To Alan B.

Your premise with Hasbeen is that the reason for the very high rates of black African crime is because of a lack of social benefits in the USA. And that white collar crime is ignored because it is perpetrated by whites.

Not so, grasshopper. One report on US crime rates I read (which I admittedly can not confirm with a link) reported that the rate of black African "white collar crime" in the USA was higher than for whites.

Your second premise could do with some work. If all you need to do to prevent crime was to have a good social security system, then western societies should be almost crime free. As a matter of fact, when social security programs were first touted and detractors pointed to the expense, the proponents claimed that social security programs would eliminate crime. Instead, all it does is subsidize criminals. There are numerous examples of serious criminals who never stop committing crime's, who are on the dole and reside in public housing.

Next, the UK has some of the most generous social security programs in the world, which is why so many black and brown people illegally cross the channel to get to the UK. But in Britain (surprise, surprise) it is the black African "Yardie" gangs who are running around stabbing people, and so it is hardly surprising that black Africans are very disproportionately represented in serious criminal behavior in the UK.

Now I will toss some real logic at you and se if you can figure out which one is right. Thee are two racist explanations to explain black dysfunction in western societies. The first racist argument is "white privilege." This presupposes that somehow, white society is keeping black people down.

The second racist argument is, that black African people on average have a much lower IQ level that whites or Asians, and that they have a much higher genetic predisposition to violent behavior than other races.

Lock yourself in your dark closet, collate all data, and try and figure out which racist argument is the more likely.

If 69% of NFL players are black, isnt that racism? Shouldn't the US government immediately use affirmative action and positive discrimination to ensure that proportions of white and black NRL players reflect the population proportions? Perhaps you would approve of a quotas for white and black players?

Or perhaps you could grow a brain and figure out that black Africans excel at any sport involving running because of their genetic makeup. So that is why they are over represented as players. And coaches need more brains so they are over represented as coaches.

It might be racist to bring the best African athletes to western countries denying the African countries their resources.
