[Publib] Ugly battle has librarians in Oak Brook turning

[backwage at aol.com]

Would anybody care to venture the proportion of male to female felons?   I recall my old probation caseload was about 95% male.  

By the way, the strongest traits associated with crime are:  Male status, followed by youth.  No other factor is nearly as good a determinant.  Cops have been profiling for years--they just look for young men.  In answer to the comment, off the top of my head, I can think of several million vile men.  The women that come to mind are all relations, and I may be prejudiced.

Off the top of my head I can think of several unpleasant women, who propound the philosophy of self-interest, and reject the concept of public good:  Ayn Rand, Phyllis Schlafly, Ann Coulter.  
 
>Some people are simply vile.  Nearly all of them are men.
I have never noticed any particular link between gender and "vileness."
I have met as many unpleasant women as men.
