In de Verenigde Staten is men er achter gekomen dat misdaad een kleur heeft.
Ook bij moeten noodgedwongen steeds meer mensen toegeven dat misdaad vooral gerelateerd kan worden aan ras, herkomst en cultuur.

Major Findings
l There is more black-on-white than black-on-black violent crime.
l Of the approximately 1,700,000 interracial crimes of violence involving
blacks and whites, 90 percent are committed by blacks against whites.
Blacks are therefore up to 250 times more likely to do criminal violence to
whites than the reverse.
l Blacks commit violent crimes at four to eight times the white rate.
Hispanics commit violent crimes at approximately three times the white rate,
and Asians at one half to three quarters the white rate.
l Blacks are twice as likely as whites to commit hate crimes.
l Hispanics are a hate crime victim category but not a perpetrator category.
Hispanic offenders are classified as whites, which inflates the white
offense rate and gives the impression that Hispanics commit no hate crimes.
l Blacks are as much more dangerous than whites as men are more
dangerous than women.
