There yall go with those stupid statistics again that you obviously don't understand. The likelihood of a baby being aborted is 50/50 so stop with the 3 times more likely mess cause it just makes yall look foolish.

Either a baby will be aborted or it won't. The likelihood is the SAME across the board:

50%

That, and we aren't told by people like Zaac that we have to solidly stand behind, protect, make excuses for and defend the worst members of an ethnic group.

Since the perps are white, we can say, "ok, lock 'em up".
If the perps were black, blacks would be told they have to defend and make excuses for the thugs who did this.

And of course if you look at white on white homicides and the percentage of deaths it accounts for versus black on black homicides and the percentage of deaths it accounts for, then it really blows your narrative out of the water.

Except I don't expect you to take an honest look at anything. You're on a mission to spread a particular agenda and nothing (not even truth) will get in your way.

It's a shame that you've turned into this. I used to respect your position, but it seems that recently you've stopped taking your medication and have gone full kilter wacko.

And of course if you look at the number of homicides committed and the number of rapes and the aggravated assaults and the burglaries and larceny and forgeries and frauds and embezzlements and stolen property and vandalisms and sex offenses and drug abuse violations and offenses against family and children and DUIs and liquor laws and drunkedness and disorderly conduct and all other offenses, guess who is committing many times more crime?

White-on-White crime. It's the real deal.

One can do some amazing things with statistics. My favorite search engine notes 3.9 million live births in the US in 2013, and 1.05 million abortions (which is about 1.05 million too many), while a post upthread says the chances of a baby being aborted is 50%. Must be the Common Core math. And when comparing various crime rate numbers, one can do it by counting total incidents or by looking at the proportions by ethnic groups compared to those groups' share of the total population. The answers will usually not be the same for each methodology.

Nationwide, there's probably just as much WOW crime as there is BOB. Problem is that the media usually focuses more on one than the other.

Then too, it often depends on what a person defines as a "crime." IOW, what one individual considers as a "crime," another one may not do so.

Yes, the Ferguson's and the Baltimore's usually grab the headlines, but there's not a day that goes by that I don't hear police sirens going on where I live. The same could be said about the location of the church of which I'm a member ( www.lighthouseministries.org ).

All of this shows that all have sinned, which is something being forgotten from [religiously] the top down, when we get into comparing statistics (and media hype/spin) trying to prove another group has "bigger problems" than one's own. (We could also mention the "rioting" over sports games; won or lost, which isn't even a reaction to perceived injustice; "excuse" or not!)

Even if statistics for particular acts might seem to make some look "better" or "worse", all have the same problem (and some may be better at hiding their sin), and the back and forth is clearly a reaction to the other side accusing them. All men want to see themselves as "good", despite their sin. To play along with this game is to prolong the problem. And those who claim to have the moral higher ground should even more be the ones to set the example, regarding "taking responsibility, instead of blaming".

Oh I do. Yall the ones who keep making the same mistake and stating with bravado that your statistically wrong statements are truth.

Likelihood that someone will do something is always 50/50.

What I keep explaining and those of you set on pushing a certain narrative don't want to listen to is that the numbers you keep mentioning are for a CLOSED SET of people who DID certain things.

They ARE NOT a measure of how something would happen in the general population.

Either you will shoot him or you won't. 50/50. Same as the likelihood of shooting any white man I see.

Well I personally don't battle with that decision each time I see another human being. Maybe you should see a shrink about your issue, because it's not normal.

Stop talking and patting yourself on the back at the same time. You're making yourself look ridiculously stupid as you CLEARLY don't know what you're talking about.

It was your scenario. I just assumed you had shooting black men on your mind so you mentioned it. I can recommend some folks for you to get you through this hateful phase.:thumbsup:

That 50/50 (will do/won't do) sounds a bit like fatalism - life is a coin flip. However, just because there are exactly two choices does not automatically mean that each choice is equally probable. Looking at past performance can be a useful method of guessing at future results. I suspect most here believe in a sovereign God, and He's not flipping coins.

And I agree with Eric that the fact we are all sinners can strongly bias our choices.

Is that an example of the Christian love that you are constantly lecturing us about? :laugh:
