This depends entirely upon whether one looks at the reasons for why certain races commit more crime than others.

I hate these stats, so misleading. Only 13% of the US population is black!

Implicit in your posts seems to be the assumption that crime rates and arrest rates are equal

I'm not disputing that; I'm saying there's an issue with the overall rates of arrest. *NM*

I don't have any proof of that either way. I agree that broken window policing plays a role. *NM*

he was not choked to death and he was not choked for selling cigerettes

I mean, "Killed him without intent" is pretty much the definition of manslaughter, isn't it? *NM*

Homicide doesn't equal crime, look up the medical/legal definition of the word. *NM*
