re: If the Federal Government Were to Discontinue the Collection of Data by Race

I think the facts bear out the perception. Gov't numbers indicate 13% of the population commit 36% of all major crimes. Do you think the public doesn't see this? This is a case where perception is reality.

This is one of the places where the perception is born out. Every evening on the news are pictures of those that have committed major crimes. Every evening 3/4+ of the faces are black.
