Thread: up gradeing pc's.

Well im not sure weather or not i should upgrade right now that things are droping in price. or if i should wait to see the the new quad platform amd's are a big hit. EX the fx-74 3.0ghz amd processor that came out. its the first amd dual core with dual processor compatablity !. but it woulld be pricy. and i havent even tryed my hand at the new AM2 CPU's.

Frito, I'd be glad to help. But instead of going through a laundry list of suggestions, I think your best option would be to peruse the other recently created topics on this matter. They should be in this forum.

No.

It's about culture, not skin colour. How can you suggest that someones skin colour defines the likelyhood they'll commit a crime?

Yes, crime rates would likely go down...there'd be less people idiot.

Oh and no, most of the crime here is one by whites.

It may not be biological or cultural aspects that are leading to the disparities. It may be that the criminal justice system is racist in it's practices at various levels.

For example, statistics have shown that whites and blacks use drugs at about the same rates. Then, why are blacks disproportionately arrested for drug crimes? Whites tend to live in the suburbs where they have more privacy. Police are not likely to catch a teen smoking pot in his parent's basement. In urban areas, where minorities tend to be concentrated, drug use tends to occur out in the open where police can easily observe it.

So, that's another twist on the situation. The problem may be the system rather than the people.

Blacks do commit more crimes than whites. Anyone who argues that is a moron.

"Guns don't kill people, but blacks cause a disproportionate amount of murder! Let's get rid of them!"

I am not suggesting we do this, I am just seeing what others have to say. If we did in fact "make disappear" all the blacks in the United States, who would bet money that crime rates would significantly go down in many communities? Also, would this crappy youth culture that pervades society disappear? Any comments?

Before you suggest something like we need to fix all of the corrupt judicial systems that wrongly convict black people. I have seen reports on the news about people serving 10 - 20 years for crimes they didn't commit and they were exonerated because of false evidence. Why should weonly get rid of black people? Do you think mexicans are just as bad, or are they OK with you?

Guns are not the problem. Christians are the problem. Kill 'em all.
