The President’s PrejudicesWhy do the human sciences record pervasive behavioral differences among racial groups, such as in violent-crime rates? One explanation is that these disparities originate in complex interactions between nature and nurture. But, of course, only dangerous extremists hold that theory. The much more respectable sentiment is that statistical differences among the races are the fault of bad white people, such as George Zimmerman and Minnesota policeman Jeronimo Yanez. ... All this might suggest that authority figures such as the president and the Democratic front-runner should be cautious before demagogically promoting conspiracy theories about white racism murdering black bodies. You know, that might just help inspire some black ragehead to, say, shoot a lot of white cops in Dallas.
