Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Criminal stereotype of African Americans, you may be blocked from editing. bonadea contributions talk 07:27, 21 July 2019 (UTC)

Response: How dare you suggest I am vandalizing anything? Where's the "assume good faith" attitude (that you espouse to in your "talk" page) in your reckless treatment of my edit, and in the instantaneous threat of blocking me? I provided good and valuable additions to the subject matter (to show the other side of the story, because the article was very one-sided) with official data, removed two empty citations that didn't mean anything (ex: "Tucker, pg. 4"), corrected the way a sentence or two was written to make them coherent (not to change the underlying meaning in any significant way), and didn't actually REMOVE anything that was already on the article except for a sentence that literally didn't make sense. In total, I just added new information. You, as well as the fellow that came before you, are reverting my factually-correct good-faith additions on ideological grounds. You have no reason to revert them or to pretend it is vandalism except for the fact that you disagree with said information being put there, even though it's the truth. Well, tough: Censorship is not the way to go, nor the spirit of Wikipedia. It would be foolish to presume that the stereotype being described in the article has literally zero grounding in reality, and that it's just the product of some conspiracy by a corrupt society; but it isn't. It's not a good thing that the stereotype exists, and it's not a good thing that the underlying reasons for it do either (be it the actual crime rates or the unjust treatment by the judicial system); but those are simply the facts (on both sides).

I am now going to revert your undoing, because that is the closest thing to "vandalism" that has happened in that page since I made my edit. If you think the page can be improved with further information or rephrasing of certain things, feel free to edit it; in fact, there are sentences in it that don't even make grammatical sense from long before I touched it, and I see you're a linguist. But undoing another man's work (which is literally based on data, unlike 90% of the text currently on the page; based on plenty of assumptions and hollow social theory, and written at the high-school level if at all intelligible), undoing the work with one click just because you don't like what you see (and not because the information is wrong or there is any actual wrongdoing being committed), is not the way to go. Either make a positive contribution to the article, or don't intrude; Wikipedia is not a place designed to safeguard an ideology above the actual truth.
