That would still lead to more black people being stopped than white though
and the argument would continue

But then you're providing a valid justification.
At the moment it is totally unjustified, and I don't think the percentage of ethnic minorities that actually get found guilty of crimes is that much greater than that of "white" people.

According to my policeman mate it is.
But then he's A) insitutionally racist and B) working in a poor, black area.

I seem to remeber a stat that said the black population makes up X of the overall population, but are responsible to Y% of crimes. Ie more than they should be for their size
the simple explanantion for this is the amount of black people living in poor urban areas, where you get to the real issue which is poverty rather than race.

This is basically it
if anything like that can be reduced to a single factor.

Plus they are more likely to get stopped by the police, so get caught more often than their white counterparts.

interesting. probably true, but presumably impossible to prove.

there are some racial indicators in crimes
a disproportionate amount of drugs/robbery/burglary tend to be black, but you get to the other end of the scale, the rapists, the murderers, and they are nearly all white. as apey says, the former is explicable due to social-economic factors. but why are all the really sick cunts white? weird.

Similar reason.
I mean, assuming you're talking about serial offenders, sexual violence and sadistic murder tends to be a middle class crime, presumably to do with some fucked up aspect of upbringing/boredom/whatever I guess. So you could argue if that socio-ecomonic group is predominently white, so will the criminals

I'm not sure more rapists and murderers in general are white though, I bet it pretty much exactly mimics the ethnicity stats in the UK. There are just more white people here.

this is as good an explanation as any
i mean, you think of a really sick fucker, your albert fishes, your ian bradys, your myra hindleys - all white.

i read somewhere that a lot of killers have lower than average IQs and higher than average testosterone levels - guess that would explain why so many of them are male. hmmm.

You've just named 3 white serial killers.
But I can't think of any others.

Oh hang on, John Wayne Gacy. That's 4, i'm sure that's not representative.

I heard they were so middle class about it that they had to post their knives and penises back and forth across the country so as to ensure confidentiality.
