Comments on: SU discusses results of racial profiling survey http://www.studlife.com/news/2009/11/02/su-discusses-results-of-racial-profiling-survey/ The independent newspaper of Washington University in St. Louis Mon, 13 Feb 2012 18:22:48 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Tay http://www.studlife.com/news/2009/11/02/su-discusses-results-of-racial-profiling-survey/#comment-4137 Tay Tue, 17 Nov 2009 05:53:11 +0000 http://www.studlife.com/?p=6723#comment-4137 Between 15-20 people showed up for this Town Hall meeting? I assume one of them was the reporter of this story. About that many usually show up to my Friday 8am sub-section, that doesn't mean we should write an article about it. Evidently people don't care. Dear StudLife, Write something people care about. Thanks. Between 15-20 people showed up for this Town Hall meeting? I assume one of them was the reporter of this story.

Dear StudLife,

Write something people care about.

Thanks.

I'm not personally familiar with this data but I assume WUPD is. My assumption would be (based on data about larger areas on which data is available) that black people commit a higher percentage of crimes than white people. I think this statistic is fairly consistent across the country. The liberal (WashU bubble) readership of this paper will be quick to label this a racist statement but I'm only reporting what is fact. If people wearing white t-shirts as opposed to green t-shirts committed crimes in higher percentages and this information was also fairly consistent than I would not be offended if in an effort to keep campus safe, WUPD paid more attention to people wearing white t-shirts. I'm just saying. But since the whole race issue is involved then it becomes a different story to you guys and it suddenly becomes racial profiling, which you interpret as a statement of how backward certain people are. You lose all sense of logic. BLACK COPS USING RACAL PROFILING. They must be racist. Maybe it works.
