Point me to an example of such a crime, with all this data about who is walking around that should have been a victim instead but wasnt
you dont need the data. ask the witnesses.
If i'm a cop
cop: "so witness, what did you see?
witness:"uhh i saw a white male run up on three black people"
cop:"why did you just say run up on 3 black people? why are you emphasizing their race?"
witness" because it looked as if thats all they were targetting"
cop:"how so?"
witness: "well for one, i'm white and there were a few white people walking around that they could've robbed but they only chose to rob black people. it wasnt just women, it was black people, didnt matter the age, sex, etc."
cop:" ok, i'll put that in the file"
cop talks to his over head manager and so forth and they tell him to classify that as a robbery. and they will see about reclassifying it later. later never comes and thats the end of that. cop never knows what happened. and thats a good cop doing his job. we know we got all kinds of shady cops(especially in L.A.)
So if its going down in L.A. what you think is going down in the middle of texas? use your common sense.
They have to under report in places where a lot of minorities share the state with a lot of whites to keep tensions down and keep that stigma away.
now i would go out on a limb and say if there was a black county lets say 90% black.. ran by black people. and if the few white folks were being harrassed by black folks. a lot of black folks wouldnt admit it. because it would make their all black city look bad. It takes a special stand up group of leaders to do the right thing in those situations. we already know white folks be lying a lot when it comes to stats. especially when they are trying to "protect their image"
so looking at who normally puts out the data and knowing who's usually in charge in higher positions and knowing their track record. i can use deductive reasoning and say the books were cooked to some degree. up or down, depending on certain criteria.
remember the phrase. 'men lie... women lie..but numbers dont'
actually thats not necessarily true. or what that phrase implies is that as long as their are stats proving a person's point then its fact what has been shown in the stats.
well thats now how statistics work. you do realize if men and women lie ^^See above... and if men and women are the ones putting these numbers together. the numbers themselves could be off ... you do realize this right?
