Topics can still suck when three or four people are chatting about it.

i think black people are just as likely to commit crimes as anyone else. it's all about human nature NOT skin colour
its the same with social backgrounds. just because people come from the "working class" doesn't mean they are more likely to commit crimes than those who come from the "upper classes". I am "working class" and i have never even thought about commiting crimes.
though having said that maybe its more a case of being exposed to more chances/needs for crime than in other areas/ways of life.
hmmmmmm
tricky subject really

I don't believe that people with less 'opportunities' or 'chances' have more need for crime.

I know that's not what you're saying, but I can't stand when people imply that young criminals should be treated more lightly because they didn't get enough opportunities.

"regardless of social status?" did you possibly add this after I voted? Think

I think we should be able to change our vote.

Neil ignored my request so I did it for him. I've now changed my vote based on the fact I think the poll question was changed after I voted.

Actually yes. My time online has been reduced from about 10+ hours a day, to about 1 or less. And I'm a very busy guy.

Besides which, if you really want me to be pernikity (sp), then you said "I think we should be able to change our vote". You never actually requested me to do anything
