I know a group who, in my opinion have truly become independent and
free from the stigma of the "African-American" movement. Here is
how they feel about the term "African-American"

These people do not check "African-American" on applications for their race
they check other, then enter black for their race. They vote by their own
judgment, they do not vote the way they are EXPECTED to vote. They place
America as their only country of Allegiance, and origin.

This group in my opinion will truly be the most free, the most independent
and the most accepted group. because they will get more respect for being truly
independent. because to be a true American, one must be independent.
so long live "independents day". an American tradition.


as a result, these people live good lives, hold good jobs and prosper in life
because they infringe on no ones rights, and they join in on the American way
of life.

I can't recall seeing this happen to a young white man either, not saying that it doesn't it would seem that if it did happen it would definitely be national news.

Hmmmm not sure where you are getting your stats, but I found this:

Poison Murders by race

White: 79.8%
Black: 18.4%


Arson by race

White: 55.7%
Black: 42.0%


Sex related murders by race

White: 55.7%
Black: 42.0%


Gang related murders by race:

White: 54.3%
Black: 41.2%
(I hope the irony is not lost on you)


Infanticides by race:

White: 55.4%
Black: 42.1%



Eldercide by race:

White: 54.5%
Black: 43.8%


Multiple victims by race (I assume this includes Serial killers)

White: 55.7%
Black: 40.8%

Even though there are 6 times more whites in the US than blacks, blacks commit more murders.


Murderers by race
White: 45.8%
Black: 52.2%

I see that he didnt make that connection! oops!

Actually the statement keeps being made that Black males account for most murders, well the numbers show that is not TRUE

Also whites account for killing whites and blacks account for killing blacks, so this myth of whites being murdered by blacks is false.

Goodness

They most certainly do. Unless you think black women are committing most of the murders attributed to blacks....we all know how angry black women are.



That is not my contention. Please pay attention.
