Facts are a real buzzkill for trendy leftist theories
American Thinker ^ | 9 May, 2021 | Bob Kingsley

Posted on 05/09/2021 7:02:03 AM PDT by MtnClimber

When one finds facts offensive, then the truth must be offensive as well.

The U.S. population is more or less evenly split between men and women, yet 90% of those incarcerated are men, according to FBI crime statistics. Nearly 75% of NBA players are black, while 97% of professional golfers are white. From these facts, it is reasonable to conclude that men commit more crime than women, blacks are better at basketball than whites, and whites are better at golf than blacks. This isn't sexist or racist; these are observable facts reinforced by reality and observable in the world around us.

The lunacy of the left argues that prisons and professional sports are inherently racist because their numbers fail to match the demographic distribution of men and women or blacks and whites in society. Leftists don't seek equal opportunity for all; they seek equal outcomes regardless of talents, choices, and ambitions. Leftists don't seek the level playing field they claim; instead, they want a scheme to fix the game and dictate the score.

Asians SAT scores are the highest of any race, blacks the lowest. Blacks are on food stamps at a rate of 27.9%. It's 7.6% for Asians. Black unemployment is 9.7%. For Asians, 5.6%. As a group, Asians are better educated, more employable, and less likely to be on welfare than are blacks. Again, facts.

Blacks kill each other at a rate ten times higher than they die at the hands of the police.

Over 90% of black homicides are committed by black men. Black men are about 6% of the population, yet they commit over 50% of all murders and robberies and represent over five times the prison population of whites.

Everyone is an individual and I think they should be treated as individuals too.

“whites are better at golf than blacks”

Tiger Woods would disagree frequently.

The smallest minority in the world is the individual.

Let uncle pedo joe set us straight: “ We choose unity over division. We choose science over fiction. We choose truth over facts.” IOW, facts? Who cares when truth is on your side? Right pedo joe?

and the rest of the math no one ever does.
basic on the FBI UCR.
African Americans kill about twice as many whites as the reverse.
But do the math based on national demographics..
That means an African American is 12 times as likely to kill a white person as the reverse.

Blacks are better at putting bigger balls through bigger holes. Whites are better at putting smaller balls through smaller holes.

I used to work as a delivery driver. One of my co-workers was Chinese, and he used to say “Asians are the worst drivers in the world.”

The golf bit indeed requires explanation as golf early and to the degree to enable pro capability is expensive and overwhelmingly white. Many pro black athletes from other sports become great golfers later in life, once they have the time and resources to transfer their athletic skills.

After reading the article, the troublesome minority in the black community seems quite large.

But, then again, facts are racist.
