You can refer to the paragraph I added in an edit. I fully agree that any such crime is not a reason to marginalize a whole ethnic group. But you yourself acknowledge that criminals exist, and you spoke of addressing root causes for crime, so how do you address the root cause for those families I mentioned?
I’m not linking to said friend’s research here lest I dox her and myself on a subject that seems contentious enough for some HN readers to possibly cause trouble for her.
- hef19898 3y agoFair enough I guess, re doxxing. Crime exists, different crimes are committed by different groups. Saying those crimes are inherent, dor whatever reason, to certain groups is just a bad take. Those groups migjt be more prone to commit certain crimes due to circumstances, but than those circumstances need being further analyzed. And yes, property crimes, with an already frightingly low rate of successful police investigations, is easier for people being constantly on the move. One thing that is also true: marginalized, discrimintaed and sidelined groups are more likely to commit crimes. So, one reason would be to offer alternatives, and as a society accept them as they are. Doesn't mean zero crime will be committed, but then again crime is a general problem that will never ever go away ever.
