By the way, I was doing a regression analysis the other day and I found a .53 correlation between high violent crime and racial demographics. Yes, the initial analysis showed that the more black people in your city, the more crime.And I'll ask again -- what will knowing that statistic do in the real world? What action would you take knowing that statistically more crime is committed by blacks in a given area?
Now is that causal? That takes more research on things like single parenthood, drop out rates, poverty, drug usage, and so many other independent variables to get a good answer. Not that Timmie would understand. Originally Posted by JD Barleycorn
