Beautiful. The numbers never lie, right? Social status, level of income, level of education, lack of economic perspective.... all those things have no influence on crime rates, obviously. It's just race.

Here's another thing: the vast majority of crimes are committed by men. With violent crime, the percentage is over 90%. So maybe we men should do our part for crime prevention and get rid of ourselves? Heck, the statistics don't lie, right?
