From another thread - as in part this was going off OP a bit.
Excellent points you have brought up
However, you mentioned "Americans of African descent " Do we assume that all who are of African descent are actually Amerindians? Same with Latinos -
Victims and Perpetrators
The Link previously referred to:The statistics are interesting. They basically show that, concerning murder, the overwhelming majority of murders are committed by someone of the same race.
Also, there is clearly higher percentage rates of reported crimes committed by Americans of African descent compared to their percentage in the population.
Personally, I would like to see a comparison by age, not just race. Do you have a community where you have a larger percentage of minority youth in comparison to older white people?
For instance, what if Americans of African descent make up 20 percent of a total population but 40 percent of population under 25? A comparison by age might tell us as much or more than a comparison by race.
You can also add comparisons by high school graduations rates, job rates, teenage pregnancies rates.
peace to you
