I don't think I've ever seen someone here list the black crime statistic without using it to bolster some blatantly racist concept that isn't factual at all. Thats good you realize that, seriously. The black crime statistic is real but no one is gonna mention it because it should be common knowledge and doesnt be really add much to a conversation or they get called racist. Facts can be unpleasant or hard to hear but it doesnt make someone saying them racist. Many people have a hard time deciphering that. It isnt racist to say (or it shouldnt be lol) Africa is behind the rest of the world in economic development. Some would say well yeah but colonization and stuff my response is lol no, the countries that were colonized are the most developed ones.
