Well, if you said a large percentage of minorities commit crimes in a certain area of the country, based on statistics, you would be called 'racist'.

It's the world we live in.

Downvoting this is exactly what I am talking about: generalizing that whites are rich is fine, but generalizing that minorities are poor or commit crimes is not.

It's extremely hypocritical and I just can't take someone seriously that has these sorts of views.
