Straight out of the white supremacist movement's playbook.

I think the last time I read over at stormfront, they had a list of "arguments" to be used in conversations and on internet boards to "engage" potential converts to their cause by challenging those who support diversity and equality; or to confuse the shit out of good people who give others the "benefit of the doubt."

Some examples, "I'm not a white supremacist/racist, I'm just proud of my heritage." When talking about crime, as noted in the OP, always switch to "black-on-black" crime. Whenever any inequality is brought up, use Jews/women/blacks/hispanics/gays/etc. as the scapegoat for whatever problem a person has, i.e., "if only those (insert group) weren't allowed to vote/work/etc., your life would be so much better."

The underlying theme is to muddy the waters and create as much doubt as possible while appearing to be "polite," "rational, and "logical," while lying with carefully chosen "statistics," numbers and personal anecdata (anecdotes presented as factual information).
