it's always interesting to read what posters write and catch a glimpse of how they frame things. sometimes it's thought provoking and insightful, and sometimes it's not. "black people...form gangs,...white people form governments" certainly is in the later category.

the higher incidence of crimes committed by blacks as a % of the overall pop is a reflection of the social factors prevalent, principally economic ones. lower income/wealth, lack of property ownership resulting in more transitory nature, breakdown of the family units and lastly difference in prosecution by the state (a black defendant is more likely to be convicted than a white defendant, crack cocaine which is mostly found in black urban areas is treated differently than powdered cocaine which is found in white surbuban areas).

heres a link to data on offenders
recidivism is also higher among black americans.
