      9/ why limit it to "black" ? Crime CORRELATES with African, but not at the 1.0 level. Tons of good African Americans, and tons of terrible whites. That's part of the point of my rant - big data lets us get PRECISE. Race is a heuristic but imperfect.https://twitter.com/american_sulla/status/1181553602042777601 …

      I have suggested many times offering freedom and generous UBI for life as reparations to any black prison inmates willing to permanently emigrate to Africa thus reversing the injustice of the Middle Passage. This solves the problem you pose.

      12/ So Africans are poor and violent in the Chicago, in Sweden, in South Africa, in Kenya, in the Congo, in France, in Washington DC, in Haiti, etc., but you assert confidently that this is "NOT" anything relating to race? Fascinating.https://twitter.com/manforoneseason/status/1181555034368004097 …

      the problem is not ‘africans’ but is instead the disproportionate rates of poverty and the racial wealth gap/deep, structural racism and political and social disenfranchisement/colonialism (in the case of african states)

      13/ Given that data shows that crime correlates with both age and gender, and thus the data shows that crime tracks very closely with testosterone, would expect, a priori, that populations with higher testosterone levels would have more or less crime?

      15/ You're moving goal posts. You specifically talked about the demographic changes in the US from 1900 to the current year, and when I pointed out that there WEREN'T any (at least on the black percent), you've dodged and changed your thesis. No bueno. https://twitter.com/gaitanalyst/status/1181556248459780097 …

      16/ I agree that there isn't an existing reparations narrative for white criminals, but that doesn't mean I can't start one! I think that national divorce (red vs blue) is good, but is only a small start. We need much more devolution!https://twitter.com/american_sulla/status/1181566246770401281 …

      There isn't a reparations narrative or movement for other people that I know of. Plus you were talking about segregation from the bad ones in prison to whom this would be offered. Voluntary of course. "Do you want to get out of prison and get free money for life?"

      18/ There was a great article in The Atlantic (moderately left of center) while back about the great idea to end "projects" and move poor people out into the suburbs where their environment would be much better and they could learn to behave middle class https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2008/07/american-murder-mystery/306872/ …

          19/ and - BELIEVE IT OR NOT - taking the kind of people who, through their own actions and choices and habits, were poor and criminal, and moving them into decent neighborhoods, just meant that they could crap up new victims. Great article. Read the whole thing.
