the rest lets you brag.

    Mostly other blacks, but if a cop shoots a black suddenly black life matters, Picking cotton must have been really traumatising it still haunts them today

    We have the douchebags here, we have this black-pete thing that upsets the upset. Doesn't matter to them that it's a perfectly innocent kid's party, they celebrate it in our former colonies as well. Most hilarious, or sad, was that my nephew was attacked by bored white rich kids. He can't whipe it of he's actually black, and played black pete.

    This triangular dynamic among bully, victim, and audience is what I mean by the deep structure of bullying. It deserves to be analyzed in the textbooks. Actually, it deserves to be set in giant neon letters everywhere: Bullying creates a moral drama in which the manner of the victim’s reaction to an act of aggression can be used as retrospective justification for the original act of aggression itself.

    Not only does this drama appear at the very origins of bullying in early childhood; it is precisely the aspect that endures in adult life. I call it the “you two cut it out” fallacy. Anyone who frequents social media forums will recognize the pattern. Aggressor attacks. Target tries to rise above and do nothing. No one intervenes. Aggressor ramps up attack. Target tries to rise above and do nothing. No one intervenes. Aggressor further ramps up attack.

    This can happen a dozen, fifty times, until finally, the target answers back. Then, and only then, a dozen voices immediately sound, crying “Fight! Fight! Look at those two idiots going at it!” or “Can’t you two just calm down and learn to see the other’s point of view?” The clever bully knows that this will happen—and that he will forfeit no points for being the aggressor. He also knows that if he tempers his aggression to just the right pitch, the victim’s response can itself be represented as the problem.

    : You’re a decent chap, Jeeves, but I must say, you’re a bit of an imbecile.

    : A bit of a . . . what!? What the hell do you mean by that?

    : See what I mean? Calm down! I said you were a decent chap. And such language! Don’t you realize there are ladies present?

    And what is true of social class is also true of any other form of structural inequality: hence epithets such as “shrill women,” “angry black men,” and an endless variety of similar terms of dismissive contempt. But the essential logic of bullying is prior to such inequalities. It is the ur-stuff of which they are made.

    What you wrote is the claim an individual made, the link explores if that claim is factual.
    What you need to do is read the verdict, or even better read the two linked studies. Or even just read as far as the bit where "52% of murders" is pointed out to be wrong.

    If you had actually paid attention you would know that it was the Bureau of Justice statistsics who was that individual who says that 52% of murders between 1980 and 2008 were caused by black offenders.

    If you werent lazy maybe you would actually back up your statements and not come off as a contrarian tit.
    Being better than the worst does not inherently make you good. But being better than the rest lets you brag.

    Bullshit.
    If you were not lazy you would notice the difference between your two links.
    "James" is the source you used not the DoJ

    The crime difference is probably because the blacks are all muslims.

    "James" used the DoJ but used words with a different meaning.
