Rod Liddle’s been at it again
Mr Liddle, referring to the case where two teenage rappers tried to murder a pregnant 15-year-old, described the perpetrators as human filth before adding it could be an anomaly, of course. But it isn't. In The Spectator, he then says the overwhelming majority of street crime, knife crime, gun crime, robbery and crimes of sexual violence in London is carried out by young men from the African-Caribbean community
No no no no … cue sirens wailing in liberal north London & alarm bells ringing throughout once Great Britain’s burgeoning multiculturalism industry. However in all fairness to Mr Liddle, he did go on to qualify his remarks by pointing out some positives despite the scale of failure in our post WW2 immigration policies
Of course, in return, we have rap music, goat curry and a far more vibrant and diverse understanding of cultures which were once alien to us. For which, many thanks
Needless to say, the usual appeasers & apologists for black criminals have been swift to vilify Liddle starting with Diane Abbot, MP for Hackney North: so no surprise there then…
It is obviously statistically false to say that the 'overwhelming majority' of the crimes listed by Rod are committed by young black men... The interesting thing is why he chose to post something which, if you chose another set of hysterical racial stereotypes and substituted Jew for Afro-Caribbean, would not have been out of place in a speech by Oswald Mosley
Firstly dear, to the best of my knowledge the Red Sea pedestrians tend not to figure too highly in the crime stats. Yes I fully accept that they can get a little bit lively around the margins of a balance sheet & maybe one or two of those tax deductibles are slightly questionable but for some inexplicable reason they don’t often walk into the building society with a sawn-off
Then again, what with Diane being one of the country’s highest profile oxygen thief’s & whose name sits very close to the top of The List, she remains in complete denial of her own Government’s statistics...
Ministry of Justice figures for 2007/08 show that while 2.2% of Britons aged 10 or above are black, 7.4% of arrests are of black suspects. Of those whose cases are serious enough to be tried in a Crown Court, 14% are black & 6.5% of police cautions are given to black people. Of course it is well known that the reason that black people appear so frequently on the BBC’s Crimewatch isn’t because they commit more crime, it is purely as a function of the institutional racism that is endemic within both the police & the criminal justice system
I know that I am just an increasingly cynical barely sober old b*stard these days & this is probably just me, but do politicians just pick the statistics that suit them & completely ignore those that don’t support the arbitrary answer that they want?

I know Liddle was taking the piss but his list of positives doesn't apply to me...nothing that our darker brothers have brought has enriched my life...nothing.

re- rpg Nothing about Rhianna appeals? you're queer.
back on post you can't quote the BBC-m they're racist! (Climate deniers too, to judge by Nick Crane's Britannia- they acknowledge the little ice age!)

Well, to acknowledge part of my ethnic heritage, Meyer Lansky was a big time hood back in the day and there was a Jewish mob that took over Hell's Kitchen after the Irish mob's sons became cops because they could now manage to pay the bribes to the Irish politicians who had bought their way into city hall.

I miss Rod Liddle in The Sunday Times & hope they never manage to shut him up. Would the non-hysterical Ms Abbot (Oswald Mosley indeed) provide evidence showing Liddle's statement is 'statisticaly false?'Thought not.Watch Crimewatch Ms Abbot, the camera never lies.

Someone should tell the brain dead munter that if you substituted "Jew" for "Afro-Caribbean", the statement would be false. She seems to have a problem with the truth. She's a member of the NuLabor crime family, so no surprise there. At least the hypocritical hag had the decency not to send her own child to the multi-culti hellholes of inner London state schools, there's no need for the offspring of the Comrade Commissar to mix with the lumpenproles is there?

Mosley oh dear, this can't be good for Formula One.
If you take all the new banking regulations and substitute "international Jew conspiracy," they look much more true to form as well. Don't think for a moment that the great drive against corporate capital isn't inspired, at some slight remove, by the Protocols of The Elders of Zion.

There is no reason to expect groups to have equal propensities to criminality though. Testosterone, often linked with violent crime, differs between racial groups.
"Mean testosterone levels in blacks were 19% higher than in whites, and free testosterone levels were 21% higher. Both these differences were statistically significant."
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3455741
Also, are readily identifiable clusters of genes corresponding to traditional continental ethnic groups. Two groups that form distinct clusters are likely to exhibit different frequency distributions over various genes, leading to group differences.
MAO-A variants which place people at greater risk of aggressive behaviour (in combination with childhood maltreatment) also show different frequency distributions across groups.

Also, note global crime rates are consistent with the rates observed by Liddle.
