Default Implicit Association Test - 05-26-2005, 08:29 PM

There was a report today that said in Kingston Ontario, cops are 3.5 times more likley to pull a black person over than a white person. On CBC they showed this test by Harvard university that claims to show whether you have a preference for one race or the other.

They also have a ton of other tests.

I came out as slightly preferential to white people. They say that most people are preferential to white people, even people of other races I suppose because of the way we are brought up.

dunno, call me racist if you want, but if there were more white folks running around shooting , robbing , stabbing , drug dealing, and gang banging, im sure the same would apply.

its common sense really, if a group of people commit more crime than another, target that group.

Are there stats that show Blacks are more criminal than whites?

In my opinion, Police should pull over people who are doing something wrong. Pulling someone over because they are of a certain race I can't agree with.

Here's the story:

well, i'm not sure if the numbers work. But I'm guessing that the number of black that commit crimes in comparision to the total black population is greater than the number of whites that commit crimes in comparision to the total white population.

But that really doesn't justify pulling over a black person. If you're in an inner city though, african americans are most likely gonig to be the majority ---> more arrests in high concentrated population zone

Your data suggest a moderate automatic preference for White People relative to Black People
