Careful, your non-racist side is showing here.
If every ethnicity has some fucked-up, losers in their pool, what, really is the point of bringing up race? It's parenting, it's poverty, it's stupidity but race in and of itself isn't the deciding factor as to how people will behave.
I will acknowledge that certain minority groups have more people in them committing crimes etc. but I think that's a cultural, "nurture" issue vs. just because they happened to be born black (or brown).
