If you ignore these kind of things than you're doing nothing to help remedy them.

65% of black males in the USA? That's an interesting figure, would like to know the context/where you got it. Not out to be the politically correct police, just interested.

As for my life outside of PR, I'm a good for nothing student of chemistry and biology.

65% may be extreme, but the numbers are extreme no matter how you think of it

The disproportionate representation of black Americans in the U.S. criminal justice system is well documented. Blacks comprise 13 percent of the national population, but 30 percent of people arrested, 41 percent of people in jail,18 and 49 percent of those in prison. Nine percent of all black adults are under some form of correctional supervision (in jail or prison, on probation or parole), compared to two percent of white adults. One in three black men between the ages of 20 and 29 was either in jail or prison, or on parole or probation in 1995. One in ten black men in their twenties and early thirties is in prison or jail. Thirteen percent of the black adult male population has lost the right to vote because of felony disenfranchisement laws.

I'm 17, currently looking for a job. Might get one at a local radio station.
I'm a volunteer firefighter in my town with FireFighter 1 cert. (I can wear the SCBA and go inside burning structures), HazMat Awareness Cert., and working on my EMT-B certification.

These are from the burn day we had for our FireFighter 1 class.

(I'm the second one with the red helmet in the last picture)

I also play other games. BF2 AiX, NavyField, Eve Online, ChromeHounds, Ace Combat 6, ect.
