If the black murder rates are less than 100x the amount of white murder rates, the white man you encounter is literally a higher risk statistically. And even if the ratio of murders is higher than 100x, you're still talking about a white man living among 99% blacks in a violent area.

At 2AM, with no one else on the street, alone, the rational decision is the side with the white man I guess what I meant to ask was - would you be equally on guard walking by the white man vs walking by the black man?

Inviso 04/01/18 11:59:30 PM #206:	The problem is that every person is the main character of their own life, and most people don't believe themselves to be the villain. At worst, they are the anti-hero (a la Walter White) going up against a greater evil. This is why they either make up "both sides" narratives so that, even though they're doing bad things, it's not as bad as the guys they're up against. Or...they justify their bad actions as not being bad at all for one reason or another. And the problem comes when one "side", whether they want to admit it or not, is actively more malicious than the other. In order to maintain that "both sides are bad/we're the good guys" mentality, you need to demonize you opponent by calling them baby-killers, or demonize survivors of a school shooting by comparing them to Nazis. No introspection. That would mean considering the possibility that you're the bad guy, or at least that you support the ideals of bad guys. --- Touch fuzzy. Get fuzzier.

And why is it so hard to admit that's racist? racism rsizm/Submit noun prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior. "a program to combat racism" synonyms:racial discrimination, racialism, racial prejudice, xenophobia, chauvinism, bigotry, casteism "Aborigines are the main victims of racism in Australia" the belief that all members of each race possess characteristics or abilities specific to that race, especially so as to distinguish it as inferior or superior to another race or races. Because it's not about other races being superior. Or about all members of that race possess characteristics specific to that race. It's because people of that specific race commit a lot of violence in that specific area. Take two bars. The first is a white biker bar, and the place has a reputation for brawls and violence. Everyone talks about how fights/stabbings etc happen there all the time. The second bar is a black bar with no reputation for any sort of unsavory incidences.

Wouldn't "white people don't commit as much crime as black people" imply that one of the two races is superior to the other, due to the difference in crime prevalence? No, but that's the entire problem, thats the implication you see, but not one that is being made. There are a thousand mitigating reasons why black people may commit more crime than white people, and in American settings, at the top of the list is institutional racism against black people putting them in shitty desperate situations where they are then more likely to commit violent crime. I'm not even saying black people commit more crime than white people.

They make the statement "black people commit more crime" and that colors their opinions of all black people, regardless of the situation, and they feel justified because they cherry pick that first nugget of information.

You're not using race as part of the 100 factors in this case. Now explain why in your 99% black scenario, you would be less wary of passing by a white man than a black man. Explain why my analysis of the stats in #201 is wrong. Or I guess to go with your latest scenario since you seem to have ditched your previous ones for some reason: let's say you encounter a black man in the violent biker bar.
