Question:
Why are young black men seen as so dangerous when pedophiles and anti govt militias/school shooters/abortion clinic bombers are white?

Doesn't make sense to me. Seems you need to worry about the rural areas and the suburbs more and stop sermonizing black men. Pedophiles, anti government militias/terrorists, white collar criminals, and school/mass shooters are always white.

I don't know if anyone on here has children or a smart phone. I have a sex offender app that will give me every registered sex offender within a 10 mile radius. It gives their addresses, photos, charges and convictions thereof. I sat down with pencil and paper and did the math and I came to the conclusion that in my area (where black/white % is almost 50/50) that 72.3% were white males and of those 75% were older white men. You know "the nasty old men" kind. It would behoove everyone to get this app (it's free) and do the math yourself.

False assumption. There are pedophiles in every race, you just picked one or two of each "villain" from the news that happen to be white.



Also, to assume that a handful of super dangerous shooters/terrorists are somehow more scary than a common street thug who may shoot you, rape you, rob you, etc is looking at the media coverage as a indication of danger level.



Which is more dangerous to you? A loose elephant or a speeding car with a distracted driver? Why don't you ignore all the cars when crossing a busy street? Because you KNOW that a car can run you over and it happens a lot(pedestrian/car accidents). SO you are more wary of the cars rather than looking out for loose elephants.



A common thug doesn't have to be black. So people fear common criminals more than big name media-driven criminals because they are more likely to encounter the common criminal than a terrorist.



It's not all about race and there's plenty of bad in each race.

It has to do with percentages, homey G.



Some people recognize that if 20% of a group has criminal records, versus < 1% of a group committing mass crimes, the first group will LOGICALLY be seen as more dangerous.



Logic and rationality - you should invite them into your life, sometime.

Think media attention.



Ever heard of:



The Wichita massacre?

Virginia Tech shootings?

John Allen Muhammad and Lee Boyd Malvo?

Maj. Nidal Hasan?

Nikko Jenkins?

Erbie Lee Bowser?

John Zawahri?

Derrick Brantley and Deshanon Haywood?

Brothers Cedric Poore and James Poore?



Again, think media coverage.

Since 1982 (all I could find)



http://www.motherjones.com/mojo/2013/09/mass-shooters-race-aaron-alexis



11 of 67 cases were black shooters= 16.42%



44 of 67 cases were white shooters= 65.67%



Population of blacks in USA= 12.6% so the rate is in fact higher proportionally.



Population of whites in USA= 72.4% so the rate is in fact lower proportionally.



Based on 2012 population statistics.

Two words most of you here need in your vocabulary: implicit association.

Now run along and start reading, get an education and all of your answers and racist ideologies will be answered and a light shed on your unfortunate ignorance. :D

the above names registered democrats except McVeigh.

Militias are a constitutional right and they dont exclude blacks and are not ant governemnt except the one in MI run by democrats

the PBS pedophile was black

Dorner was black

I havnt heard of a asbortion bombing in decades but the convicted abortion monster was black



you must be a ignorant libtard
2014-03-15 06:49:13 UTC
There are black ones too. And they are seen as dangerous because they ARE. They have a tendency to 'lose control' and hit people. I haven't spent my life in a lily white world. I see things. And I've been on the receiving end of it. I've been hit by black males (females too) that apparently didn't like the way I looked. But since it was at school, nothing was done about it. Of course. We mustn't be 'racist'.

Blacks are 12% of total population yet commit 1/2 of murders in the U.S......that is why.
2014-03-15 06:40:52 UTC
The reason that these names you put up are so well known and gang wars are not, is that gang wars kill so many we are used to it. There are bad people of all races. There are bad people of all religions.

Because 13% of the population are over achievers, when it comes to violent crime.

You are picking out a hand full of whites. Go to your county jail and have a look around. 1 in 3 black males is involved in crime. Chicago last year 816 murders......not one white murderer.

Because young black men have an extraordinarily high violent crime rate. It is that simple.

2014-03-15 06:43:27 UTC
Why is it then that the only one making it about race are people like you? Conservatives want all criminals punished and we don't care what race the person is who commits a crime. It's only liberals who are trying to peddle lies that make it about race.
2014-03-15 06:53:59 UTC
because the young people are angry people

and who can possible blame them? No ONE

The listed men are either dead or in jail now.
2014-03-15 06:44:30 UTC
So let's stereotype all white men instead....
2014-03-15 06:41:18 UTC
You make no sense to me
