Using words like man/woman, rich/poor, black/white isn't stereotyping, but believing those words somehow predict human behavior is...

That's probably why he's always giving me shifty looks and carries a gun in the glove box of his Jaguar...
(but I like how you're still using that small pool of numbers to predict human behavior!)

I think it's pretty funny that no one is seriously discussing the gender thing - as if all our pat answers really do explain the race ratios ('cause those are economic) And if you don't think the differences between men and women go deeper than the presence or absence of a penis, all I can say is, "good luck with your haves v. have-nots voodoo incantations."

You do realize my stance on this issue is that both gender & race have less to do with crime than social issues (like wealth or education, as Flaco brought up), don't you? My debate is that the numbers and intent of the original post are bunk, but you can't seem to process what I'm saying because you're still busy looking at the finger instead of what it's pointing at...
Circles... Circles... Circles... (and other "voodoo incantations")
