The whole deal with racism falls or stands with whether you can generalise or not. Supposedly, in the PC line of thinking, you can´t say- Blacks are less smart and more criminal than whites- because there are exceptions to it.
There´s exceptions to anything. It makes no difference. Men are taller than women. Even if Danny Devito is shorter than Angelina Jolie. Generalisation is the first step to understanding the world and ignoring marginal exceptions is essential to the entire hermeneutic intellectual field.
In your field, innocents get locked up sometimes, but it´s decided that that is worth it to lock up all the guilty people. On the same count I could decide that black people are poorer, dumber and more criminal than I am and adopt that as an outlook on their demographic.
A WHOLE OTHER separate debate deals with the question of whether this difference is genetic or environmental. No real conclusions are there, little research is done and few want to open that can of worms. For the main recent scientific work dealing in part with this question, see "Diversity and Race" by Dr Jean-Philippe Rushton
Despite this opinion of mine, I do not disrespect or discriminate against blacks in any way that matters. I don´t get in their way or insult them or act inpolitely. In my mind I have my thoughts and the main characteristic I will remember about that person I saw is they were black.
This is Belgium btw. I live in a student town with few non students living here. Blacks are few and far between and most dont even speak the national language.
lol at an 18 year old kid living in a lilly white town in the Netherlands that has met three black people in his life making gross generalizations about an entire race.
