Wasnt assuming anything as your position was unclear; I was just adding important context since your statistics weren’t worth very much without it (e.g., noting that whites commit more crime isn’t meaningful without the context that they are a larger part of the population, and very often it is used to mislead).
Regarding the rest of your post, I can’t relate to your characterization as you seem to have a very different, very negative experience with white people than I have had. Since we can’t do much more than trade anecdotes, I’ll be ducking out now.
I mentioned that whites are a majority of the population. I wrote:
This despite the fact that whites - due to being a majority of th population - consume a majority of the welfare.
I’m just posting my own observations and views. I did quote some very specific examples to support my view but what I wrote wasn’t to be taken as conclusive proof.
There are a vast number of articles and scholarly works published on the issue of race portrayal in American media. You can do a web search to find them if you are interested in the topic.
By the way, I’m upper class white. Have very little experience with inner city black culture but realize that even using the phrase “inner city” is pretty much coded language. When people talk about inner city problems inevitably one thinks of brown people. You and your friends may be exceptions to this but statistics and surveys show otherwise for most people.
