My "line of reasoning" is a simple statement of fact since there's quibbling about demographic percentages. I made no claims about where or who, any claims about rape. Maybe you should learn not to make assumptions.

Likely because it's not civil, in particular "you should learn a little history".

Unnecessary condescending tone regardless of information delivery attempted if I had to hazard a guess.

> The problem with your line of reasoning is the rapes don't occur across the county at a proportional rate. The vast majority of those rape kits come from Detroit

That has not been my general experience. It has however been my experience that the forum expects a degree of civility from its participants. This remark is, in addition to being generally false, also condescending and fails to advance the discussion. Facts are welcome, insults are not.
