Men are 50% of the population but commit 90% of the murders. Do you hate all men?

This is a snapshot of a time and place so trying to sell a genetic foundation is illegitimate.

What will be the numbers at the height of Italian mafia in america for example?

Well, it's reddigg now. If you question a woman or a brown person, you're a sexist or a racist.

Banning /r/Coontown[2] will not change that fact.

Indirectly? It possibly could. It could change the outlook and atmosphere of black people who feel their communities are marginalised. Delinquency is often attributed to a lack of ties. Be it to family, work, society, anything. Relationships keep people, particularly young adult males, out of trouble. Sending out the message that we, as a society, care about how black people feel, might cause some kids -kids who might not otherwise- feel more connected on the society level, stay out of trouble, and lower that figure.

So you never know ;)
