The next time you want to label blacks as criminals....

Any bias or racism aside, that's a bad argument because it doesn't take into effect the ratio of blacks, whites, and Hispanics not in prison. If you look at percentages, blacks surpass whites very easily.

So this is about getting to point fingers at a race?

That was what I got from his post. Hopefully, there will be more and more [white] crime, so I can point the finger. Instead of trying to figure out why the growth is slowing, and maybe trying to expand those efforts.

Please see post #80 in this thread. It completely proves you wrong. For the record, I love black people.

And I love you to man!

You didn't see that mentioned 50 other times in this thread, did you pal?

Neither did the chart. It simply shows that the rate of growth has been slower over the years for blacks than whites. I'm simply using it to state that over the years, there has been a faster increase of whites locked up than blacks. That means that the asinine statement that all blacks are criminals needs to stop.
Do you see the trend that the chart shows? Fast forward that a few more years and the finger can be pointed the other way.

I have no idea why you would choose a statistical analysis of the prison population by race to support an argument against racial prejudice against blacks. At best, your argument is not very well thought out.

Let's settle this here.
Blacks were almost three times more likely than Hispanics and five times more likely than whites to be in jail.

A little outdated but you're still proving my point. If the ration is 8 - 1, then that graph further shows you're a moron. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

If anyone is dumb enough to think that all blacks are criminals, there is no chart in the world that is going to change that mindset.
So, you hope that more whites commit crime so you can "rightfully" call all whites criminals? Are you seriois?

No, I'm hoping that more blacks produce law abiding citizens so that their numbers steadily decline.

Please don't feed to this stereotype.

3M out of 200M whites2M out of 25M blacks

That would be roughly 1.5% of whites and 8% of blacks
