I call bullshit.  You're pretending there's justice in the justice system, which you would have to do to believe their numbers correlate to the numbers of actual crimes.

I would call you in denial. Everyone who's lived in a major city knows "that" part of town, whether it's white, black, somewhere in between or whatever.  If I were to take you to some places I know and push you out of my car after dark (without a gun) you'd squeal like a pig, just like any being with any common sense would.

BTW, no one's debating the causes. Lack of freemarket opportunity, good education, IRRATIONAL prejudice and bigotry, and many others have contributed to much of the environment and culture that these places are. The sad facts remain though, and again, if you wish to deny them then that's your business.

I would venture that FTL has lost listeners due to this disconnect. It's their business. I listen anyway. It's like a restaurant where I know what to order and what not. I'll pass on the Kenneth frequency special, but I'd love to have a red-faced Mark smothered in statist loyalty, thanks.

That doesn't mean it has anything to do with their race.  Correlation is not causation.

this being the BBS that it is, that doesn't mean their input will be valued. So for those two, be prepared for the usual.. you'll be fingered as a racist in place of legitimate discussion.

Yeah, racism has never been appreciated here.

Neither have you if we're being honest.

But to the point, this BBS has never confronted or encountered a real case of racism. Accusations and mutual high fives within an insulated peer group is charming to watch though. Boys will be boys.

Fuck you, jackass!  You can stop being an asshole racist, or you can keep being called out.  BTW, I'm calling out your behavior, not your person (and thanks for that.)
