Like imagine if you said the same thing about black people's crime rate. The whole problem with this is who's recording the statistics. It's nothing to do with genes.

Don't compare black people to dogs. Also dogs are selectively bred for their genes.

I'm comparing discrimination to discrimination. Crime stats are pushed by a broken system with bias. So are these dog statistics.
