this is a pretty racist comment, haha. . . . an equally as offensive joke, wouldnt be accepted as much, like if you said if you think of a rapist you think of a black man. . . ohhh boy, would that not go over well. . . . . . .

More than 80% of all people defined as serial killers in the US are Caucasian males. Also, in film and literature, serial killers are most often white men (ie, Hannibal Lecter). It's just something interested I noticed, and I was curious to see if this statistical fact and common media portrayal influenced the way people saw serial killers. I'm sorry if I offended you. That wasn't my intent.

Literally no one took offense to this. I'm white and I don't think it's racist. It's just an observation.

Rule of thumb: If it's directed towards white people, it's not racist, son.

Black people don't do crazy shit. They steal, sell drugs, and then get the fuck out. White people have to go torture people and decapitate bitches.

In my head, serial killers, pedophiles, and rapists are white. Thieves, gang members, and regular killers are black/hispanic. Asians own laundromats and stay out of everything. And they're always being robbed by black people.

I imagined Asians if to be generally assigned were either part of an Asian mafia or owning things like laundromats.

I never ever think of asians as being part of anything violent, even though history suggests otherwise.

I started thinking this when I was watching a document I think about mafias

It would be amazing if China decided to go to war withthe US and all the laundromat washing machines turned into missile launchers, spydrones etc.

I think it is a man but he thought ahead and made it so he can't be reported so I don't really imagine a skin colour but he is covered. I don't imagine a women being a serial killer though because of all the things I have watched show women leaving witnesses or not being covered up or anything else that gets her caught because I imagine serial killers being successful serial killers.

Yeah, and thanks to all of the shows with serial killers, I always think of an attractive white man. Which is just disturbing. I don't care to be attracted to a murderer.

I find it interesting that everyone's talking about the race part, but no one's commented on the fact that I specified "man".

It pisses me off so much. Society is so negatively prejudiced towards the white male.
