Statistically speaking. With data. And no opinion of my own, simply a logical conclusion derived from any equation created by using the available data. Does this support racism? I don't care and neither does the data, because data only exists as it does.

Except that's, you know, shit statistics. Most violent crime in most places is drug-related or like personal disputes. 'x group is more violent' is not at all the same thing as 'x group is particularly likely to be dangerous to me personally'. I live in a city with a relatively high crime rate, and it's like... not dangerous to just be walking down the street (if you're white and more or less look straight, anyway), even in parts of the city where there is a lot of crime.

So y'know 'probably' you're just racist.
