The site is racist, but the statistics are 100% correct, verifiable in the Almanac cited. This evidence is not anecdotal.

Will--what the hell? Since when were we discussing violent crime?
That chart has no place in this discussion, and it's also vague as hell. Correlating basic percentage of crime with percentage of minorities is very, very bad social science... that kind of chart is meant to freak people out, not inform them. It's also from 1995.
