Not sure if you're a troll, a retard, or both, but let's do this shit!

hate to be a debby downer. but per captia means shit.

Compelling argument, I'm sold! Math is stupid and stuff.

who cares if their's places where blacks commit more crimes than white people?

Per capita has nothing to do with location. Blacks commit significantly more crime than whites, on average. Regardless of location. Yes, a lot of that is from the cities, but if that's your argument, that's still got nothing to do with per capita.

if you had an actual case to be made about this issue. why hide behind per capita?

Because that's what really makes the issue so glaring? Per capita just means equalized for population. If blacks were 50% of the population, they'd commit like 140% of the murder. Hyperbole aside, the point stands. Also, do you afford the same logicless defense of other groups, such as Islam? Muslim Americans don't do a whole lot of terrorism. But they're still vastly overrepresented.

if you're claims are true, that black people indeed! do more crimes than white people.

As this very own idiot's stats seems to show, blacks do more specific crimes (murder and robbery) than whites, despite being a much smaller population.

Also, now's a good time to point out that "white" also includes "Hispanic" - because screw white people - and Hispanics also commit a disproportionate amount of crime.

why are you not simply saying overall?

I mean, it's both? 13/50 (again, the numbers have actually risen), but the 50% (murders) is not per capita, and the 13% is pointing out that blacks are a relatively small minority. So, yeah, people point out black criminality both per capita and overall.

I'm not sure why I'm even bothering to address this, honestly. If you're being serious, and can't grasp per capita, you're legitimately retarded.

why individually, in certain sectors of america?

Where are you getting this "sectors" bullshit from?

Do you even know what per capita is?

Do you even basic math?

you can hide behind this to justify your own ignorance.

...I don't even.

but once you show me stats that clearly show black people overall committing more crimes than white people, instead of select areas, we'll talk

Again with the 'select areas' nonsense. Please tell me what 'per capita' means. Honestly, tell me. Because you seem to not know.

Here's a hypothetical: So, imagine you hadn't had breakfast yesterday...nah, just kidding. Here's the real hypothetical (you know what a hypothetical is, right?): Imagine a country where you have two races, white and black. It's a small country, only 100 people. There are 10 whites, and 90 blacks. There's, conveniently, also exactly 100 murders per year. Whites are responsible for 45 murders per year.

In this hypothetical, whites are clearly not committing more crime "overall." Is there a problem with these fictional white people? Should we call out these ten white people, even though they "overall" commit less crime than these ninety fictional black people?

TL;DR: You're either trolling, or legitimately don't know what 'per capita' means. You're a meme.
