No more racist than saying blacks are poorer as a group. Some are rich and some are poor. Some come from single-parent homes, some come from intact homes. But if we're going to look at the statistical likelihood of blacks being poor, then it's daft to ignore the statistical likelihood of blacks being raised in single-parent homes when we know being raised in a single-parent home correlates strongly to poverty.
We can't blot out whole avenues of rational inquiry and methodology just because it might make some people uncomfortable. Isn't that something the left mocks the conservative right over?
