How about looking at socioeconomic factors as opposed to skin color? Let's see how poor whites living in 'ghettos' fair against the white populace used to compare against Belgium crime rate hmm?
Pigs.

Look up the prison population by race, that is all im going to say about that one.

I think Coulter forgot to tell you that the reason gun crime taken as a WHOLE in Belgium is so much lower than America is exactly because of the liberalism she's bagging. God damn Belgian liberals, lowering poverty and giving people an education, limiting gun crime with their education and social systems, actually giving a # about poor people - how very dare they!

I am going to play the "education card" here. In America, at least the one I live in, the "majority" of "crimes" are committed by uneducated individuals, be they white, black, or other. Just go to any low income neighborhood and compare it to an "average middle class" neighborhood. Which one most often has the higher crime rate? Well unless you happen to be living under a rock or just plain blinded by stupidity, you're gonna say the low income neighborhood because that's the very well known and obvious answer. Well educated black people do not commit crimes very often, certainly no more than well educated white people, so any racists claims instantly lose any imagined credibility. However, poorly educated people, both black and white seem to commit crimes much more often. Plus the majority of jail sentences towards both white and black people are for simple possession of that very "drug" that my own brother and many friends have been busted for on many occasions.edit on 17-1-2013 by Anundeniabletruth because: (no reason given)
