England; Two arrested after multiple people stabbed

[Oldcarpy2]

Your city black population is 4%.
Our city black population is 16%.
With that demographic comes crime problems.
That's the uncomfortable truth of it.

Which city?  He wasn't from London but I don't know where you get 4% from.

I hate to say it, but that does sound a tad..... racist?

No, you don’t hate to say it or you would have stopped by now.
Racism sexism etc is the go to when you can’t recognize the elephant in the room.
Facts don’t care about your feelings.

Really?

I don't care for your "feelings" much.

Racism is as racism does.

What does racism have to do with a certain segment of the populations over representation in violent crime statistics?

Then post the statistics for Peterborough and we can have a conversation.

Post statistics? LoL
You already said it’s racist despite you admittedly not even looking at the stats.
Give the pearls a break.

If you really thought people using crime statistics are racist then you’d start a thread, and I know you won’t because you know the truth.
It doesn’t care about your feelings either.

OK, Mr Angry.

Way to go.

That's really helpful.....

Maybe you should start a thread on crime statistics instead of gaslighting this one?

I don't think there’s any credible evidence that Black people are inherently more criminal or commit more crimes in the UK.

Or if there is, presenting it might be nice.

Maybe that's different for Peterborough....

But im doubtful.

The horrible bastard in British anyway.

Born and raised here, so im not quite sure what colour has to do with it.

While most offenders across England and Wales are from the White ethnic group in absolute numbers (78% of arrests in 2022/23), Black individuals are disproportionately over-represented relative to their population size. Black people were 2.2 times as likely to be arrested as white people nationwide. Peterborough's population is predominantly White (75.4% in the 2021 Census), with Asian and Black residents making up 14.3% and 4.1% respectively. National data on ethnicity in the criminal justice system suggests a general over-representation of some ethnic minorities in arrests, particularly in urban areas.

Someone owes FF an apology.

Arrested?  Yes.  Now try prosecuted and convicted.

Like I say, jog off and start your own racist thread and stop gaslighting this one.
