The correlation between the two maps has nothing to do with anyones bias. Facts are simply facts. What correlation? The two maps I saw were very different. Well... let's just get the list then. 1 Detroit, MI 82.7 590,226 2 Jackson, MS 79.4 137,716 3 Miami Gardens, FL 76.3 81,776 4 Orangeburg, SC 75.04 13,964 5 Birmingham, AL 73.4 155,791 6 Baltimore, MD 63.7 395,781 7 Memphis, TN 63.3 409,687 8 New Orleans, LA 60.2 206,871 9 Baton Rouge, LA 58.5 126,250 10 Wilmington, DE 58 41,326 11 Flint, MI 56.6 57,939 12 Savannah, GA 55.4 75,507 13 Augusta, GA 54.7 107,182 14 Shreveport, LA 54.7 109,022 15 Montgomery, AL 54.5 116,524 16 Atlanta, GA 54.0 226,894 17 Cleveland, OH 53.3 211,672 16 Portsmouth, VA 53.3 50,878 17 Harrisburg, PA 52.4 25,957 18 Newark, NJ 52.4 145,085 19 Valdosta, GA 51.1 27,860 20 Washington, D.C. 50.7 305,125 21 Richmond, VA 50.6 103,342 22 Mobile, AL 50.6 98,691 23 St. Louis, MO 49.2 157,160 24 Danville, VA 48.3 43,055 25 Beaumont, TX 47.3 55,931 26 N Charleston, SC 47.2 45,964 27 Jackson, TN 45.7 29,802 28 Columbus, GA 45.5 86,398 29 Cincinnati, OH[3] 45.0 133,157 30 Saginaw, MI 44.9 23,127 Top 83 (and similar lists) here - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_o...an_populations Many of the other 'hot spots' on the map the OP linked to are made up of large hispanic populations.

I moaned loudly as those demons exited my body and the noises made by the casting out of those demons were heard outside the temple of the porcelain god so that others may rejoice when it was their time to be blessed by the porcelain god His Holiness The Crapper. The porcelain god is revered by those of many faiths who loudly shout the names of their own deities when giving of themselves to the porcelain god. Outside the temple of the porcelain god, soul piercing wails of,"OH GOD, OH JESUS, ALLAH AKBAR" can often be heard when those within rid themselves of those demons inside them.

So let all rejoice for the existence of the porcelain god, for without The Crapper, there would be no way to flush away those demons and send them down the pipes to that hell of the sewage system. We must always have compassion for those who are unable to prevent the escape of their demons when they're outside the temple of the porcelain god, especially the very young who have yet to learn how to worship the porcelain god and realize the purpose of The Crapper. The very young must often be supervised in the presence of the porcelain god because the young ones don't understand the limitations of His Holiness and often try to flush away items other than their internal demons or those things appropriate for The Crapper to rid the world of. There are many times when a priest from The Order Of The Plumber must be called to wield his holy scepter, The Plunger, when the porcelain god is overwhelmed by too many demons or those things outside his power to control and can no longer perform his duties. Unfortunately, the porcelain god has yet to be embraced by everyone throughout the world and his worshipers can't always carry a temple with them so we must send out missionaries to spread word of The Crapper and teach the heathens of the wonders and benefits of worshiping His Holiness by preaching with great enthusiasm from The Book Of Poop. à²*€¿à²* [8~{} Uncle Holy Monster |

The map you, yourself provided, clearly doesn't show a positive correlation. In fact, it looks like a a negative correlation. The map of the 144 largest counties is empty in the wide belt from east Texas up to Washington DC. The black census map that you provided shows that wide belt as the HIGHEST percentage of blacks in the whole country. How you get a positive correlation out of that IDK. And your new list doesn't show it either. It's not ranked by numbers of blacks, it's a list of "Select cities with a large *percentage* of Black or African American people". And even in that list cities with a high percentage of blacks are Orangeburg SC, Birmingham AL, New Orleans, Jackson MS, Baton Rouge, and Wilmington DE. Those aren't on the list of the largest 141 counties. Given that broad belt from East TX all the way to Washington DC, I find it hard to believe that the vast majority of blacks live in those 141 largest counties. But, my main point was that the map you claimed shows a correlation, actually suggests the opposite, if anything. Many of the other 'hot spots' on the map the OP linked to are made up of large hispanic populations. That is to say mainly the eastern coast as well as TX and CA. http://www.censusscope.org/us/map_se..._hispanic.html Hispanics blacks |

And again, how does that show this: "the vast majority of the black population resides in those 144 largest counties. "? There is a huge, wide dark red and purple belt from East Texas all the way up to the Washington DC/MD area on the map you provided. That's the area with the counties that have the highest percentage of blacks. That same area has just a few hits on the map with the 144 largest counties. So, obviously there are a lot of blacks in the USA in that red/purple area that are not in the 144 largest counties. They are in smaller counties, spread over a huge geographic area. How many there are there in absolute numbers, IDK, but neither do you. With that wide swatch across a large geographic area, it clearly doesn't prove the claim. All it shows is that the 144 counties correlate with having a higher concentration of blacks. That doesn't equate with the vast majority of the USA black population residing in those 144 counties. There is a big difference. You haven't even shown that it's a majority at all. It may be, but nothing here proves it so far. I'll leave it for others to judge who's simple minded. |

A few weeks ago, I thanked the gods that there was a porcelain god. I had an appointment at the hospital to have a camera shoved up my tailpipe so I was required to consume the holy sacrament,"GoLYTELY" which gave me an irresistible urge to give of myself to the porcelain god until I had no more to give. I was so fortunate to be in close proximity to the porcelain god so I could cleanse my soul of the demons within. I moaned loudly as those demons exited my body and the noises made by the casting out of those demons were heard outside the temple of the porcelain god so that others may rejoice when it was their time to be blessed by the porcelain god His Holiness The Crapper. The porcelain god is revered by those of many faiths who loudly shout the names of their own deities when giving of themselves to the porcelain god. Outside the temple of the porcelain god, soul piercing wails of,"OH GOD, OH JESUS, ALLAH AKBAR" can often be heard when those within rid themselves of those demons inside them. Those demons belonging to that prince of darkness, The Great Feces. So let all rejoice for the existence of the porcelain god, for without The Crapper, there would be no way to flush away those demons and send them down the pipes to that hell of the sewage system. We must always have compassion for those who are unable to prevent the escape of their demons when they're outside the temple of the porcelain god, especially the very young who have yet to learn how to worship the porcelain god and realize the purpose of The Crapper. The very young must often be supervised in the presence of the porcelain god because the young ones don't understand the limitations of His Holiness and often try to flush away items other than their internal demons or those things appropriate for The Crapper to rid the world of. There are many times when a priest from The Order Of The Plumber must be called to wield his holy scepter, The Plunger, when the porcelain god is overwhelmed by too many demons or those things outside his power to control and can no longer perform his duties. Unfortunately, the porcelain god has yet to be embraced by everyone throughout the world and his worshipers can't always carry a temple with them so we must send out missionaries to spread word of The Crapper and teach the heathens of the wonders and benefits of worshiping His Holiness by preaching with great enthusiasm from The Book Of Poop. ???

Let me correct myself -- and state in MY words -- Those huge majority of those 144 largest counties are made up of the highest concentration of blacks. Does that make it all better for you? That is what I took the OP as meaning as opposed to the literal majority number of blacks. Does that make you feel better? You can now pat yourself on the back and tell all your friends what great work you did. |

Let me correct myself -- and state in MY words -- Those huge majority of those 144 largest counties are made up of the highest concentration of blacks. Does that make it all better for you? I guess that depends on what you mean by "the highest concentration" of blacks. If you mean by percentage of population, then the map you provided shows that isn't true, because the highest percentage concentration is through that wide belt from East TX, up through MD. If you mean that in those 144 largest counties you will find the largest absolute numbers of blacks, then yes, because that was never in question. That is what I took the OP as meaning as opposed to the literal majority number of blacks. That may be what you took it to mean, but it's clearly not what was stated: "if you were to overlay a map of the black population over your map you would find that the vast majority of the black population resides in those 144 largest counties. " That statement would imply that perhaps two thirds or 75%+ of all blacks in the USA live in those 144 counties. And note, IDK if that's true or not, only that the map you provided doesn't prove it. Does that make you feel better? You can now pat yourself on the back and tell all your friends what great work you did. Well, the facts do matter. |
