are Hispanics more well off, financially, than many believe?

[VerbalIntercourse]

Just looking at the homicide rates. We can safely assume that most homicides are within race, so I think it's better to look at the victim data than perp data. The perp data can be seriously biased by systemic racism.

If poverty can explain crime, then why do hispanics have such a low contribution to the homicide rate relative to their population size?

Murder in America - WSJ.com

Hispanic victims: 21,047
Black victims: 78,521
White victims: 58,989

Hispanic population: 50,477,594 16.4%
Black population: 38,929,319 12.6
White population: 223,553,265 72.4


Traditionally hispanic cities like San Jose, El Paso and Los angeles are actually very low on the violent crime rankings?

United States cities by crime rate - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

They seem to have the same median income as African Americans, yet they have a very low contribution to the violent crime total. What explains this? Is there a different distribution curve for hispanic income?

Not really but Hispanics are trending upward, African Americans have been stagnant now for the past 2 decades.

Depends on which Hispanics you speak of. Dominicans and Ricans are generally still mired in poverty as a whole.

Fluctuates with others.

because the more dead you are the less money you make

Also
PoZ....Stockton and Oakland would like to have a word with you.
Hispanics, much to my chagrin, do dirt, clearly not on the same level as whites and blacks.

Crap like this only highlight the shytty situation many AA people face today.

I wonder the correlation to murders and broken homes, i bet that shyt is sky high.

 

[daze23]

depends if you sit around thinking about race all day

 

[tru_m.a.c]

stockton and oakland are not traditionally hispanic cities like san jose.


Sociologists and other academics explain that crime and violence is associated with socioeconomic status. Low income pushes people
To commit crimes.

however we have two groups with similar incomes, but they have wildly different crime rates. doesn't make
Sense.

what the hell does "tradition" have to do with numbers?
Both those cities boast higher Hispanic populations vs that of AA. That was my point.

I don't know.

It may have to do with the way they are raised. Like they don't have entitlement issues. They have a work ethic. You know, first you get the money. Then, you get the power. Then, you get the women. If you watched Scarface, he didn't steal money. He worked for it.
