Thanks for the new thread.
Just to correct Nomas’s final false claim on the previous thread, as everybody else will have seen when I posted the spreadsheet splitting the data provided by the CPS/ MOJ (of prosecutions and convictions for rape last year, by ethnicity) I specifically stated that I had used this data and split it per capita of population. That was the entire point of the spreadsheet I posted.
The data regarding the ethnic makeup of the whole UK population as a percentage by ethnicity - the categories that the CPS used to record the crime data - are used across Government and also by the ONS to provide data on the UK population as a whole, so I simply used the MOJ data and ONS data and basic maths to add extra columns showing the number of prosecutions/ convictions per 10,000 of population. This was important to add to the thread because some people were making absurd comments like “most rapes are committed by white men” when in the UK that will obviously be the case because the vast majority of the population is white. What is important is the relative risk that men from different cultures pose to women and children.
This was all explained in the previous thread, but Nomas appeared to have progressed from stating that the data wasn’t included in the thread and there was no difference in offending rates by ethnicity, to then claiming the data wasn’t valid. Then when a link to its publicly available source was provided, he/ she seems to have been trying to claim that the percentages of UK population of each ethnicity are invented despite this data also being publicly available via the ONS.
Yet still, unsurprisingly, her/ his only response was repeated and increasingly ridiculous attempts to try to dispute the validity of publicly available data and basic maths, even with a spreadsheet provided so that anybody who wishes to could verify the mathematical calculations.
He/ she has still provided absolutely no answer as to whether a) he/she believes that we should not discuss the fact that the data shows that men from some ethnicities/ cultural backgrounds are ten times more likely to commit rape as others because this might hurt people’s feelings, and that this fact shouldn’t impact our decisions on who we decide to allow to come to live in the UK because she/ he thinks that the women and children who are exposed to avoidable and higher risks of rape as a result should just be considered collateral damage; or b) whether she/ he will cease their repeated attempts to pretend - contrary to all of the data - that all men pose the same risk to women and children.
I wonder whether we’ll ever get an answer.
