I’m sure you all know about the 13% of the population commits 52% of murders. And also greater than the population for violent crimes. And I encourage you to do research on hate crimes and which groups commit them, in the present, and also on rape and robbery statistics. To be fair, there is also ‘white collar’ crime, but that is not what people think about when they think of crime.
