It's a good example of 'wut', given the poor white town has a lesser crime rate than the richest AA town. Who's right? What does 'victimization' mean?

Is there an actual table showing offender rates per group, controlling for income? A neutral person is going to consider the Color of Crime the flip side of SPLC's stuff.

I think you've been around too long to be asking this, but you may have seen this before:pic.twitter.com/aSSsxtgN9Y

I'd say a simple way of cutting through all this chart analysing and just show how many poor whites in American commited crime X, and how many poor non-whites committed crime X, controlling for income, with simple bars

and, of course, showing hte same sources, bc otherwise it's just a crap show to observers IMO

Poor people of race x commit much more crime than equally poor white people. The graphs are actually great evidence for that, but there is plenty of other data analysis out there. Notice that the SPLC doesn't attempt a detailed analysis of the stats.

I'm saying maximum appeal would be doing what I suggested, otherwise you can show stuff like that bjs report like I showed, and frankly I'm still not sure what that indicates.

Here's some NYC data. I'm having a little trouble finding NYC poverty by race, but here's the data for children. Notice the disparity isn't nearly as large as the crime disparity. Also, keep in mind that poverty inherently causing violent crime doesn't actually make sense.pic.twitter.com/oRVXzaBnRJ

Poverty might cause someone to steal, but it doesn't really cause assault. In contrast, does crime cause poverty? Absolutely! Criminals are not good people to hire, for one thing.
