From my experience, a higher proportion of black people are involved in crime and drug dealing, which makes people wary of them.

There are also good black people, but people who dont know them, dont know who the good ones are.

Hence discrimination.

Maybe you missed the OP, but body odor has everything to do with the topic...

First time I was in Asia, late 90's, in Hanoi, as GM with a Viet owned restaurant chain. Not so many Europeans around in those days, and I was probably the first one most of the people I worked with had ever met. Just about every time I was introduced to a colleague they would shake my hand then take a couple of steps back. If i was in a situation where I was working alongside someone they would step away from me. After a while i managed to get someone to tell me why (with the aid of a lot of alcohol). Apparently i smelled real bad to them. Hey i said, i shower twice a day. They said it's just the way you smell, different, cheesy, just bad. So i just had to accept that i should not get too close, either that or stop eating cheese......but also I remember being on the London Underground and smelling the Yardies, a strong uncomfortable smell like burnt baked beans. That's not racist, any more than the vietnamese were to me, it's just different ethnicities. Fact.

Yes according to UK police statistics, blacks are responsible for the largest percentage of violent crimes and are also the largest race group in the prison population ( which seems to add up). However it also seems to be racist to state those facts, so let's all pretend the facts are wrong, and keep the white liberal vegan middle class tossers happy.

I don't think it is racist to state those facts. However it might be because of racism that those facts are facts.

Yes, very true. I strongly suspect that in the UK numerically there are more English born white males convicted of child sexual offences than any other race, creed or sex. I would hate to be labeled as a white vegan middle class tosser so I just wash my hands with bleach if I am forced to shake hands with an Englishman.

I forget the name of the black comedian who came up with the crime of "driving while black" as sufficient justification for being stopped by the police.

Haha now that is a racist statement if ever I heard one. BTW going by what I read online in UK papers it's the Pakis and their grooming gangs who do all the kiddy fiddling these days. Or is that a racist statement as well?
