People have made massive changes to their lives based on the threat of racial violence - the actual level of it is a low background compared to what would be the case if everyone didn't go to great lengths to isolate themselves from *problematic* demographics

#last - Obviously, sane people prefer not to live in ghettos or trailer parks. But, this claim that in a typical integrated, middle-income city like my Frankfort, a typical guy is in danger from roving mobs of Blacks or poor whites or whatever is statistical nonsense.2 replies 0 retweets 2 likes -

No, it is not. Black people make up 14% of the country, overall, and 15% of those who attack whites. This is the actual national crime report, from a GOP administration. https://www.bjs.gov/content/pub/pdf/cv18.pdf …

I think this is a key point for people who don't take the Flaherty argument seriously. Now, first, if you send me your e-mail via DM, I will send you a list of absurd white-on-Black crimes, most of which involve a video. I'm not going to get into a one-for-one on a comments line.

In other words you can't come up with shut videos of white on black violence. Don't feel bad. Many have claimed they could but never followed through. You are not the first, nor will you be the last

Literally just e-mail me. I'm going to keep engaging here, because I find this argument so remarkably weak. First (1) I already responded. Second, (2) real scientists don't base their crime rate data on YouTube fight videos. Are you serious?

When you have good reason to suspect dishonesty in official data, a good sanity check is to turn to anecdotal evidence - check the patterns found in a large number of anecdotes. Expect more of this as society moves to a low trust equilibrium with lower institutional honesty.

In this case...bruh...we HAVE crime data. Every serious law enforcement agency in the USA has to report all Index crimes to the Feds every year. This is called the "UCR." We then double-check THAT, to prevent cheating, with an anonymized million-person interview called the "BJS."

Yes, I agree that the crime data is quite good and if I implied otherwise that was my mistake.
