The aftermath of James Watson’s statements on race is that more and more websites and even the New York Times are coming out that Watson was right. We can contrast the approach of hypothesis testing and personal attacks.
Hypothesis Testing Method. Formulate hypotheses that disagree on one or more key points. To the extent the data allows, try to have two hypotheses that differ on one point. Test the hypotheses. Develop better hypotheses. Realize that either the hypotheses are false, or there are approximations made in implementation so that what is tested in practice is always false.
Quantum mechanics is believed true. However, the cases you can get an exact solution always ignore something, and so are approximations. So even with our best theory, we know that the formula tested in practice is always false, because it always leaves something out. Even for the hydrogen atom, there are approximations even in radiative corrections. Higher orders are too difficult to calculate. The structure of the proton is typically ignored. Exotic virtual particles are ignored.
In social science, we are too lazy to even write down what we know are the exceptions. This is true at every level from a comment at WaPo or Raw Story up to major textbooks. Writing down all the detail we already know is too exhausting. So in practice, we just stop at some point. Since its understood this is leaving stuff out, liberals immediately pounce by calling this stopping point racist.
This brings us to the personal attack method. In Personal Attack, truth is another name for victory. In fact, in Personal Attack, the bigger win is to force someone to say what is true is false. Its a game of humiliation, and the bigger humiliation is to get someone to apologize for saying the truth, but not because the truth hurts, but by falsely saying the truth is false.
Personal Attack is destructive. It prevents society or institutions or groups or individuals from acting on the truth that they already know. When a society is ruled by Personal Attack it falls. This is what is happening to Western Civilization. It is bringing in 3rd world immigrants who are bringing down the level of the West just like Japan’s Prime Minister said in the 1980′s. He was forced to apologize under Personal Attack for saying the truth.

Japan prime minister America minorities
The best thing Japan has ever tried to do for non-Japanese is tell America the truth while its destroying itself. If Japan could help save America from self-destruction it would be, other than building themselves up, the greatest contribution they could make to the world. America keeps rejecting this help, which it desperately needs.
We need an America that can say race matters and its the white race that built America and is needed to stay in the majority to keep America America. The same applies to Europe, Canada and Australia. Until we can say it, we can’t do it. If we don’t stop third world immigration, we will lose White Civilization. We have to speak up now. If we can’t say it, we can’t save it.

LEAD: Japan’s Justice Minister said today that he wanted to send ”my deepest apologies to the American people” for comparing foreign prostitutes in Tokyo to American blacks who move into white neighborhoods and ”ruin the atmosphere.”
The Justice Minister, Seiroku Kajiyama,
What does the US DOJ say?
http://www.ojp.usdoj.gov/bjs/homicide/race.htm
Racial differences exist, with blacks disproportionately represented among homicide victims and offenders
In 2005, homicide victimization rates for blacks were 6 times higher than the rates for whites.
Graphs are at DOJ Webpage. DOJ Webpage copied below after discussion, but one graph at least cutoff.
The point of hypothesis testing is to learn the truth, or at least eliminate the grosser errors about something. The point of personal destruction is to avoid admitting gross errors about something. Personal Attack means maintaining policies based on gross errors after the bad results of the gross error policies are manifest.
Affirmative action, immigration, welfare, etc. have brought down the level of the Western world. The whites built up a level of civilization, and immigration has partly taken it down. Streets are unsafe. There are no-go zones in countries that never had no-go zones before. The schools don’t teach math and science but that whites are racist. The destruction of a great civilization is going on before us. We saw immigrant crime on 9-11 and the president praised it as the religion of peace, after he got through with his reading.
This society celebrates its destruction and gives it names like diversity. In real life, diversity is a crime indicator. In real life, diversity is schools to be avoided. In real life, diversity is an emergency room to be avoided. Diversity is destruction.
