This may have already been posted & the stats are sort of old but here's the link: http://www.ircruise.com/nchs_statistics.html
I am not sure if its a personal thing but statistics, especially those produced by the American media, do not mean a thing to me. I am not a man of "official statistics" as they tend to be the products of the meanings and taken-for-granted assumptions of those who construct them.
Statstics in the USA are counted by the MINORITY, and NOT the majority, and most of the people who concoct these said 'factual statstics' not only lie, but can't seem to count, knowing how BIG this country actually is.
Exactly my point. Thats why i pay attention to none of them. They say 1/2 of blacks live below the poverty line. Thats bullshit. 73% of blacks live in comfortable situations. They say there are more black males in jail than college. Again, bullshit. There are 1 million black men in jail and twice the amount in colleges around the country. Like i said to you, those who make them project them to make their theories seem true, hence leaving the "victims of the statistics" and those around them fall into false consciousness.
Oh, just so you guys know, most blacks are middle class and do not live in the inner city. If black America were a separate country, its GDP would place it at No. 16 in the world.
