The 50% figure refers to arrests for violent crimes, not the actual number of crimes committed. Arrest data is an unreliable measure of criminal behavior because it is not an indicator of guilt and is subject to police bias.

Political extremism/mass homicide is heavily dominated by the right for the past 2-3 decades (by a huge margin). Majority of that violence is carried out by caucasian males. The cycle of poverty and street violence can trap any child, so it’s more likely to be a minority today due to generational poverty and societal history. Read There Are No Children Here to understand it better.

Trump never banned Muslims from traveling to the US, he banned all travel from a list of about a dozen nations that had terrorism issue, and Obama did the same thing with those same nations

Is “banning travel from some countries = blaming an entire race.” Your best argument? He didn’t ban travel from all Muslim countries, let alone all Muslims. And I don’t realize “Muslim” was a race in the first place.

Incorrect. Obama suspended the processing of refugee applications only for Iraq after arresting 2 Iraqi refugees on US soil for an active terror threat. Trump issued an EO against 6+ predominantly muslim countries with NO specific inciting incident, and not only suspended refugee processing but also travel for immigrant and nonimmigrant visa holders. The ban was court ordered to be revised TWICE for lack of security foundation and violating discrimination protections

It was quite literally known colloquially as the muslim ban for targeting predominantly muslim countries without a security cause or legal foundation. It was struck down and ordered to be revised from the court TWICE for religious and ethnic discrimination and no justification

He literally used a list made by the Obama admin which restricted immigration from all of these nations and the nations had been identified as high threat terror hot beds. Show me the SCOTUS case that struck it down. I’ll wait

Obama used that list to make incredibly focused decisions. Anything he did was limited to an intentional, targeted scope and narrow focus. He didn’t wildly ban all types of travel from any one country willy-nilly. I said court not SCOTUS. It goes to federal court BEFORE it can reach SCOTUS, and the ban was blocked as “unconstitutionally tainted with animus toward Islam” by the federal district court in Maryland, whose decision was then upheld by the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals.

you’re doing backflips to avoid the point now. Is banning a religious group any better than banning a race? The preview overreached any normal boundaries of a ban and was without foundation for a security threat; it didn’t specify heightened processes, certain types of travel, refugees, or even one region or country. Federal courts struck it down twice

When the SCOTUS rules it unconstitutional then come talk to me. What one federal judge or circuit judge says isn’t final and doesn’t speak for the entire judiciary. How could it possible target Muslims when there were Muslims from most Muslim nations still allowed in and given that the travel restrictions on those nations were for anyone, not specifically Muslims

I’m not even bringing up bias you keep doing that. If you want to discuss that stat you need to identify it (the 52%) and explain it with legible sentences. That wasn’t a study with 500 samples that was a TOTAL of violent political killings confirmed to be motivated by extremism.

The ban was from his first term and no longer in effect, that’s how. After multiple revisions and judicial blocks, the conservative supreme court *shockingly* đŸ˜± upheld the newest edit. But it was biased enough towards islam that federal courts blocked it 2x. I wasn’t arguing it’s unconstitutional, I was arguing that he DOES discriminate against races and religious groups at times, and his lack of purpose or restraint IS specific to his presidency, not republicans or presidents as a whole

What the SCOTUS says is final, not what lower courts say, particularly one judge who had their own political biases too. So using them as proof that this is racial discrimination is debatable at best. Again, their opposition to it was purely political because logically it makes no discrimination towards Muslims, the order targets nations and it targets all people from those nation regardless of religion, and those nations are a fraction of all the Muslim majority nations in the world.

Also, Islam is purely a religion, not an ethnicity or ethnic-based group at all, so this still isn’t an example of racial discrimination.

It’s debatable to disregard other courts simply because SCOTUS is the highest law of the land. Yes, they made final ruling. No, they weren’t presented with the same versions blocked by the lower (still influential & less political) courts which cited religious discrimination. Again, whether it’s allowed or not is convoluted and irrelevant to “Name a time DT had ever blamed one race or religion.” Even though it wasn’t confined to muslims, it targeted those areas without a goal

Well if that example doesn’t satisfy you could very well argue he exemplifies ethnic discrimination with how he’s commanding ICE to target hispanics, and pushed that through SCOTUS too. He even defied SCOTUS when they demanded his admin facilitate a citizen’s return after unlawful deportation, justifying it by saying they didn’t have to “accomplish” that but only “help via facilitating”

He should’ve return a citizen who was wrongfully deported, but what ICE is doing isn’t an example of racial discrimination given that they are deporting people based on immigration status, regardless of ethnicity. Otherwise they wouldn’t be deporting white people with European nations of origin

the formatting is weird, but the “deadlink” is literally the NIH, our government (maybe the world’s) premier research institution. 2nd is a research organisation specialising in fairer, more accurate studies and sampling. NBC consolidates and simplifies a lot of the data in the other sources, I added it for those who won’t take the time to go through them if they’re too wordy or academic. Can you link your 52% study too and maybe get to the topic instead of just poking around for any hole?

The racial and ethnic component doesn’t stemming from the lack of white and european deportees, it’s from the unethical detainment and deportation of US citizens and Visa holders simply by profiling their appearance and accent. Targeting that caricature then deporting or “losing” those citizens and refugees, holding legal residents for 12+ hours without accepting their papers isn’t due process, and neither is revoking visas from activists who speak publicly against the situation.

What the opponents of a bill colloquially call that bill does not mean someone is blaming an entire race. And I’m not doing backflips, “this ban doesn’t restrict Muslims” pretty readily leads to “this is not a Muslim ban.”

If they aren’t discriminating based on race then it isn’t racist smh, they are detaining and deporting based on legal status, otherwise they’d have a long way to go for the 60+ million Latinos in the US, plus they wouldn’t be treating white illegal immigrants the same way. If you don’t agree with what Trump’s doing that’s one thing, but thinking it’s racist is just dumb.
