Can any news from Detroit be presented now without giving story a racial twist. I clicked the link expecting get details of what had happened and found a person giving me a moral lecture.
>86% of our victims in these untested kits are people of color.
Calling it a "racial twist" sounds completely disingenuous to me. There is obviously a strong racial component here. Why do you think it's a problem to point that out?
There is a strong racial component everywhere. However a grown up person already knows what to expect from mostly black-populated city. White people leave such area for a reason. No one need to explain and give its own ideas about it. We all know what government wants us to hear and we all know what the real truth is. So skip to the point - give the facts and let us make conclusions ourselve.
But you wouldn't expect the rapes to be randomly distributed. Wayne County is a tale of two cities. There are rich white suburbs and the poor, black city.
You have to compare the untest kits to the demographics of record victims. It's likely women of color are much more often victims of rape. That is the trend nationwide.
The point is that this is a city with a large majority of blacks, and it just so happens to have terrible police. That isn't a contingent circumstance.
Everyone with money left well before 1990, the vast majority of white flight took place in the 60s, 70s, and 80s
Edit sp332, lol yes 2/3 of the white population remaining in 1990 left after that, the problem with your line of thinking is 86% of the white population had already fled by 1990. 2/3 of 14% is not much...
