and same in India , in 99.9999 % it must be women , Dalits , Muslims .. here itâs due to misogyny , casteism and islamophobia .. stats wouldnât show you how racism and casteism exist in this country and no they arenât being targeted or assaulted just cos they live some where , they are targeted for their skin color , sexuality , gender , cast , religion
You're telling me 2005 to 2019 is not current enough when you're quoting 2019 alone? How is mine which covers more than a decade from 2005 to the most recent census (2019) not current while yours which deals with 2018-2019 recent?
Also, you're citing news articles while I cited actual statistics from the Bureau of Justice Statistics.
From the info I posted: https://www.bjs.gov/content/pub/pdf/vvre0519.pdf
(only citing 3 years)
2017 crime stats against races - 2.1% white 2.2% black, 2.1% Hispanic, 17% other
2018 crime stats against races - 2.5% white, 2% black, 1.9% Hispanic, 2.5% other
2019 crime stats against races - 2.1% white, 1.9% black, 2.1% Hispanic, 2.4% other races.
Crime on all races remained more or less steady. Your articles merely state out of those crimes committed, race-based crimes went up. So are you telling me non-race-based crimes on blacks, Hispanics, and other races went down? Because the totals remained more or less steady.
Or do you want to see whole numbers?
2019 crimes by race:
White victims - 3.6 million+
Black victims - 0.6 million+
Hispanic victims - 1 million+
Other races - 0.6 million-
Demographics of U.S.A -
White - 73%
Black - 12.7%
Hispanic - 17.6%
The whole numbers on crime victims are similar to %ge of population. Imagine that!
Yes, crime exists in the U.S. But claiming every crime committed here is on the basis of race is intellectual dishonesty.
Will give you another nugget to think about:
Black Americans have been here for generations. But a lot of Hispanic and Asian Americns have ties to old countries. Why aren't they hightailing it out of the U.S.?
Why are there still so many trying to come to the U.S. if it is the racist and violent country you're trying to portray it as?

People know what ground reality is here. Those wanting to come here also know the reality. U.S. isn't perfect, but it is still one of the better places in the world.
