      <![CDATA[The intention of this article was not to race bait, it is to inform. I hope the simple use of the terms black or Hispanic or white wouldn’t provoke anger in people.

      <![CDATA[HOWEVER! If Tiara really is concerned about these numbers and not just race-baiting maybe she'll follow up with an article that adds in economic factors: they may play a more important role here than race.

      <![CDATA[The comments are getting very ugly. What we need is some love, compassion, and forgiveness for one another, folks....I've had some very rough experiences being attacked, threatened, hassled and ripped off, leg broken, etc. etc., by angry black men, so I am motivated to see healing for our broken society.

      <![CDATA[Hot button issue for sure, but the "elephant in the room" is and always has been the simple fact that blacks are simply a more violent less disciplined group. And the statistic converts almost directly to society in general, and the stink about "racial profiling" is a rather transparent effort to minimize or distort and even deny facts that are so "in your face" our grandchildren will say "what were they thinking".
