ROUGH DRAFT.

Since before the begining of civilization, humans have been struggling with violence. A number of crimes take place every minute in the United States. A rising question has erupted concerning crime in the U.S. What kind of people are commiting most of these crimes ? When proportioned with other groups of people, African-American males particularly commit a higher number of ofenses. However, there are of course many people who argue this concept. Some beleive that minorities are most likely to commit crimes. Others disagree, stating that it strictly depends on what type of crimes are being observed. These people beleive that African- Americans and other minorities are more likely to commit acts of domestic violence while white Americans commit worser crimes, such as "while collar" violence.
