High time you've identified white offenders - I'm guessing fully 85 percent of photos previously featured in Guilford County's Most Wanted have been photos of black offenders -

More than 88% of violent crime IS committed by the black population in Greensboro . . . rapes, home invasions, corner stickups, car jacks, drugs, prostitution, robbery, gang violence . . . re-read your statistical data . . . we know who the real blight is on our Greensboro community and our Nation . . . statistics don't lie . . .

You are right J Peterman Reality Tour! However if you only understood the systematic intentional removal of resources that plague the black community then, you would understand how the statistics were CREATED and perpetuated. So we must unify so that our future does not hold on to discrimination due to race.

Just because Im struggling, doesnt mean I have to comit a crime to make a living. The statement of removing resources that plaque the black community is a joke. The resources are there, but people abuse the resources and therefor they are made harder to receive. I know people right now that are sitting at home, collecting unemployment checks, and not even attempting to look for a job. They said why look for a job when I can collect and not work. Thats pathetic and unfortunately there are more out there that are the same. Its not that the resources are gone, its that some people want a free hand out and are just plain lazy. Blacks have more rights today than any other person in this country, and to say otherwise is just ignorant.

Excuse me ya'll, but the point here is to notify the public about CRIMINALS. When I get on an airplane, I don't care what race or sex the pilot is....only that he or she can fly the darn plane. Same principal applies, more or less here: I don't care what race or sex the accused criminal is, as long as we can bring him or her to justice and reduce the crime rate here. Tallying up crooks by race is a waste of time.

If you look at the "Related Links" where all of the active most wanted persons are listed, 5 are white, 2 are hispanic, 8 are black, and 1 is asian. That is very much in line with the perportions for those committing crimes in general.
