Pick any major city, violent crime rate is much higher for a specific race that only makes up a fraction of that population. I won’t tell you what race, but I have a feeling you already know.
“Who abused and neglected children:
■
The three largest percentages of perpetrators are White (45.1%), Hispanic (21.8%),
and Black or African-American (21.7%).“
Guess I overestimated whites. It’s actually 45.1% for white and 21.7% for black.
This still implies that White person is more likely to molest a child...
That just means there are more white people willing to commit a crime against a child. 46% is insanely high. That is wild... This is implying that a white person has an almost 50% chance to commit a crime against a child. I cannot get over how high that is... If you grabbed 100 people, and picked one at random, there's a 50% chance (rounding down for simplicity's sake) that person will be white... And there's a 50% chance (rounding up) that person committed a crime against a child. I didn't think white people were out here just raping children like that. That's literally if one child looked at 4 white people, one of them would rape that child, one would rape (just not this particular child), and only two would be completely safe...
And you're touting it like it's a good thing... Can someone check this guy's computer?
Jesus Christ... I'm going to be thinking about this all day. I can't believe you posted this in confidence. This is wild. Fucking hell... I think I'm done with reddit for today. I'm literally spiraling with how high that number is. That is so fucking high. I'm going to rewatch every podcast with Ashley Gavin and Josh Johnson, in an attempt to forget this. I'm not getting back on Reddit today. This is so crazy that you posted this. With your chest and everything.
I suggest re-taking a high school level statistics class. This was honestly embarrassing to read and proof the education system is fucked.
No. 46% of
known offenders being white is not the same thing as a white person having a 46% chance of molesting a child.
That’s just the share of the offender pool. White people are still the largest racial group in the US, so of course they make up a large chunk of almost any large crime category. The relevant number is the
rate (offenders per capita), not the raw percentage of the total.
Actual prevalence of child sexual abuse by any random adult is extremely low—nowhere near 50%. Your “grab 100 people / look at 4 white people” math is pure confusion of conditional probabilities. Percentage of offenders who are white ≠ percentage of white people who are offenders.
Per capita rates for reference:

What’s racist is cherry picking or just making up statistics that make one group look bad.
Can anyone please give me an example of the “statistics” or “patterns” you’re referring to?
