I see. Sorry, you don't get a pass here. Getting to truth is important. However, the way you want to go about it makes it very expensive for your audience. You want to say things that are true in a socially unacceptable way, and then leave it to us to do the work of questioning you extensively to figure out whether you are someone who is well versed in statistics and meant "deadbeat" "blacks", or if you are a Stormfront-style white supremacist and meant "deadbeat blacks". This thread is an example of that. If you want to be an effective persuader, you have to talk at your audience's level. If you want a giant thread on HN where your audience walks away believing exactly what they believed before they encountered you, keep doing what you are doing.
