Maybe we're saying the same thing. If all crimes were proportional to race, Ferguson blacks would be getting 67% of the tickets, therefore when Ferguson blacks get 82%, it's not the statistical big deal some would see.

quote:

crimes committed are not proportional to the racial distribution of the population.


That's where there's a bone of contention. One can conclude:
1) Blacks commit more crimes per capita,
2) Police fixate on catching blacks instead of whites,
3) Blacks are not lucky,smart/rich enough to get away with their crimes,
4) Greater percentage of blacks are lower class, and lower class people are more likely to be criminal,
5) All of these and probably many others.

Crime is directly related to socio-economic status. Therefore one can expect the Black and Hispanic crime rate to be higher than the national average and the Jewish and Asian crime rate to be lower than the national average.
