You are missing the point totally. The fact that you base the assumptions that because you see what you consider AA names in the paper in the crime section and therefore assume that black people are the reason for the rise in the crime rate is wrong!
A person named Kathy is liar and is a racist but not all Kathy's are those things but according to your logic, when I see a Kathy on my aol board, I should expect her to post racist stupid things that she will later claim are tests for us or is just a big sarcastic joker.
Seriously, the fact that there are people who think that the post was racist or at least had racist leanings. Why didn't you change the way you posted it instead of continuing the way it was posted?
And the mere fact that there are names that are in the AA baby name book still doesn't answer why that would make any difference. You still said that the names you think are AA are the cause of the rise in crime. So, in other words, so it is spelled out again.
Fact: The crime rate in your town is going up......no argument there as you provided prooof (
)
Fact: You say you provided names printed in the paper or at least some names you said were in the paper, I looked and didn't find any names printed anywhere in the crime blog that came close to the names you said were.....(if it were such an issue, I am sure you could print the crime blog for yesterday and we would find some names that could fit in here, why don't you do that so we all can see for ourselves and answer this once and for all)( shouldn't be hard as according to you, it is happening allllll the time, shoot every day)
Fact: As far as you are concerned, these two facts mean to you that the rise in crime is due to those people with AA sounding names (ie black people) living in the new ghetto in your town.
Falsehood: Names do not describe anyone. Anyone can name anyone anything they want within reason. To say that someone is black because you read their name and to correlate that with the crime rate is racist, to me and it appears to a bunch of other people. I don't care how many times you try and say it doesn't.
Start over and print the blog and let's see for ourselves.
