Two problem with Lasereth's post:

1. He doesn't cite where it came from. He cites the 'FBI' but obviously it is an interpretation of FBI data.
uh, you don't recognize some telling signs of suspicious motives in the wording of the piece, UsTwo?
I'd like to know where he copied the list from.

2. Lists like these never take into account the preponderance of drug-related crime and black-on-black crime which conform to socio-economic criteria that have nothing to do with a white guy walking down the street at night shaking in his boots every time a black dude walks by.
