		<description>His statement alone is not racist, but if it stops at black=crime then it&#039;s racist. Kudos if one acknowledges the statistics but looks deeper to the cause (these aren&#039;t middle/upper class blacks in jail) however, intelligent bigots feel obliged to justify inane ideas, but will not look further than proving group A causes problem B but not WHY.

Statistics show a correlation between poverty and crime and that whites arrested for the same crimes are more likely acquitted. Most crime is intra-racial meaning by and against people of the same race, however white collar crimes hurts everyone. I&#039;d never suggest the abortion of innocent white baby boys with the belief of lowering the rates of white collar crime, serial killers, child abduction/molestation, rather we should address the cause or else statistics can be used to justify horrific crimes against humanity and or neglect of various groups.</description>

		<description>Bennett&#039;s comments are offensive and insensitive. It is not news that Blacks committ crimes. It is not politically incorrect to say so. But I do feel that even if he followed up and said that you could about every baby and reduce crime, the statement is one I am sure he wishes he never uttered.</description>

		<description>21: From the tone of all the comments, it looks like we&#039;re all in agreement that Bennett&#039;s comment, taken in context, is not racist.

At one job, I quoted in print as having said things that would never pass my lips, but that only had to happen once before I got very tough with the media from then on.

What I think this shows is that conservatives have to be very aware of not just what they say, but the worst way their statements will be taken. That&#039;s not pc, that&#039;s just picking your words carefully. None of us are making comments in a vacuum. I mean, what does it gain a person to make a point that&#039;s philosophically  sound, but gets that person (and everyone supporting that point of view) labeled as the very thing they decry?</description>

I don&#039;t understand why Bennett and others don&#039;t point this out themselves.</description>

		<description>Mike M.

I remember it EXACTLY like that.. he was pointing out the absurdity of the argument by following it to the most extreme conclusion......

why can&#039;t people understand this?  Are we to the point that white people should just shut up and never even utter the word &quot;black&quot;?  Even if to point out the racism of OTHERS???????

Jesus Harold Christ, this world is going to shit.</description>

		<description>To: Mike Kilo 

You state Bennett followed up with..â€you could abort EVERY baby in this country and eliminate crimeâ€.

I thought he said something like that also,but I have not found a reference to it or a transcript that includes it since, even though I emailed the show and encouraged them to include this.  I think this additional bit takes whatever little cause for claiming racism out of it all together.  Do you have a source, or just remember hearing it like I did??

Thanks</description>

		<description>15. True, Hitler killed many millions more than the Jews who went into the gas chamber, but he was off to a good start, without some timely intervention of the Allied Forces, he would&#039;ve succeeded in slaughtering the rest of Europe&#039;s Jews.

I know what you&#039;re saying, Fred, but I&#039;m not ready to say all of Germany knew what was going on. As I understand it, many were horrified when the concentration camps gave up the dead, the survivors and the &quot;experiments.&quot; The people thought he could solve their problems, but didn&#039;t know how he was going to go about doing it.

That sci-fi series &quot;V&quot; did a good job of retelling the Nazi&#039;s rise to power.

I&#039;m also thinking of that little 1970s history experiment called &quot;The Wave,&quot; or Jane Elliott&#039;s blue eye/brown eye exercise also show how easily people can be manipulated when fed enough of what they want to hear.</description>
